indoor use only. If you plan on using your Jazzy on rough surfaces, it may be necessary to adjust the anti-
tip wheels to better suit your needs. The anti-tip wheels may need adjustment if either of the following
occur:
n When coming to a stop, your Jazzy tips forward excessively.
n The anti-tip wheels constantly rub the ground.
