Check the entire power chair for loose hardware and changes in the function or performance of the power
chair. See your authorized Pride Provider for service or repair.
Keep your power chair clean and free of foreign material, such as mud, dirt, hair, food, drink, etc.
Spring shocks and gas dampers should be visually checked for any abnormality, structure damage, or bent
rods. See your authorized Pride Provider for repair.
Yearly Checks
Take your power chair to your authorized Pride Provider for yearly maintenance, especially if you use your power chair
on a daily basis. This helps ensure that your power chair is functioning properly and helps prevent future complications.
Storage
Your power chair should be stored in a dry place, free from temperature extremes. When storing, disconnect the
batteries from the power chair. See VI. “Batteries and Charging.”
WARNING! If you fail to store the unit properly, the frame can rust and the electronics can be damaged.
Batteries that are regularly and deeply discharged, infrequently charged, stored in extreme temperatures, or stored without
a full charge may be permanently damaged, causing unreliable performance and limited service life. It is recommended
that you charge the batteries periodically throughout periods of prolonged storage to ensure proper performance.
You may wish to place several boards under the frame of your power chair to raise it off of the ground during
periods of prolonged storage. This takes the weight off the tires and reduces the possibility of flat spots developing
on the areas of the tires contacting the ground.
Disposal of Your Power Chair
Your power chair must be disposed of according to applicable local and national statutory regulations. Contact your
local waste disposal agency or authorized Pride Provider for information on proper disposal of power chair packaging,
metal frame components, plastic components, electronics, batteries, neoprene, silicone, and polyurethane materials.
WARNING! Plastic bags are a suffocation hazard. Dispose of plastic bags properly and do not
allow children to play with them.
Cleaning and Disinfection
Precautions must be taken when cleaning medical equipment/devices to lower the risk of spreading infection.
This is to limit the spread of illness and other potentially infectious material (OPIM) (blood components).
Use a damp cloth and mild, non abrasive cleanser to clean the plastic and metal parts of your power chair.
Avoid using products that may scratch the surface of your power chair.
If necessary, clean your product with an approved disinfectant. Make sure the disinfectant is safe for use on
your product before application.
