SAFETY SUMMARY
TIRE PRESSURE
DO NOT use your power wheelchair unless it has the proper tire pressure (p.s.i.). DO NOT overinflate the
tires. Failure to follow these suggestions may cause the tire to explode and cause bodily harm.
ELECTRICAL
Grounding Instructions:
DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut or remove the round grounding prong from any plug used with
or for Invacare products. Some devices are equipped with three-prong (grounding) plugs for protec-
tion against possible shock hazards. Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the per-
sonal responsibility and obligation of the customer to contact a qualified electrician and have the
two-prong receptacle replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle in accor-
dance with the National Electrical Code. If you must use an extension cord, use ONLY a three-wire
extension cord having the same or higher electrical rating as the device being connected. In addi-
tion, Invacare has placed RED/ORANGE WARNING TAGS on some equipment. DO NOT remove these
tags. Carefully read battery/battery charger information prior to installing, servicing or operating your
wheelchair.

storm and retain wheelchair operation.
