WARNING: To minimise the risk of injury from improper and unsafe use of
this cane, read these instructions and safety precautions before using.
Intended Purpose:
This cane is a walking aid to assist those who have reduced mobility.
Safety Precautions:
- Consult a healthcare professional before using any assisted mobility device.
- Not to be used by persons heavier than the maximum user mass (see Specifications).
- Not intended to support the full weight of the user.

- When assembling individual segments, keep fingers away to avoid being pinched.
- Do not stretch the internal elastic cord more than necessary to assemble or disassemble the segments. Do not use the cane if the elastic cord is cut, frayed, or damaged.
- Applying downward pressure on the tip (e.g. stepping on the tip) while lifting the handle can cause the cane segments to separate and the cane to collapse, possibly causing the user to fall.
- Both handles must be held by the user for support, when standing up from a seated position.
- If the handles or tip becomes loose, or if the cane becomes damaged, stop using the cane immediately.
