6Jet 1

Your Jet 1 is a state-of-the-art, life-enhancement de ice designed to increase your mobility. There are certain

situations, including some medical conditions, where you will need to practice operating your Jet 1 in the presence

of an attendant. Below are some safety tips that are designed to help you become accustomed to operating your

new Jet 1 safely.

WARNING! Your Jet 1 is a motorized vehicle. When you are seated in your Jet 1 and you anticipate

that you are going to be in a stationary position for an extended period of time, turn off the power.

his will eliminate the possibility of inadvertent chair movement and conserve battery power.

TRANSFERS

Transferring onto and off of your Jet 1 requires a good sense of balance. Be sure to ha e an attendant or health care

professional present while learning to properly transfer yourself. To eliminate the possibility of injury, we ask that

you erify the following before attempting a transfer:

1. Be sure the power is turned off. See VII. Operation.

2. Be sure your Jet 1 is not in freewheel mode. See III. The Jet 1.

3. Make sure the armrests are flipped up or remo ed from your Jet 1.

4. Flip the footrest up or mo e the leg rests aside; this will help to keep your feet from getting caught on the

footrest or on the leg rests during the transfer.

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the footrest. his may cause the Jet 1 to tip and

cause injury.

MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORT

Though your Jet 1 may be equipped with a positioning belt, this belt was not designed with the intent of pro iding

proper restraint during motor ehicle transport.

nNe er sit on or allow anyone to sit on your Jet 1 when it is in a mo ing ehicle.

nAlways be sure your Jet 1 is properly secured when it is being transported.

WEIGHT LIMITATIONS

Your Jet 1 is rated for a maximum 113-kg weight limit.

WARNING! Exceeding the weight limit will void your 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 to others.

II. SAFETY

Jet 1

II. SAFETY

PUBLIC ROADS AND PARKING LOTS

WARNING! Do not operate your Jet 1 on public streets and roadways. Please be aware it

may be difficult for traffic to see you when you are seated in your Jet 1. o 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! Never attempt to have your Jet 1 climb or descend a step or a kerb that is higher than 5

cm unless you have the assistance of an attendant. Never attempt to have your Jet 1 proceed

backwards down any step, kerb, or other obstacle. Doing so could cause your Jet 1 to tip.

INCLINES AND UNEVEN TERRAIN

When climbing an incline, try to keep your Jet 1 mo ing. If you must stop, start up again slowly, and then

accelerate cautiously.

WARNING! When climbing an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle up the face of the incline.

Drive your Jet 1 straight up the incline. his will greatly reduce the possibility of a tip or a fall.

Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating an incline. Never travel up or down an incline

that can be potentially hazardous (for example, areas covered with snow, ice, or cut grass).

When dri ing down an incline, do so slowly and in the forward direction only. If your Jet 1 starts to mo e faster

than you anticipated or desired it would, allow the chair to come to a complete stop by releasing the joystick. Push

the joystick slightly forward and continue tra eling slowly down the incline.

MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED INCLINE

Pride has performed extensi e incline testing with the Jet 1. Our results show that the maximum incline your Jet 1

can safely climb is 8,7% at maximum weight capacity. The angle of most handicap access ramps is 8,7%. Any

attempt to climb a steeper slope may put your Jet 1 in an unstable position.
