POSITIONING BELTS
Your authorized Zipr provider and other healthcare professionals are responsible
for determining your requirement for a position belt in order to operate yoru
scooter safely.
WARNING! If you require a positioning belt to safely operate your Zipr
Breeze, make sure it is fastened securely. Serious personal injury may
result if you fall from the Zipr Breeze.
REACHING AND BENDING
Avoid reaching or bending while driving your Zipr Breeze. When reaching,
bending, or leaning while seated on your Zipr Breeze, it is important to maintain a
stable center of gravity and keep the scooter from tipping. Zipr recommends that
the scooter user determine his/her personal limitations and practice bending and
reaching in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional.
WARNING! Do not bend, lean, or reach for objects if you have to pick them
up from the floor by reaching down between your knees. Movements such
as these may change your center of gravity and the weight distribution of
the scooter and cause your scooter to tip, possibly resulting in personal
injury. Keep your hands away from the tires when driving.
PRESCRIPTION DRUGS/PHYSICAL LIMITATIONS
The scooter user must exercise care and common sense when operating his/her
Zipr Breeze. This includes awareness of safety issues when taking prescribed or
over-the-counter drugs or when the user has specific physical limitations.
WARNING! Consult your physician if you are taking prescribed or over-
the-counter medication or if you have certain physical limitations. Some
medications and limitations may impair your ability to operate your scooter
in a safe manner.
ALCOHOL
WARNING! Do not operate your scooter while you are under the influence
of alcohol, as this may impair your ability to drive safely.
REMOVABLE PARTS
WARNING! Do not attempt to lift or move your scooter by any of its
