3.2
Batteries
For maintenance, see the following documentation:
−
Regulations concerning the batteries.
−
User manual of the battery charger.
The wheelchair has 'dry' gel batteries. These dry batteries (dry-fit) are entirely sealed and maintenance free.
The connection diagram for the batteries is provided on a sticker inside the battery tray.
−
Make sure that the batteries are always well charged.
−
Do not use the wheelchair if the batteries are almost flat. This may damage the batteries and
you run the risk of an unintended standstill.
−
The use of 'wet' batteries is not permitted. If the batteries need to be replaced, use only dry
batteries.
3.2.1
Replacing the batteries
If the capacity of the batteries is reduced to the extent that the wheelchair can only make very short trips or even
none at all, the batteries have reached the end of their lifespan. Replace them as soon as possible.
−
Contact your dealer, who will advise you what type of batteries is most suitable for the
wheelchair.
−
Avoid damage to the batteries when replacing them: this may cause the batteries to start
leaking.
Depending on the model of the wheelchair, it may be necessary to first remove or move the leg rests. You will now
have access to the battery tray.
