II. SAFETY
PUBLIC STREETS AND ROADWAYS
WARNING! You should not operate your scooter on public streets and roadways. Be
aware that it may be difficult for traffic to see you when you are seated on your scooter.
Obey all local pedestrian traffic rules. Wait until your path is clear of traffic, and then
proceed with extreme caution.
STATIONARY OBSTACLES (STEPS, CURBS, ETC.)
WARNING! Do not drive near raised surfaces, unprotected ledges, and/or drop-offs (curbs,
porches, stairs, etc.).
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your scooter climb or descend an obstacle that is
inordinately high.
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your scooter proceed backward down any step, curb,
or other obstacle. This may cause the scooter to tip.
WARNING! Be sure your scooter is traveling perpendicular to any curb you may be
required to ascend or descend. See figures 3 and 3A.
WARNING! Even though your scooter may be capable of handling greater obstacles,
Pride recommends that you do not attempt to negotiate a curb that has a height greater
than 2 in. (5 cm). Doing so could cause instability in your scooter.

INCLEMENT WEATHER PRECAUTIONS
Exposure of your scooter to inclement weather conditions should be avoided whenever possible. If sud-
denly caught up in rain, snow, severe cold or heat while operating your scooter, proceed to shelter at the
earliest opportunity. Thoroughly dry your scooter before storing, charging, or operating your scooter.
PROHIBITED! Operating in rain, snow, salt, mist/spray conditions, and on icy/slippery
surfaces can cause damage to the scooter and electrical system. Maintain and store
your scooter in a dry and clean condition.
WARNING! Prolonged exposure to hot or cold conditions may affect the temperature of
upholstered and non-upholstered items on the scooter, possibly resulting in skin
irritation. Exercise caution when using your scooter in extremely hot or cold conditions
or when exposing your scooter to direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time.
