Basic Operation Instructions  
FLIGHT CONTROLLER  
The FLIGHT Controller is a modular electronic controller system that allows you to  
operate your power chair. It is designed to allow the user to have complete control  
over chair movement and speed.  
The controller has been pre-programmed to meet a typical user’s needs. The  
program is set using either a personal computer with software provided by the  
controller manufacturer or with a hand-held programmer, also provided by the  
controller manufacturer.  
WARNING! The controller program can affect speed,  
acceleration, deceleration, dynamic stability, and braking.  
If it is programmed incorrectly or outside of the safe limits  
as determined by your healthcare professional, it can create  
a dangerous situation. Only the power chair manufacturer,  
an authorized representative of the manufacturer, or a trained  
service technician should program the controller.  
PRECAUTIONARY GUIDELINES  
Before operating the FLIGHT Controller, please read the following. These  
guidelines are provided for your benefit and will aid you in the safe operation of  
the controller system.  
! Turn off the power to the controller when transferring to or from your power  
chair.  
! Follow all of the procedures and heed the warnings as explained in your power  
chair owners manual.  
Failure to heed the above warnings can result in personal injury and/or  
equipment damage.

Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference (EMI/RFI)  
WARNING! Laboratory tests have shown that electromagnetic  
and radio frequency waves can have an adverse affect on  
the performance of electrically-powered mobility vehicles.  
Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference can come from sources such as  
cellular phones, mobile two-way radios (such as walkie-talkies), radio stations, TV  
stations, amateurradio(HAM)transmitters, wirelesscomputerlinks, microwavesig-  
nals, pagingtransmitters, andmedium-rangemobiletransceiversusedbyemergency  
vehicles. In some cases, these waves can cause unintended movement or damage to  
thecontrolsystem. Everyelectrically-poweredmobilityvehiclehasanimmunity(or  
resistance) to EMI. The higher the immunity level, the greater the protection against  
EMI. This product has been tested and has passed at an immunity level of 20 V/m.  
WARNING! Be aware that cell phones, two-way radios,  
laptops, and other types of radio transmitters may cause  
unintended movement of your electrically-powered mobility  
vehicle due to EMI. Exercise caution when using any of these  
items while operating your mobility vehicle and avoid coming  
into close proximity of radio and TV stations.  
WARNING! The addition of accessories or components to  
the electrically-powered mobility vehicle can increase the  
susceptibility of the vehicle to EMI. Do not modify your power  
chair in any way not authorized by Pride.  
WARNING! The electrically-powered mobility vehicle itself  
can disturb the performance of other electrical devices  
located nearby, such as alarm systems.  
NOTE: For further information on EMI/RFI, go to the Resource Center on  
your controller off as soon as it is safe to do so. Call Pride or your authorized  
Pride Provider to report the incident.

Joystick Control  
The joystick controls the direction and speed of your power chair. When you  
move the joystick from the neutral (center) position, the electromagnetic brakes  
release and allow your power chair to move. The farther you push the joystick  
from its neutral position, the faster your power chair moves. When you release the  
joystick and allow it to return to the neutral position, you engage the electromag-  
netic brakes. This causes your power chair to decelerate and come to a complete  
stop.
