n Ensure that all parts of the controller system are securely fastened to your power chair. Do not overtighten any
screws.
n Check for proper tire inflation. There should be 30 35 psi in each drive tire. If a tire does not hold air, see an
authorized Pride provider for replacement.
n Calibrate the joystick if you detect a noticeable difference in performance or if the joystick does not operate
properly. To calibrate the joystick, power off the unit, place the joystick in the neutral position, and power the
unit back on. If a problem still exists with your joysticks performance, contact your authorized Pride
provider.

your power chair.
To check the brakes:
1. Turn on the controller and turn down the speed of your power chair to the lowest setting.
2. After one second, check the battery condition meter. Make sure that it remains lit.
3. Slowly push the joystick forward until you hear the electric brakes click. Immediately release the joystick. You
must be able to hear each electrical brake operating within a few seconds of joystick movement. Repeat this test
three times, pushing the joystick backwards, then left, and then right.
