Safety Instructions
Before You Use Your MPV 4
The Hoveround
®
MPV 4 is a battery operated motor vehicle. The operation of the
power chair requires caution and consideration for your personal safety and the
safety of others around you. The list below details some of the important “dos”
and “do nots.” Please read this entire manual thoroughly and call toll free 1-800-
96-HOVER (1-800-964-6837) if you require further assistance.
The “DOs”
1. Always use the seat belt.
2. Always set the joystick/controller speed/response control to be consistent with
the surrounding environment. In confined spaces and while learning to drive
the vehicle, we recommend that the speed/response control be set to minimum.
3. Always climb and/or descend slopes straight up or straight down. Never drive
across the slope.
4. Always use extreme caution when driving over soft and/or uneven surfaces
such as grass or gravel.
5. Always perform the operator performance and maintenance checks that are
detailed in the maintenance section of this guide.
6.
Always ensure that the unit power is off before:
a)
Getting in to or out of the seat.
b)
Making any adjustments to your Hoveround.
c) Bending, leaning, adjusting clothing while seated.
