Although your power wheelchair will resume its normal speed when the 

temperature returns to a safe level, we recommend that you turn the power off and 

wait for 5 minutes before restarting to allow the components to cool down if you 

find that you have lost speed suddenly. 

   

F.  Main Circuit Breaker: 

The main circuit breaker reset button is located near the seat. (Fig 23)   

 

Breaker

                   

 

                          (Fig 23)

 

The main circuit breaker monitors the electric current drawn from the battery. It is 

a safety feature built in your power wheelchair for your extra safety. When the 

batteries and motors are heavily strained (e.g., from excessive loads),the main 

circuit breaker will trip to prevent damage to the motors and the electronics. If the 

circuit breaker trips, wait for approximately one minute and then depress the 

button to reset it. Then turn on the controller power, and continue normal opera- 

tion. If the main circuit breaker continues to trip repeatedly, contact your   

authorized dealer.
