8. Maintenance and Troubleshooting 

8.1 Maintenance 

1.

 

Frequent maintenance is required for your 
Powerchair if driving on grassy, sandy or graveled 
roads. 

2.

 

To prevent damage of electrical components and 
computer units, the Powerchair should be cleaned 
with clothes soaked in water or motor oil but not 
chemical solvents. 

3.

 

Examination and service should be carried out by 
your KYMCO Healthcare approved Dealer. 
Unauthorized self-maintenance or self-service may 
lead to unwanted damage. 

4.

 

Clean the vehicle with soft, clean clothes soaked in 
neutral or mild cleansing agents. 

Note: 

Before vehicle maintenance, turn off the power and

remove the “24V output cable” of the charger. 

Do not clean with water jet spray as it may lead to

malfunction of electric circuits. 

Do not use gasoline or volatile solvents as they may

affect the contour of vehicle or cause damage. 

Do not apply vehicle wax.
