STATIONARY OBSTACLES (STEPS, KERBS, ETC.)
WARNING! Do not drive near raised surfaces, unprotected ledges, and/or drop-offs (kerbs,
porches, stairs, etc.).
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your scooter climb or descend an obstacle that is
inordinately high.
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your scooter proceed rearward down any step, kerb,
or other obstacle. This may cause the scooter to tip.
WARNING! Be sure your scooter is traveling perpendicular to any kerb you may be
required to ascend or descend. See figures 3 and 3A.
WARNING! Even though your scooter may be capable of handling greater obstacles, Pride
recommends that youd do not attempt to negotiate a kerb that has a height greater than
2 in (5 cm). Doing so could cause instability in your scooter.
INCLEMENT WEATHER PRECAUTIONS
Exposure of your scooter to inclement weather conditions should be avoided whenever possible. If sud-
denly caught up in rain, snow, severe cold, or heat while operating your scooter, proceed to shelter at the
earliest opportunity. Thoroughly dry your scooter before storing, charging, or operating your scooter.
PROHIBITED! Operating in rain, snow, salt, mist/spray conditions, and on icy/slippery sur-
faces can cause damage to the scooter and electrical system. Maintain and store your
scooter in a dry and clean condition.
WARNING! Prolonged exposure to hot or cold conditions may affect the temperature of
upholstered and non-upholstered items on the scooter, possibly resulting in skin irrita-
tion. Exercise caution when using your scooter in extremely hot or cold conditions or
when exposing your scooter to direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time.
