Stairs and Escalators
Power chairs are not designed to travel up or down stairs or escalators. Always use a lift.
WARNING! Never use your power chair to negotiate steps or escalators.
Doors
„ Determine if the door opens toward or away from you.
„ Drive your power chair gently and slowly forward to push the door open. Or drive your power chair gently
and slowly rearward to pull the door open.
Lifts
Modern lifts have a door edge safety mechanism that, when pushed, reopens the lift door(s).
„ If you are in the doorway of a lift when the door(s) begin to close, push on the rubber door edge or allow the
rubber door edge to contact the power chair and the door will reopen.
„ Use care that handbags, packages or power chair accessories do not become caught in lift doors.
Lift Systems/Elevation Products
If you will be transporting your power chair during travel, you may find it necessary to use a vehicle-mounted lift
system or elevation product to aid in transportation. Pride recommends that you closely review the warnings,
instructions, specifications and safety information set forth by the manufacturer of the lift/elevation product before
using that product.
WARNING! Not all lift systems/elevation products are rated for use with an occupied mobility
device. Pride recommends that you do not remain seated in your power chair when it is being
used in connection with any type of lift system/elevation product unless:
„
That product is rated for occupied use by the manufacturer.
„
You are able to occupy your mobility device in strict conformity with the warnings,
instructions, specifications and safety guidelines set forth by the manufacturer.
WARNING! Always turn off the power to the controller when you are being transferred via an
elevation product. Failure to do so may result in accidental joystick contact, resulting in
unintended movement and personal injury or product damage.
Motor Vehicle Transport
Pride recommends that you do not remain seated in your power chair while traveling in a motor vehicle. The
power chair should be stowed in the boot of a car or in the back of a truck or van with the batteries removed and/
or properly secured. In addition, all removable power chair parts, including the armrests, seat, front riggings,
controller and shrouds should be removed and/or properly secured during motor vehicle transport. If your power
chair is equipped with a transit securement system, refer to IV. “Assembly” and the supplement provided with
your power chair for additional information regarding power chair transport in a motor vehicle.
