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 VII. “Batteries and Charging.”

WARNING! If you fail to store the unit properly, the frame can rust and the electronics can be

damaged.

Cleaning Instructions

WARNING! Never hose off your power chair or place it in direct contact with water. Your power

chair has a painted, ABS plastic body shroud that allows it to be easily wiped clean with a damp

cloth.

WARNING! Never use any chemicals to clean a vinyl seat, as they may cause the seat to become

slippery or dry out and crack. Use soapy water and dry the seat thoroughly.

Tire/Wheel Replacement

If you have pneumatic tires and you have a flat tire, you can replace the tube. If your chair is equipped with a solid tire

insert, then you must replace the whole wheel assembly. Replacement tires, tubes, and wheel assemblies are readily

available through your authorized Pride Provider.
