Follow the directions of your doctor and/or pharmacist at all times. Do not drive the
power wheelchair while taking medications that affect your refl exes or judgment,
as your driving will be impaired and accidents may result. Do not drink alcohol
or use any other stimulants while operating this or any other vehicle.
The following are important things to help you drive the power wheelchair in the
safest possible manner. Please take note of each and every one.
WARNING DO NOT engage in the following activities with your power wheelchair or
serious personal injury may result.
DO NOT ride the power wheelchair with the brake disengaged at anytime.
DO NOT drive the power wheelchair diagonally across inclines, turn sharp on an incline or
make turns at or near full throttle at any time. Doing this will result in the power wheelchair
losing traction and control which can result in tipping and possibly serious injuries.
DO NOT drive the power wheelchair with the seat assembly higher than necessary as tip-
ping and serious injury may result. The lower the seat, the better your stability.
DO NOT drive the power wheelchair with under-infl ated tires as this increases the possibil-
ity of tipping and injury. Your stability and effi ciency (power and range) are also greatly
affected.
DO NOT remain seated on your power wheelchair while it is being loaded into a vehicle
using anything other than a special wheelchair lift, or personal injury may result.
DO NOT
ride on soft, uneven surfaces as this can cause lose of traction and control causing
tipping and that may result in serious injury.
DO NOT
stop on any incline to rest or dismount. Although the electric brake will stop and
hold you, it is best to stop in level, fl at areas where there is no possibility of rolling, or tipping
the unit or having the occupant fall out.
DO NOT ride your power wheelchair without wearing your lap belt at all times or
serious injury may result. This is especially important on ramps or inclines.
