Freewheel Mode
Your power chair is equipped with two manual freewheel levers to allow for manual manoeuvrability by a trained attendant.
For more information about how to place your power chair into and out of freewheel mode, see III. “Your Power Chair.”
WARNING! Do not use your power chair in freewheel mode without an attendant present. Personal
injury may result.
WARNING! Do not attempt to personally place your power chair in freewheel mode while seated
on it. Personal injury may result. Ask an attendant for assistance if necessary.
WARNING! Do not place your power chair in freewheel mode while on an incline. The chair could
roll uncontrollably on its own, causing personal injury.
Outdoor Driving Surfaces
Your power chair is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry, level surfaces composed
of concrete, blacktop, or tarmac. However, Pride recognises that there will be times when you will encounter other surface
types. For this reason, your power chair is designed to perform admirably on packed soil, grass, and gravel. Feel free to
use your power chair safely on lawns and in park areas.
!
Reduce your power chair’s speed when driving on uneven terrain and/or soft surfaces.
!
Avoid tall grass that can entangle the running gear.
!
Avoid loosely packed gravel and sand.
!
If you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid that surface.
Stationary Obstacles (Steps, Kerbs, etc.)
Proceed with extreme caution when driving near raised surfaces, unprotected ledges and/or drop-offs (kerbs, porches,
stairs, etc.). The correct method for approaching a kerb is illustrated in figure 2.
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your power chair climb or descend an obstacle that is higher
than 5 cm unless you have the assistance of an attendant.
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your power chair proceed rearwards down any step, kerb, or
other obstacle. This may cause the power chair to tip and cause personal injury.
