II. SAFETY

TheJazzy1143isastate-of-the-artlife-enhancementdevicedesignedtoenhanceyourmobility.There are, how-

ever,certainsituations—includingsomemedicalconditions—whereyouwillneedtopracticeoperatingyourJazzy

1143 in the presence of an attendant. Below are some safety tips that are designed to help you become accus-

tomedtoyournew Jazzy.

WARNING! The Jazzy 1143 is a motorised vehicle. When you are seated in your Jazzy

1143 and you anticipate that you are going to be in a stationary position for an extended

period of time, turn off the power. This eliminates the possibility of unexpected move-

ment and conserves battery power.

TRANSFERS

Transferring onto and offofyour Jazzy1143 requiresa good sense of balance. Be sure to havean attendant or

healthcareprofessional present whilelearningtoproperlytransferyourself.Toeliminatethepossibilityof injury,

weask thatyouverifythefollowingbeforeattemptinga transfer:

1. Be sure thepower is turnedoff.

2. Be sure theJazzy 1143 isnotin the freewheelmode.

3. Make sure thearmrests areflipped up orremoved from thepower chair.

4. Tipthefootrestup; this helps tokeepyourfeetfromhanging up on the footrestduringthetransfer.

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the footrest. This may cause the Jazzy 1143

to tip and cause injury!

MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORT

ThoughyourJazzymaybeequippedwithapositioningbelt,thisbeltwasnotdesignedwiththeintentofproviding

properrestraintduringmotorvehicle transport.

nInanefforttoimprovethe safety of its unitsduringmotorvehicletransport, Pride has crash testednumerous

Jazzymodels. However, since there are unlimited variations of the Jazzy product, all variations could not

possiblybe tested. Therefore, Pride recommendsthat Jazzypower chair users should notbe transportedin

vehicles of any kind while in power chairs. As of this date, there are no standards approved for tie-down

systemsinamovingvehicleof any type to transportauserwhileina power chair.

nAlwaysbesure your Jazzy1143 is properly securedwhen being transported.

WEIGHT LIMITATIONS

YourJazzy1143 is ratedfora136-kg(21.6stone)maximum weight limit.

WARNING! Exceeding the weight limit voids your Jazzy warranty and may result in

personal injury!

STAIRS AND ESCALATORS

WARNING! Power chairs are not designed to travel up or down stairs or escalators. Always

use an elevator. If you try to navigate steps or escalators, you can cause injury to yourself

and others!

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 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

Whenclimbing an incline, try tokeep thechair moving. If you must stop, start up againslowly andaccelerate

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.

Whenmovingdownanincline, do so slowlyandinthe forward direction only. If your Jazzy1143starts to move

faster than you anticipated, allow the unit to come to a complete stop by releasing the joystick. Then push the

joystickforwardslightlyandcontinuetravelingdowntheincline.

MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED INCLINE

inclineyou can climbis 8.7% atmaximum weight capacity. The angle ofmost handicap accessramps is 8.7%.

Anyattempttoclimbasteeper slope may put yourJazzyinanunstableposition.
