III. SAFETY GUIDELINES WEIGHT CAPACITY This scooter has a maximum weight capacity that should never be exceeded. Please refer to Section XII SPECIFICATIONS for this information. The maximum weight capacity includes the user and any accessories. WARNING - Exceeding the maximum weight capacity will void your warranty. Drive Medical will not be held responsible for injuries and/or damages resulting from failure to observe weight capacities. WARNING - Do not carry passengers on your scooter. Your scooter is designed and tested for one user to operate while seated. INCLINE GUIDELINES Use caution when approaching inclines or declines; if necessary lower the speed before travelling on a slope. When travelling up an incline try to keep the scooter moving forward. If you must come to a stop, use caution and slowly accelerate the scooter forward. When travelling down an incline lower the speed on your scooter to the slowest setting, and proceed cautiously. If the scooter is travelling down the incline faster than you expected, slowly release the throttle to come to a stop, then slightly push the throttle forward to continue safely down the incline. WARNING - Never put the scooter in freewheel model while on an incline. WARNING - Drive your scooter straight up or down an incline, never backwards. Erratic movements, or back and forth patterns may increase the chance of tipping. Spitfire Scout Owner's Manual 7 www.drivemedical.com REV3.9.29.14
