The positioning belt is not designed for use as a seat belt in a motor vehicle. Nor isyour power chair suitable for use as a seat in any vehicle. Anyone traveling in a vehicle shouldbe properly belted into seats approved by the vehicle manufacturer. If your power chair isequipped with a manufacturer-installed transit securement system, please refer to the supplemental safety information provided with your power chair. Batteries In addition to following the warnings below, be sure to comply with all other battery handling information. For more information about your power chair’s batteries, see VI. “Batteries and Charging.” MANDATORY! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and leadcompounds. Wear goggles and gloves when handling batteries and wash hands after handling. WARNING! Power chair batteries are heavy. See specifications table. If you are unableto lift that much weight, be sure to get help. Use proper lifting techniques and avoidlifting beyond your capacity. WARNING! Always protect the batteries from freezing and never charge a frozenbattery. Charging a frozen battery may result in damage to the battery. WARNING! Connect your battery harnesses in the proper manner. RED (+) cables mustbe connected to positive (+) battery terminals/posts. BLACK (-) cables must beconnected to negative (-) battery terminals/posts. Protective caps should be installedover all battery terminals. REPLACE cables immediately if damaged. Removable Parts WARNING! Do not attempt to lift or move a power chair by any of its removable parts, includingthe armrests, seat, front riggings, controller, and shrouds. Pride recommends use of only sold, non-removable frame components to lift or move your power chair. Quantum 6000Z Series II. SAFETY II. SAFETY Preventing Unintended Movement WARNING! If you anticipate being seated in a stationary position for an extended period of time, turn off the power. This will prevent unexpected motion from inadvertent joystick contact. This willalso eliminate the possibility of unintended chair movement from electromagnetic (EM) sources. Reaching and Bending Never reach, lean, or bend while driving your power chair. If it is absolutely necessary to reach, lean, or bend while seated on your power chair, it is important to maintain a stable center of gravity and keep the power chair from tipping. Pride recommends that the power chair user determine his/her personal limitations and practice bending and reaching in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional. WARNING! Do not bend, lean, or reach for objects if you have to pick them up from thefloor by reaching down between your knees or if you have to reach over the back of theseat. Movements such as these may change your center of gravity and the weightdistribution of the power chair. This may cause your power chair to tip. WARNING! Keep your hands away from the tires when driving. Be aware that loosefitting clothing can become caught in drive tires. Transfers Transferring onto and off of your power chair requires a good sense of balance. Always have an attendant or healthcare professional present while learning to properly transfer yourself. To eliminate the possibility of injury, Pride recommends that you or a trained attendant perform the following tasks before attempting a transfer: • Ensure your power chair is not in freewheel mode. See III. “Your Power Chair.” • Turn the caster wheels toward the transfer destination to improve power chair stability during transfer. • Make sure both armrests are flipped up or removed from your power chair. • Flip up the foot platform or move the leg rests aside; this will help to keep your feet from getting caught on the front rigging during the transfer. • Reduce the distance between your power chair and the object you are transferring onto. WARNING! Before transferring, turn off the power to the controller to prevent unintended movement. WARNING! Before transferring, position yourself as far back as possible in the power chair seatto prevent the power chair from tipping forward during transfer. WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the power chair armrests and do not use thearmrests for weight bearing purposes, such as transfers. Such use may cause the power chair totip, resulting in a fall from the power chair and personal injury. WARNING! The controller and controller bracket are non-load bearing items on your power chair. Do not use the controller or controller bracket for weight bearing puposes, such as transfers. Such use may cause damage to these components, resulting in a fall from the power chair andpersonal injury. WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the front riggings. Such use may cause the powerchair to tip. Figure 4. Ideal Transfer Position Quantum 6...
