GENERAL
MANDATORY! Do not operate your new Travel Scooter for the first time without completely
reading and understanding this owner’s manual.
Your Travel Scooter is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement device designed to increase mobility. Pride provides
an extensive variety of products to best fit the individual needs of the Travel Scooter user. Please be aware that
the final selection and purchasing decision regarding the type of Travel Scooter to be used is the responsibility of
the Travel Scooter user who is capable of making such a decision and his/her healthcare professional (i.e.,
medical doctor, physical therapist, etc.).
The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility device expert has properly fitted the Travel
Scooter to the user and has assisted the prescribing healthcare professional and/or the authorised Pride Provider in
the instruction process for the use of the product.
There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the Travel Scooter user will need to practice
operating the Travel Scooter in the presence of a trained attendant. A trained attendant can be defined as a family
member or care professional specially trained in assisting a Travel Scooter user in various daily living activities.
As you begin using your Travel Scooter during daily activities, you will probably encounter situations in which you
will need some practice. Simply take your time and you will soon be in full and confident control as you maneouver
through doorways, on and off lifts, up and down ramps and over moderate terrain.
Below are some precautions, tips and other safety considerations that will help you become accustomed to oper-
ating the Travel Scooter safely.
