II. SAFETY
PUBLIC ROADS AND PARKING LOTS
WARNING! Do not operate your Jazzy 1143 on public streets and roadways. Please be
aware it may be difficult for traffic to see you when you are seated in your Jazzy. To
ensure your safety, always assume you cannot be seen. Obey all local pedestrian traffic
rules. Safety accessories like reflectors, fluorescent flags, and various lighting packages
are available to order from your Pride provider.
STEPS AND KERBS
WARNING! Do not attempt to climb or descend a step or kerb higher or lower than 2.5 cm. Never
attempt to proceed backwards down any step, kerb, or other obstacle. Doing so could cause the
Jazzy 1143 to tip.
INCLINES AND UNEVEN TERRAIN
When climbing an incline, try to keep the chair moving. If you must stop, start up again slowly and accelerate
cautiously.
WARNING! When climbing an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle up the face of the incline.
Drive your Jazzy straight up the incline. This greatly reduces the possibility of a tip or fall. Always
exercise extreme caution when navigating an incline. Never travel up or down an incline that can
be potentially hazardous such as areas covered with snow, ice, or cut grass.
When moving down an incline, do so slowly and in the forward direction only. If your Jazzy 1143 starts to move
faster than you anticipated, allow the unit to come to a complete stop by releasing the joystick. Then push the
joystick forward slightly and continue traveling down the incline.
MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED INCLINE
Pride has performed extensive incline testing with your Jazzy 1143. Our results have shown that the maximum
incline you can climb is 8.7% at maximum weight capacity. The angle of most handicap access ramps is 8.7%.
Any attempt to climb a steeper slope may put your Jazzy in an unstable position.
