COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS
After becoming familiar with your power chair’s operation, you may find the need to make some adjustments to increase your
comfort. These adjustments include seat height and angle, armrest angle, foot platform height and angle and controller position.
NOTE: If your power chair is equipped with a Specialty Seat or a Synergy Seat, refer to the information provided
in separate manuals. If your power chair is equipped with a contoured seat, refer to the following information.
WARNING! If your power chair was configured by your authorised Pride Dealer, please consult your
healthcare professional before changing the seat position or making any other adjustment. Some
adjustments may degrade your power chair’s performance and safety by changing its centre of gravity.
WARNING! Some power chair components are heavy. You may need assistance to lift or carry
them. Please refer to the specifications table for specific component weights before you
disassemble the power chair.
WARNING! Remove the occupant from the
power chair before making any adjustments.
