!Checkforpropertire inflation. Maintain but do not exceed the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on

eachtire ifequippedwith pneumatictyres.

!Checkallelectricalconnections. Make sure they aretightandnotcorroded.

IfyourTravelScooterisequippedwithpneumatictires,youshouldcheckorhavetheairpressurecheckedatleastonce

aweek.ProperinflationpressureswillprolongthelifeofyourtiresandhelpensurethesmoothoperationofyourTravel

Scooter.

WARNING! It is critically important that the psi/bar/kPa air pressure indicated on each tire

be maintained in pneumatic tires at all times. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires.

Low pressure may result in loss of control, and overinflated tires may burst. Failure to

maintain the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on pneumatic tires at all times may

result in tire and/or wheel failure.

WARNING! Inflate your Travel Scooter tires from a regulated air source with an available

pressure gauge. Inflating your tires from an unregulated air source could overinflate them,

resulting in a burst tire.

NOTE: If the tires on your Travel Scooter list the psi rating only, use the following conversion formu-

las to find the bar or kPa rating: bar=psi x 0.06895, kPa= psi x 6.89476.

WEIGHT LIMITATIONS

YourTravelScooterisratedfora maximumweightcapacity. Refertothespecificationstableforinformation.

MANDATORY! Stay within the specified weight capacity of your Travel Scooter. Exceeding

the weight capacity voids your warranty. Pride will not be held responsible for injuries and/

or property damage resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.

WARNING! Do not carry passengers on your Travel Scooter. Carrying passengers on your

Travel Scooter may affect the center of gravity, resulting in a tip or a fall.

WARNING! When on any sort of an incline or decline, never place the Travel Scooter

in freewheel mode, especially while seated on it or standing next to it.

WARNING! When climbing an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle up the face

of the incline. Drive your Travel Scooter straight up the incline. This greatly reduces

the possibility of a tip or a fall. Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating

an incline.

WARNING! Do not driveyour Travel Scooter across the side of an incline or diagonally

up or down an incline; do not stop, if possible, while driving up or down an incline.

WARNING! You should not travel up or down a potentially hazardous incline (i.e.,

areas covered with snow, ice, cut grass, or wet leaves).

WARNING! Even though your Travel Scooter is capable of climbing slopes greater

than those illustrated in figure 1, do not, under any circumstances, exceed the

incline guidelines or any other specifications presented in this manual. Doing so

could cause instability in your Travel Scooter.
