Compass TRO Owner’s Manual – Models GP615SS, GP615CC Revised 02/13/09

SAFETY

Your Compass TRO™ is a battery-operated personal mobility vehicle. Please exercise

caution and consideration when you are operating it. Driving your Compass TRO™

carefully and thoughtfully will help ensure your personal safety and the safety of other

people.

NOTE: Before learning to operate your Compass TRO™, have your Golden

Technologies, Inc. representative determine if it is advisable for you to

practice getting on and off your Compass TRO™and operating it in the

presence of an attendant.

BEFORE GETTING ON YOUR Compass TRO™

♦Check to be certain that the power is turned off. See “Operation” on page 22. This

will eliminate the possibility of accidentally activating the joystick and causing

injury to yourself or to others.

♦Check to be certain that your Compass TRO™is not in freewheel mode. See the

“Operation” section on page 26.

♦Flip up the armrests.

♦If your chair is equipped with leg rests, move them to the sides.

♦If your chair is equipped with a footrest, flip it to the “up” position.

GETTING ON YOUR Compass TRO™

♦While being careful not to entangle yourself in the leg rests or the footrest, seat

yourself comfortably and securely on the seat.

♦Adjust the leg rests or flip down the footrest.

♦Flip down the armrests.

♦Fasten the lap belt, if your chair is so equipped.

GETTING OFF YOUR Compass TRO™

♦Make certain that the power is turned off.

♦Unfasten the lap belt, if your chair is so equipped.

♦Flip up the armrests.

♦Flip up the footrest, or move the leg rests to the sides.

♦While being careful not to entangle yourself in the leg rests or the footrest,

carefully stand and step away from the chair.

MAXIMUM WEIGHT

Your Compass TRO™has been rated to a maximum payload (passenger and anything

else being carried on the Compass TRO™)of 300 pounds. Exceeding the maximum

weight rating will void the warranty.

Exceeding the maximum weight rating will void your warranty and may result in

injury to yourself or to others.

Compass TRO Owner’s Manual – Models GP615SS, GP615CC Revised 02/13/09

SAFETY

DRIVING ON AN INCLINE

♦Drive with caution when attempting to negotiate any incline, even handicap access

ramps.

♦Always climb or descend a gradient by driving straight up or straight down the face

of the slope.

♦Do not traverse or drive across the face of a gradient.

♦Do not attempt to negotiate an incline that is covered with snow, ice, cut or wet

grass, leaves, or any other potentially hazardous material.

♦Do not back down an incline.

♦Try to keep your Compass TRO™moving when climbing an incline. If you do come

to a stop, restart and accelerate slowly and carefully.

♦Do not try to descend or climb an incline that is greater than the maximum incline

stated in the specifications section of this manual.

If, while you are driving down a slope, your chair starts to move faster

than you feel is safe, gently release the joystick and allow your

Compass TRO™to come to a stop. When you feel that you again have

control of your power chair, adjust the speed control to a lower

setting then push the joystick forward and continue safely down the

remainder of the slope.

MEDICATION

Always check with your physician to determine if any of the medications you are taking

may affect your judgment and/or your ability to operate your Compass TRO™.

Do not connect or allow anyone except an authorized Golden

Technologies, Inc. representative to connect any electrical or

mechanical device to your Compass TRO™. Unauthorized accessories

will void the warranty and may cause injury.

♦Always cross streets at intersections and use the most direct route, making sure

that your path is clear and that you are visible to motor traffic.

1/2 inches.

♦Never back up or down a step or curb.

Compass TRO Owner’s Manual – Models GP615SS, GP615CC Revised 02/13/09

EMI/RFI

The rapid development of electronics, especially in the area of communications, has

saturated our environment with electromagnetic (radio) waves that are emitted by

television transmitters, cellular phones, citizen’s band radios (CBs), amateur radios

(ham radios), wireless computer links, microwave transmitters, paging transmitters,

etc. These electromagnetic (EM) waves are invisible and increase in strength the closer

one gets to the source of transmission. When these energy waves act upon electrical

devices and cause them to malfunction or to function in an erratic or uncontrolled

manner, they are referred to as Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) or Radio Frequency

Interference (RFI).

EMI/RFI AND YOUR Compass TRO™

All electrically powered vehicles, including power chairs are susceptible to EMI/RFI.

This interference could result in abnormal, unintended movement of a power

wheelchair.

The FDA has determined that each make and model of power chair can resist EMI/RFI

to a certain level. The higher the level of immunity, the greater the degree of protection

from EMI/RFI measured in volts per meter (V/m). The FDA has also determined that

current technology is capable of providing 20 V/m of immunity to EMI/RFI, which

would provide useful protection against common sources of interference.

Based on that determination, the FDA has written to the manufacturers of power

wheelchairs and asked them to test their new products to be certain that they provide a

reasonable degree of immunity to EMI/RFI. The FDA suggests that power chairs

should have an immunity level of 20 V/m.

The immunity level of the Compass TRO™ is unknown.

EMI/RFI RECOMMENDATIONS

♦Do not turn on or use hand-held personal electronic communication devices such as

cellular phones, walkie-talkies, and CB radios while your power chair is turned on.

♦Be aware of any nearby transmitters (radio, television, microwave, etc.) on your in-

tended route and avoid operating your chair close to any of those transmitters.

♦Turn off the power if your Compass TRO™is going to be in a stationary position for

any length of time.

♦Be aware that adding accessories or components or modifying your power chair

may make it more susceptible to EMI/RFI.

♦If unintended movement or brake release occurs, turn your power chair off as soon

as it is safe to do so.

♦Report all incidents of unintended movement or brake failure to your Golden repre-

sentative or to Golden Technologies, Inc. at (800) 624-6374.

Turn off your power chair as soon as it is safely possible if

unintended or uncontrollable motion occurs or if unintended brake

release occurs.
