II. SAFETY

GENERAL

WARNING! Do not operate your new scooter for the first time without completely reading and understanding this owner's manual.

Your scooter is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement device designed to increase mobility. Pride provides an extensive variety of products to best fit the individual needs of the scooter user. Please be aware that the final selection and purchasing decision regarding the type of scooter to be used is the responsibility of the scooter user who is capable of making such a decision and his/her healthcare professional (i.e., medical doctor, physical therapist, etc.).

The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility device expert has properly fitted the scooter to the user and has assisted the prescribing healthcare professional and/or the authorized Pride provider in the instruction process for the use of the product.

There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the scooter user will need to practice operating the scooter in the presence of a trained attendant. A trained attendant can be defined as a family member or care professional specially trained in assisting a scooter user in various daily living activities.

As you begin using your scooter during daily activities, you will probably encounter situations in which you will need some practice. Simply take your time and you will soon be in full and confident control as you maneuver through doorways, on and off elevators, up and down ramps, and over moderate terrain.

Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will help the user become accustomed to operating the scooter safely.

MODIFICATIONS

Pride has designed and engineered your scooter to provide maximum mobility and utility. A wide range of accessories is available from your Pride provider to further customize your scooter to better suit your needs and/or preferences. However, under no circumstances should you modify, add, remove, or disable any feature, part, or function of your scooter.

WARNING! Do not modify your scooter in any way not authorized by Pride. Unauthorized modifications may result in personal injury and/or damage to your scooter.

II. SAFETY

PRE-RIDE SAFETY CHECK

Get to know the feel of your scooter and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety check before each use to make sure your scooter operates smoothly and safely. For details on how to perform these necessary inspections, see XII. “Care and Maintenance.”

Perform the following inspections prior to using your scooter:

■ Check for proper tire inflation. Maintain 30-35 psi in each tire (if equipped with pneumatic tires).
■Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not corroded.
- Check all controller connections to the utility tray. Make sure they are secured properly.
■Check the brakes.
■Check battery charge.

WARNING! It is critically important that 30-35 psi tire pressure be maintained in pneumatic tires at all times. Failure to maintain 30-35 psi tire pressure in pneumatic tires at all times may result in catastrophic tire and/or wheel failure, causing serious personal injury and/or damage to your scooter.

WARNING! Do not carry passengers on your scooter. Carrying passengers on your scooter may result in personal injury and/or property damage.

If you discover a problem, contact your authorized Pride provider for assistance.

WEIGHT LIMITATIONS

Your scooter is rated for a 300-lb. maximum weight limit.

WARNING! Exceeding the weight limit voids your warranty and may result in personal injury and damage to your scooter. Pride will not be held responsible for injuries and/or property damage resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.

INCLINE INFORMATION

More and more buildings have ramps with specified degrees of inclination, designed for easy and safe access. Some ramps may have turning switchbacks (180-degree turns) that require you to have good cornering skills on your scooter.

■Proceed with extreme caution as you approach the downgrade of a ramp or other incline.
Take wide swings with your scooter's front wheels around any tight corners. If you do that, the scooter's rear wheels will follow a wide arc, not cut the corner short, and not bump into or get hung up on any railing corners.
- When driving down a ramp, keep the scooter's speed adjustment set to the slowest speed setting to ensure a safely controlled descent. See V. "Your Legend."
■Avoid sudden stops and starts.

II. SAFETY

When climbing an incline, try to keep your scooter moving. If you must stop, start up again slowly, and then accelerate cautiously. When driving down an incline, do so by setting the speed adjustment button to the slowest setting and driving in the forward direction only. If your scooter starts to move down the incline faster than you anticipated or desired, allow it to come to a complete stop by releasing the throttle control lever. Then push the throttle control lever forward slightly to ensure a safely controlled descent.

WARNING! When climbing an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle up the face of the incline. Drive your scooter straight up the incline. This greatly reduces the possibility of a tip or a fall. Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating an incline.

WARNING! You should not travel up or down a potentially hazardous incline (i.e., areas covered with snow, ice, cut grass, or wet leaves).

WARNING! When on any sort of an incline or decline, never place the scooter in freewheel mode while seated on it or standing next to it.

Other inclines may be natural or, if man-made, not designed specifically for scooters. Figures 1 and 2 illustrate your scooter's stability and its ability to climb grades under various weight loads and under controlled testing conditions.

These tests were conducted with the scooter's seat in the highest position and adjusted backward on the seat base to its farthest rearward position. Use this information as a guideline. Your scooter's ability to travel up inclines is affected by your weight, your scooter's speed, your angle of approach to the incline, and your scooter setup.

FIGURE 1. MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED INCLINE ANGLES 3 WHEEL

FIGURE 2. MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED INCLINE ANGLES 4 WHEEL

WARNING! Any attempt to climb or descend a slope steeper than shown in figures 1 and 2 may put your scooter in an unstable position and cause it to tip, resulting in personal injury.

II. SAFETY

When you approach an incline, it is best to lean forward. See figures 3 and 4. This shifts the center of gravity of you and your scooter toward the front of the scooter for improved stability.

WARNING! Do not exceed the incline guidelines or any other specifications presented in this manual.

FIGURE 3. INCREASED STABILITY DRIVING POSITION

CORNERING INFORMATION

Excessively high cornering speeds can create the possibility of tipping. Factors which affect the possibility of tipping include, but are not limited to, cornering speed, steering angle (how sharply you are turning), uneven road surfaces, inclined road surfaces, riding from an area of low traction to an area of high traction (such as passing from a grassy area to a paved area – especially at high speed while turning), and abrupt directional changes. High cornering speeds are not recommended. If you feel that you may tip over in a corner, reduce your speed and steering angle (i.e., lessen the sharpness of the turn) to prevent your scooter from tipping.

WARNING! When cornering sharply, reduce your speed. When using your scooter at higher speeds, do not corner sharply. This greatly reduces the possibility of a tip or fall. To avoid personal injury or property damage, always exercise common sense when cornering.

II. SAFETY

BRAKING INFORMATION

Your scooter is equipped with two powerful brake systems:

1. Regenerative: Uses electricity to rapidly slow the vehicle when the throttle control lever returns to the center/stop position; and
2. Disc Park Brake: Activates mechanically after regenerative braking slows the vehicle to near stop, or when power is removed from the system for any reason.

OUTDOOR DRIVING SURFACES

Your scooter is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry, level surfaces composed of concrete, blacktop, or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes that there will be times when you will encounter other surface types. For this reason, your scooter is designed to perform admirably on packed soil, grass, and gravel. Feel free to use your scooter safely on lawns and in park areas.

• Reduce your scooter's speed when driving on uneven terrain and/or soft surfaces.
  ■Avoid tall grass that can become tangled in the running gear.
  ■Avoid loosely packed gravel and sand.
  ■If you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid that surface.

STATIONARY OBSTACLES (STEPS, CURBS, ETC.)

Proceed with extreme caution when driving near raised surfaces, unprotected ledges and/or drop-offs (curbs, porches, stairs, etc.).

WARNING! Do not attempt to have your scooter climb or descend an obstacle that is inordinately high. Serious personal injury and/or damage may result.

WARNING! Do not attempt to have your scooter proceed backwards down any step, curb, or other obstacle. This may cause the scooter to tip and cause personal injury.

II. SAFETY

PUBLIC ROADS AND PARKING LOTS

WARNING! You should not operate your scooter on public streets and roadways. Be aware that it may be difficult for traffic to see you when you are seated on your scooter. Obey all local pedestrian traffic rules. Wait until your path is clear of traffic, and then proceed with extreme caution.

NOTE: Safety accessories like reflectors, fluorescent flags, and various lighting packages are available to order from your authorized Pride provider.

INCLEMENT WEATHER PRECAUTIONS

WARNING! Pride recommends that you do not operate your scooter in icy or slippery conditions or on salted surfaces (i.e., walks or roads). Such use may result in an accident, personal injury, or adversely affect the performance and safety of your scooter.

WARNING! Pride recommends that you do not expose your scooter to any type of moisture at any time (rain, snow, mist, or wash). Such exposure can damage your scooter. Never operate your scooter if it has been exposed to moisture until it has dried thoroughly.

FREEWHEEL MODE

Your scooter is equipped with a manual freewheel lever that when pulled up allows the scooter to be pushed. For more information about how to place your scooter into and out of freewheel mode, see V. "Your Legend."

WARNING! Do not use your scooter in freewheel mode without an attendant present. Personal injury may result.

WARNING! Do not attempt to personally place your scooter in freewheel mode while seated on it. Personal injury may result. Ask an attendant for assistance if necessary.

WARNING! Do not place your scooter in freewheel mode while on an incline. The scooter could roll uncontrollably on its own, causing personal injury.

TIRE INFLATION

If your scooter is equipped with pneumatic tires, you should check or have the air pressure checked at least once a week. Proper inflation pressures will prolong the life of your tires and help ensure the smooth operation of your scooter.

WARNING! It is critically important that pneumatic tires be inflated to 30-35 psi. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires. Improper tire pressure may result in catastrophic tire and/or wheel failure. Serious personal injury and/or property damage may result.

WARNING! Inflate your scooter drive tires from a regulated air source with an available pressure gauge. Minimum air pressure for scooter drive tires is 30-35 psi. Inflating your tires from an unregulated air source could overinflate them, resulting in a burst tire and/or personal injury.

II. SAFETY

STAIRS AND ESCALATORS

scooters are not designed to travel up or down stairs or escalators. Always use an elevator.

WARNING! Do not use your scooter to negotiate steps or escalators. You may cause injury to yourself and to others and damage your scooter.

DOORS

■Determine if the door opens toward or away from you.

■Use your hand to turn the knob or push the handle or push-bar.

■ Drive your scooter gently and slowly forward to push the door open. Or drive your scooter gently and slowly backwards to pull the door open.

ELEVATORS

Modern elevators have a door edge safety mechanism that, when pushed, reopens the elevator door(s).

If you are in the doorway of an elevator when the door(s) begin to close, push on the rubber door edge or allow the rubber door edge to contact the scooter and the door will reopen.

■ Use care that pocketbooks, packages, or scooter accessories do not become caught in elevator doors.

LIFT/ELEVATION PRODUCTS

If you will be traveling with your scooter, you may find it necessary to use a lift/elevation product to aid in transportation. Pride recommends that you closely review the instructions, specifications, and safety information set forth by the manufacturer of the lift/elevation product before using that product.

BATTERIES

In addition to following the warnings below, be sure to comply with all other battery handling information. For more information about your scooter's batteries, see VI. "Batteries and Charging."

WARNING! 32 AH scooter batteries weigh 25 lbs. each, and 40 AH batteries weight 32.5 lbs. each. If you are unable to lift that much weight, be sure to get help. Lifting beyond your capacity can result in personal injury.

WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.

WARNING! Always protect the batteries from freezing and never charge a frozen battery. Charging a frozen battery may result in personal injury and/or damage to the battery.

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 throttle control lever contact. Failure to do so may result in personal injury.

II. SAFETY

MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORT

Currently, there are no standards approved for tie-down systems in a moving vehicle of any type to transport a person while seated in a scooter.

Although your scooter may be equipped with a positioning belt, this belt is not designed to provide proper restraint during motor vehicle transport. Anyone traveling in a motor vehicle should be properly secured in the motor vehicle seat with safety belts fastened securely.

WARNING! Do not sit on your scooter while it is in a moving vehicle. Personal injury and/or property damage may result.

WARNING! Always be sure your scooter and its batteries are properly secured when it is being transported. Failure to do so may result in personal injury and/or damage to your scooter.

GETTING ONTO AND OFF OF YOUR SCOOTER

Getting onto and off of your scooter requires a good sense of balance. Please observe the following safety tips when getting onto and off of your scooter:

■Power down your scooter. See VII. "Operation."
■Ensure that your scooter is not in freewheel mode. See V. "Your Legend."
■ Make certain that the seat is locked into place and the key is removed from the key switch.
■The seat armrests can be flipped up to make getting on and off the scooter easier.

WARNING! Position yourself as far back as possible in the scooter seat to prevent the scooter from tipping and causing injury.

WARNING! Avoid using your armrests for weight bearing purposes. Such use may cause the scooter to tip and cause personal injury.

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the floorboard. Such use may cause the scooter to tip and cause personal injury.

POSITIONING BELTS

Your authorized Pride provider, therapist(s), and other healthcare professionals are responsible for determining your requirement for a positioning belt in order to operate your scooter safely.

WARNING! If you require a positioning belt to safely operate your scooter, make sure it is fastened securely. Serious personal injury may result if you fall from the scooter.

II. SAFETY

REACHING AND BENDING

Avoid reaching or bending while driving your scooter. When reaching, bending, or leaning while seated on your scooter, it is important to maintain a stable center of gravity and keep the scooter from tipping. Pride recommends that the scooter 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 the floor by reaching down between your knees. Movements such as these may change your center of gravity and the weight distribution of the scooter and cause your scooter to tip, possibly resulting in personal injury. Keep your hands away from the tires when driving.

PRESCRIPTION DRUGS/PHYSICAL LIMITATIONS

The scooter user must exercise care and common sense when operating his/her scooter. This includes awareness of safety issues when taking prescribed or over-the-counter drugs or when the user has specific physical limitations.

WARNING! Consult your physician if you are taking prescribed or over-the-counter medication or if you have certain physical limitations. Some medications and limitations may impair your ability to operate your scooter in a safe manner.

ALCOHOL

The scooter user must exercise care and common sense when operating his/her scooter. This includes awareness of safety issues while under the influence of alcohol.

WARNING! Do not operate your scooter while you are under the influence of alcohol, as this may impair your ability to drive safely.

REMOVABLE PARTS

WARNING! Do not attempt to lift or move a scooter by any of its removable parts. Personal injury and damage to the scooter may result.

III. EMI/RFI

EMI/RFI WARNINGS

Laboratory tests performed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have shown that radio waves can cause unintended motion of electric scooters. Radio waves are a form of electromagnetic energy (EM). When electromagnetic energy adversely affects the operation of an electrical device, that adverse effect is called Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) or Radio Frequency Interference (RFI).

EMI/RFI FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQS)

The following FAQs summarize what you should know about EMI/RFI. Use this information to minimize the risk that EMI/RFI will adversely affect your Legend.

Where do radio waves come from?

Radio waves are emitted from the antennas of cellular phones, mobile two-way radios (such as walkie-talkies and CBs), radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, wireless computer links, microwave sources, and paging transmitters. Radio waves are a form of electromagnetic energy (EM). Because EM is more intense closer to transmitting antennas (sources of emission), the EM fields from two-way radios are of special concern to electric scooter users.

If EMI/RFI affects my Legend, what kind of motion should I expect?

This is difficult to predict. The answer would depend on a number of factors:

■The strength of the radio waves.
■The construction of your particular Legend.
■The location of your Legend (whether it is on the level ground or on an incline).
■Whether or not your Legend is in motion.

The motion of any electric scooter affected by EMI/RFI can be erratic. The scooter may come to a sudden stop or move in an uncontrolled manner. Also, it is possible for EMI/RFI to release the brakes of an electric scooter. Some intense EMI/RFI can even damage the control system components of an electric scooter.

Is there any way to know for certain whether or not radio waves are the cause of any unintended motion of my Legend?

Unfortunately, EMI/RFI may be difficult to recognize, since the signals from radio sources are invisible and may be intermittent. However, the FDA recommends that you report all incidents of unintended motion or unintended brake release of your electric scooter to the scooter's manufacturer and, if possible, determine whether or not there was a radio wave source nearby at the time of the incident.

One precaution you can take against inadvertent motion of your Legend is to make certain that you or someone else is not the cause of the unintended motion.

■ Turn off your Legend by removing the key from the key switch when you are getting on or off of your Legend.
■Never leave the key in the key switch of an unattended Legend.
By following these steps, you greatly reduce the risk of you or anyone else inadvertently bumping the throttle control levers and causing the Legend to move unintentionally.

Has anyone been injured by the erratic, unintended motion of an electric scooter?

The FDA has reports of injuries that resulted from uncontrolled motion of electric scooters, but it is not clear just how many of those injuries were actually caused by EMI/RFI.

III. EMI / RFI

Are all electric scooters susceptible to EMI/RFI?

Each make and model of electric scooter differs in its ability to resist EMI/RFI. That is, each scooter has a particular level of resistance to EMI/RFI. This resistance is measured in volts per meter (V/m). A higher resistance level offers greater protection against EMI/RFI. In other words, an electric scooter with a high resistance level is less likely to be affected by a strong radio source than is an electric scooter with a low resistance level.

What is the FDA doing about the problem?

The FDA has written to the electric scooter manufacturers and requested that those manufacturers test their new scooter models to be certain that they provide a reasonable degree of resistance against EMI/RFI. The FDA has stated that all newly manufactured electric scooter models should have a resistance level of at least 20 V/m. This level of resistance provides a reasonable degree of protection against the common sources of EMI/RFI.

The FDA has also requested or recommended that:

Electric scooter manufacturers clearly label new products with that product's resistance level or state that the resistance level is not known.
The labeling or informational material supplied with new electric scooters must explain what the resistance level means and warn users about the possibility of EMI/RFI and how to avoid it.
Electric scooter manufacturers undertake an educational program to inform the electric scooter users and their caregivers about the problems associated with EMI/RFI and about the actions they can take to minimize the risk of EMI/RFI.
■ While there is no exact way to tell if your scooter is totally safe, an immunity level of 20 V/m (May 1994) is generally achievable and useful. This product has been tested and passed at an immunity level of 20 V/m. Adding accessories and components or modifying the unit may change the susceptibility to EMI/RFI.

What can I do to find out if my Legend is likely to be affected by EMI/RFI?

If you have had your Legend for some time and have not experienced any unintended motion, it is not likely that you will have a problem in the future. However, it is always possible that EMI/RFI problems could arise if you are close to a source of radio waves. Therefore, it is very important for you to be alert to this possibility. The Legend scooter meets or exceeds a resistance level of at least 20 V/m.

What can I do to reduce the risk of my Legend being affected by EMI/RFI?

Here are some precautions you can take:

• Do not turn on or use hand-held personal communications devices, such as citizens band (CB) radios and cellular phones, while your Legend is turned on.
  ■Be aware of nearby radio wave transmitters, such as radio or TV stations and hand-held or mobile two-way radios. Try not to operate your Legend too close to those transmitters. For example, if you are on an electric scooter with a resistance level of at least 20 V/m, you should remain at least three feet from a hand-held two-way radio and at least ten feet from a mobile two-way radio.
  ■ Be aware that adding accessories and/or components, or modifying your Legend in any way, may change its EMI/RFI resistance level and may make it more susceptible to interference from radio wave sources.

What should I do if my Legend moves unexpectedly?

If unintended motion or unintended brake release occurs, turn off your Legend (by removing the key) as soon as it is safe to do so.

If my Legend moves unintentionally, where should I report the incident?

Call our headquarters at 1-800-800-8586 to report the incident.

Batteries

The batteries store the electrical energy that powers your Legend. See VI. "Batteries and Charging."

Main Circuit Breaker

When the voltage in your Legend's batteries becomes low or your Legend is heavily strained because of excessive loads or steep inclines, the main circuit breaker may trip to protect your Legend's motor and electronics from damage. See figure 8.

■The main circuit breaker reset button pops out when the breaker trips.
■When the breaker trips, the entire electrical system of your Legend shuts down.
- Allow a minute or two for your Legend's electronics to "rest."
■Push in the reset button to reset the breaker.

If the breaker trips frequently, you may need to charge your batteries more often. You may also need to have your Pride provider perform a load test on your Legend's batteries.

■ If the main circuit breaker trips repeatedly, see your authorized Pride provider for service.

V. YOUR LEGEND

Manual Freewheel Lever

Whenever you need or want to push your Legend for short distances, you can put it in freewheel mode.

WARNING! Before placing your Legend into or taking it out of freewheel mode, make certain that the key is removed from the key switch. Even though the motor of your Legend is disengaged from the drive system when your scooter is put in freewheel mode, the motor can still run if the throttle lever is pushed. Never sit on a scooter when it is in freewheel mode. Never put a scooter in freewheel mode on any incline.

The manual freewheel lever is located on the end of the motor/transaxle assembly at the right rear of the Legend. See figure 8.

The motor/transaxle assembly is the electromechanical unit that converts the electrical energy of your Legend's batteries into the controlled mechanical energy that drives the Legend's wheels. See figure 8.

Anti-Tip Wheels

The anti-tip wheels are an integral and important safety feature of your Legend. Do not, under any circumstances, remove the anti-tip wheels from your Legend. See figure 8.

Charger Power Cord Receptacle

The charger power cord plugs into your Legend's battery charger by means of the charger power cord receptacle.

Fuses

The fuses help protect your Legend's lighting, control console assembly, and charging systems from receiving an overload of electrical current. The fuses used in the Legend are the same type automobiles use.

■Control console assembly uses a 3-amp fuse.
■Rear lights use a 3-amp fuse.
■Charging system uses a 5-amp fuse.

If a fuse must be replaced (see XII. "Care and Maintenance") use only the specified amp fuse.

FIGURE 9. WORKING FUSE FIGURE 10. BLOWN FUSE (REPLACE)

WARNING! Failure to use properly rated fuses may cause damage to the Legend's electrical system, with the possibility of personal injury.

VI. BATTERIES AND CHARGING

Your Legend uses two long-lasting, 12-volt, deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. They are recharged by an onboard 3-amp charging system designed for ease of use and convenience.

• Charge your Legend's batteries prior to using it for the first time.
  ■Keep your batteries fully charged to keep your Legend running trouble free.

Follow these easy steps to charge your batteries safely:

1. Position your scooter close to a standard wall outlet.
2. Remove the key from the control console assembly.
3. Make certain that the manual freewheel lever is in the down (drive) position. See figure 8.
4. Plug the charger cord into the charger power cord receptacle on the scooter.
5. Extend the charger power cord and plug it into the wall outlet.

WARNING! Never use an extension cord to plug in your battery charger. Plug the charger directly into a properly wired standard wall outlet.

NOTE: There is a charger inhibit on your scooter. The scooter will not run and the battery condition meter will not operate while the batteries are charging.

1. It is recommended that you charge your batteries for 8 to 14 hours. You can check this periodically by the battery condition meter on the control console assembly. However, you must first unplug the battery charger and then insert the key. The battery condition meter on the control console assembly indicates the approximate strength of your batteries. See figure 11. You can also check the charge by the ammeter which is visible on the rear electronics module. The battery charger must be plugged into a wall outlet to obtain a reading. When the amperage reading is at or near zero (0) amps, the battery charging is complete. See figure 12.

2. When the batteries are fully charged, unplug the charger power cord from the wall outlet and then from the charger power cord receptacle.

VI. BATTERIES AND CHARGING

AUTO SHUTOFF FEATURE

The Legend is equipped with an energy saving auto shutoff feature.

If the Legend's key is left in the on position and the scooter remains inactive for approximately 20 minutes, the scooter will shut down. This feature is designed to preserve battery life.

To restore power back to the Legend:

■Turn the key counterclockwise to the off position.

■Turn the key clockwise to the on position.

Your Legend will now resume normal operation.

BATTERIES AND CHARGING-FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQS)

How does the charger work?

When your Legend's battery voltage is low, the charger works harder and sends more electrical current to the batteries to bring up their charge. As the voltage of the batteries approaches a full charge, the charger sends less and less electrical current to the batteries. When the batteries are fully charged, the current sent to them from the charger is at nearly zero amperage. Therefore, when the charger is plugged in, it maintains the charge on your Legend's batteries, but does not overcharge them. We do not recommend that you charge your Legend's batteries for more than 24 consecutive hours.

What if the Legend's batteries won't charge?

■Be sure the battery cables are connected properly.

■Are both ends of the charger cord inserted fully?

■ Examine the 5-amp charger fuse. If the fuse is blown the batteries will not charge. See figures 9 and 10.

Can I use a different charger?

For the safest, most efficient and balanced charging of your Legend's batteries, we prefer and highly recommend the simultaneous charging of both batteries by use of the onboard battery charger.

How often must I charge the batteries?

Two major factors must be considered when deciding how often to charge your Legend's batteries:

■All day scooter use on a daily basis.

■ Infrequent or sporadic scooter use.

With these considerations in mind, you can determine just how often and for how long you should charge your Legend's batteries. We designed the onboard charger so that it will not overcharge your scooter's batteries (do not charge them for more than 24 consecutive hours). However, you may encounter some problems if you do not charge your batteries often enough and if you do not charge them on a regular basis. Following the five guidelines below will provide safe and reliable battery operation and charging.

If you use your Legend daily, charge its batteries as soon as you finish using it for the day. Your Legend will be ready each morning to give you a “full day” of service. We recommend that you charge your Legend’s batteries for 8 to 14 hours after daily use.

■ If you use your Legend once a week or less, charge its batteries at least once a week for 12 to 14 hours at a time.

- Keep your Legend’s batteries fully charged.

- Avoid deeply discharging your Legend's batteries.

- Do not charge your Legend's batteries for more than 24 consecutive hours.

VI. BATTERIES AND CHARGING

How can I get maximum range or distance per charge?

Rarely will you have ideal driving conditions—smooth, flat, hard driving surfaces with no wind or curves. You will often face hills, sidewalk cracks, uneven and loosely packed surfaces, curves, and wind. All of these driving conditions affect the distance or running time per battery charge. Below are a few suggestions for obtaining the maximum range per battery charge.

• Always fully charge your Legend’s batteries prior to your daily use.
• Maintain 30-35 psi (pounds per square inch) in all of your Legend’s tires.
  ■ Plan your route ahead to avoid as many hills, cracked, broken, or soft surfaces as possible.
  ■Limit your baggage weight to essential items.
  ■Try to maintain an even speed while your Legend is in motion.
  ■Avoid stop-and-go driving.

What type and size of battery should I use?

We recommend deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. Both sealed lead-acid and gel cell are deep-cycle batteries that are similar in performance. Do not use wet-cell batteries, which have removable caps.

NOTE: Do not remove the caps from sealed batteries. Water cannot be added to sealed batteries. Cap removal voids the battery warranty and may cause damage to the batteries and to your Legend.

Use these specifications to reorder deep-cycle batteries:

Type: Deep-cycle (sealed lead-acid or gel cell)

Size: U-1 (32 AH only)

Voltage: 12 volts each

Amperage: 32 AH or 40 AH (amp hours)

To change a battery in your Legend:

WARNING! Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.

1. Remove the seat and the rear shroud. See IX. "Disassembly and Assembly."
2. Disconnect the battery tie-down straps.
3. Disconnect the battery cables from the rear electronics module.
4. Disconnect the battery cables from the battery terminals.
5. Remove the old battery.
6. Place a new battery in the battery well.
7. Connect the red battery cable to the positive (+) battery terminal.
8. Connect the black battery cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.
9. Reconnect the battery cables to the rear electronics module.
10. Reconnect the battery tie-down cables.
11. Reinstall the rear shroud and the seat.

Why do my new batteries seem weak?

Deep-cycle batteries employ a different chemical technology than is used in car batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries (nicads), or in other common battery types. Deep-cycle batteries are specifically designed to provide power, drain down their charge, and then accept a relatively quick recharge.

VI. BATTERIES AND CHARGING

We work closely with our battery manufacturer to provide batteries that best suit your Legend's specific electrical demands. Fresh batteries arrive daily at Pride and are shipped fully charged to our customers. During shipping, the batteries may encounter temperature extremes that may influence their initial performance. Heat diminishes the charge on the battery; cold slows the available power and extends the time needed to recharge the battery.

It may take a few days for the temperature of your Legend's batteries to stabilize and adjust to their new room or ambient temperature.

More importantly, it takes a few charging cycles (a partial drain followed by a full recharge) to establish the critical chemical balance that is essential to a deep-cycle battery's peak performance and long life.

Please follow these steps to properly break in your Legend's new batteries for maximum efficiency and service life.

1. Fully recharge any new battery prior to its initial use. This charging cycle brings the battery up to about 88% of its peak performance level.
2. Operate your new Legend in familiar and safe areas. Drive slowly at first, and do not travel too far from your home or familiar surroundings until you have become accustomed to your Legend's controls and have properly broken in your scooter's batteries.
3. Fully recharge the batteries. They should be at over 90% of their peak performance level.
4. Operate your Legend again.
5. Fully recharge the batteries again.
6. After four or five charging cycles, the batteries are able to receive a charge of 100% of their peak performance level and are able to last for an extended period of time.

How can I ensure maximum battery life?

Fully charged deep-cycle batteries provide reliable performance and extended battery life. Keep your Legend's batteries fully charged whenever possible. Batteries that are regularly and deeply discharged, infrequently charged, or stored without a full charge may be permanently damaged, causing unreliable performance and limited service life.

How should I store my Legend and its batteries?

WARNING! If your Legend's batteries do become frozen, do not attempt to charge them. Cold or frozen batteries should be allowed to warm up for several days prior to recharging.

If you plan on not using your Legend for an extended period of time, it is best to:

■Fully charge its batteries prior to storage.
■Disconnect the battery harnesses from the rear electronics module.
■Store your Legend in a warm dry environment.
■Avoid storing your Legend where it will be exposed to temperature extremes.

For prolonged storage, you may wish to place several boards under the frame of your Legend to raise the scooter off of the ground. This takes the weight off of the tires and reduces the possibility of flat spots developing on the areas of the tires contacting the ground.

What about public transportation?

If you intend to use public transportation while using your scooter, you must contact in advance the transportation provider to determine their specific requirements.

XI. BASIC TROUBLESHOOTING

Any electromechanical device occasionally requires some troubleshooting. However, most of the problems that may arise can usually be solved with a bit of thought and common sense. Many of these problems occur because the batteries are not fully charged or because the batteries are worn down and can no longer hold a charge.

DIAGNOSTIC FLASH CODES

The diagnostic flash codes for your Legend are designed to help you perform basic troubleshooting quickly and easily. A diagnostic flash code will flash from the status LED in the event one of the conditions listed below develops.

NOTE: Your scooter will not run unless the flash code condition is resolved and the scooter has been turned off then turned back on.

FLASH CODE CONDITION SOLUTION
■ ■ ■ ■ ■	Batteries are too low to operate the Scooter or the charger is operating.	Charge batteries or unplug the charger power cord from the electrical outlet.
■ ■	Controller is hot; the Scooter seems to be losing power.	Shut down your Scooter for a minimum of several minutes to allow the controller to cool.
■ ■ ■ ■	Wigwag fault; your throttle control levers are not responding.	Call your authorized Pride provider for assistance.
■ ■ ■ ■ ■	The manual freewheel lever is inthe (up) freewheel position.	Turn the Scooter key to the off position, then push the manual freewheel lever to the (down) drive position, restart your Scooter.
■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■	Scooter is operating with the charger attached.	Unplug the charger cord from the charger power cord receptacle.

What if all the systems on my Legend seem to be “dead”?

■Make certain that the key is in the on position.
- Check that the batteries are fully charged. See VI. “Batteries and Charging.”
■ Push in the reset button of the main circuit breaker. See V. "Your Legend."
■ Make certain that both battery harnesses are firmly connected to the rear electronics module and to the battery terminals. See IX. “Disassembly and Assembly.”

  If the problem continues, have both of your Legend's batteries load tested by your authorized Pride provider.

NOTE: You may perform the load test yourself. Battery load testers are available at most automotive parts stores.

■Follow the directions supplied with the load tester.
See VI. “Batteries and Charging” or IV. “Specifications” for information about your Legend’s battery type.

What if the battery condition meter dips way down and the motor surges or hesitates when I press my Legend's throttle control lever? (See V. "Your Legend.")

■ Fully charge your Legend's batteries. See VI. "Batteries and Charging."
■Have your authorized Pride provider load test each battery.
Or, see the previous troubleshooting question for load testing the batteries yourself.

If you experience any problems with your Legend that you are not able to solve, immediately contact your authorized Pride provider for information, maintenance, and service.

XII. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your Legend requires a minimal amount of care and maintenance. If you do not feel confident in your ability to perform the maintenance listed below, you may schedule inspection and maintenance at your authorized Pride provider. The following areas require periodic inspection and/or care and maintenance.

TIRE PRESSURE:

For optimum scooter performance we recommend that the tire pressure be maintained between 30-35 psi.

WARNING! Do not exceed that pressure; overinflating a tire can cause it to explode.

• Regularly inspect your Legend's tires for signs of wear.
  ■Use a rubber conditioner on your Legend's tires to help to preserve them.

WARNING! Do not put rubber conditioner on tire tread; this may cause the tires to become dangerously slippery.

EXTERIOR SURFACES:

■ Bumpers and trim also benefit from an occasional application of rubber or vinyl conditioner.

WARNING! Do not use a rubber or vinyl conditioner on the Legend's vinyl seat; it may become dangerously slippery.

BATTERY TERMINAL CONNECTIONS:

■Make certain that the terminal connections remain tight and uncorroded.
■The batteries must sit flat in the battery wells.
■The battery terminals should face the rear of the Legend.

WIRING HARNESSES:

■Regularly check all wiring connections.
■ Regularly check all wiring insulation, including the charger power cord, for wear or damage.
■ Have your Authorized Pride provider repair or replace any damaged connector, connection, or insulation that you find before using your Legend again.

■ The front console shroud, front shroud, and the rear shroud are formed from durable ABS plastic and coated with an advanced formula urethane paint.
■A light application of car wax will help the shrouds retain their high gloss.

AXLE BEARINGS AND THE MOTOR/TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY:

■These items are all prelubricated, sealed, and require no subsequent lubrication.

MOTOR BRUSHES:

■ The motor brushes are housed inside of the motor transaxle assembly. They should be inspected periodically for wear by your Pride provider.

XII. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CONSOLE, CHARGER, AND ELECTRONIC CONTROLLER ASSEMBLY:

■Keep these areas free of moisture.

If any of these items do become exposed to moisture, let them dry thoroughly before operating your Legend again.

STORAGE

See VI. "Batteries and Charging."

REAR LIGHTS

The light bulbs for rear running lights and turn signals are easily replaceable. Each bulb has its own fuse.

NOTE: Replacement light bulbs can be purchased from your Pride provider.

■Remove the light cover which is held in place with one (1) Phillips head screw.
■Gently remove the bulb from between the clip. See figure 8.
■Insert a new 24V, 5 watt bulb.
■Replace the light cover.

FUSES

In the event a fuse should (blow) cease to work:

■Remove the fuse by pulling it up and out of its slot. See figure 8.
■Examine the fuse to be sure it is blown. See figures 9 and 10.
■Insert a new fuse of the proper rating.
