GF0700137RevA07, September 2007 • Paramount XD Owner’s Manual 3
1 INTRODUCTION
Important safety, operating, and maintenance instructions that
warrant your attention are included in this user manual. Read this
entire manual carefully before operating your new wheelchair, keep
it handy for future reference, and refer to it as often as necessary to
help maintain good performance standards.
Consult your healthcare professional and Graham-Field Health
Products dealer for assistance in developing and learning safe and
effective techniques for performing your daily activities according to
your individual physical abilities and needs, and to make certain that
your wheelchair is properly prescribed and adjusted for your use.
The safety precautions in this manual are general warnings intended
to be used only as basic guidelines. You may find it necessary to
develop your own methods for safely solving frequently encountered
challenges. Again, consult your professional medical advisors for
their recommendations about safety methods, and never hesitate to
ask for their assistance.
Your wheelchair should receive frequent, regularly scheduled main-
tenance, including an inspection of the mechanical parts, to ensure
proper operation. Some suggested inspection procedures, trouble-
shooting procedures, and adjustment procedures are included in this
manual. When it comes to service and repair, remember that your
Graham-Field Health Products dealer knows your wheelchair best.
The person performing adjustments on the Paramount XD has the
responsibility of making certain that the user can safely operate the
wheelchair with the adjustments selected. This person must evalu-
ate the user's ability, weight, physical condition, the environment in
which the Paramount XD will be used, and the terrain over which the
wheelchair will travel.
