THERMAL ROLLBACK
Your Alante II´ is equipped with a safety system. A microprocessor
monitors the operating temperatures of the joystick controller. In the
event of excessive heat occurring in the joystick controller, the joystick
controller will decrease the speed of your chair. This is done to reduce
the load on the electrical system and allow the components to dissipate
heat. The joystick controller will automatically set the chair’s speed back
to full normal when the operating temperature returns to normal levels.
