Cleaning and Disinfection
!
Use a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleanser to clean the plastic and metal parts of your travel chair. Avoid using
products that may scratch the surface of your travel chair.
!
If necessary, clean your product with an approved disinfectant. Make sure the disinfectant is safe for use on your
product before application.
WARNING! Prevent personal injury and product damage! Follow all safety instructions for the
proper use of the disinfectant before applying it to your product.
WARNING! Never hose off your Z-Chair or place it in direct contact with water. Your Z-Chair has a
painted, ABS plastic body shroud that allows it to be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth.
WARNING! Never use any chemicals to clean a vinyl seat, as they may cause the seat to become
slippery or dry out and crack. Use soapy water and dry the seat thoroughly.
Disposal of Your Travel Chair
Your travel chair must be disposed of according to applicable local and national statutory regulations. Contact your local
waste disposal agency or authorized Pride Provider for information on proper disposal of travel chair packaging, metal
frame components, plastic components, electronics, and batteries.
Wheel Replacement
If your chair is equipped with a solid tire insert, then you must replace the whole wheel assembly. Replacement wheel
assemblies are readily available through an authorized Pride Provider.
WARNING! To avoid possible injury, be sure that the controller’s power is turned off and the Z-
Chair is not in freewheel mode before performing this procedure.
