Positioning Belts
Your authorized Pride provider, therapist(s), and other healthcare professionals are responsible for
determining your requirement for a positioning belt in order to operate your power chair safely.
WARNING! If you require a positioning belt to safely operate your power chair, make sure
it is fastened securely. Serious personal injury may result if you fall from the power chair.
WARNING! The positioning belt is not designed for use as a seat belt in a motor vehicle.
Nor is your Jazzy suitable for use as a seat in any vehicle. Anyone traveling in a vehicle
should be properly belted into seats approved by the vehicle manufacturer.
WARNING! Do not sit on your power chair while it is in a moving vehicle. Personal injury
and/or property damage may result.
WARNING! Always be sure your power chair and its batteries are properly secured when
it is being transported. Failure to do so may result in personal injury and/or damage to
your power chair.
II. SAFETY
Inclement Weather Precautions
WARNING! Pride recommends that you do not operate your power chair in icy or slippery
conditions or on salted surfaces (i.e., walks or roads). Such use may adversely affect the
performance and safety of your power chair, resulting in an accident and personal injury.
WARNING! Do not expose your power chair to any type of moisture at any time (rain,
snow, mist, or wash). Such exposure can damage your power chair. Never operate your
power chair if it has been exposed to moisture until it has dried thoroughly.
Reaching and Bending
Never reach, lean, or bend while driving your power chair. If it is absolutely necessary to reach, lean, or
bend while seated on your power chair, it is important to maintain a stable center of gravity and keep the
power chair from tipping. Pride recommends that the power chair 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 power chair. This may cause your power chair to tip, possibly
resulting in personal injury. Keep your hands away from the tires when driving.
Batteries
In addition to following the warnings below, be sure to comply with all other battery handling information.
For more information about your power chairs batteries, see IX. Batteries and Charging.
