Disconnect the plug and socket between the battery and the power assist unit (D)
and connect the charger to the battery. Connect the battery charger to a mains
supply and switch on. The indicator light will illuminate green to show a correct
connection has been made. After a few moments the light will either change to
red to indicate the battery is in need of charging or if it stays green the battery is
fully charged and the charger can be disconnected.
When the battery is fully charged the indicator light will change from red to green.
At this point the charger stops charging the battery. The battery cannot be
overcharged, at this point; the charger can either be disconnected completely or
left plugged in and switched on until the power assist unit is required for further use. It is not recommended
that the battery is left connected to the charger indefinitely. An overnight charge is generally appropriate
for the battery to receive a complete charge.
Always disconnect the mains supply before disconnecting the battery. Do not leave the charger connected
to the battery when the mains supply is either switched off or disconnected. This may cause the battery to
discharge.
For a complete charge – Do not switch off, unplug or interrupt the recharge cycle until the charging cycle
has completed. Make sure that the charger indicator light is green before you unplug your charger.
Depending on the state of the charge in the battery, the charge time may be as much as ten hours. This
time may increase for older the batteries. It is not advisable to put batteries on charge that are already fully
charged. Although the batteries can be put on charge for a short period of time, continual charging in this
manner will shorten battery life and performance will be reduced.
The battery should not be run completely flat or you may find that you are unable to recharge it. (Contact
your local dealer or Magic Mobility).
If the power assist unit is going to be put away or stored for some time, always ensure that the battery is
fully charged before storing. To avoid battery deterioration, the wheelchair power assist unit should not be
left for a period of two months or more without charging.
WARNING! Do not allow charger to get wet or use in the rain
WARNING! Do not smoke or use a naked flame while your batteries are being charged
WARNING! Do not use the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or
otherwise misused in any way. Take it to a qualified technician for inspection.
WARNING! Do not dismantle the charger. This will void the warranty.
7 Care & Maintenance
Your wheelchair requires routine maintenance checks. You can perform some of these checks, but it is
recommended that every 12 months the chair is inspected by a factory authorised service facility. Repairs
or replacements should only be carried out with manufacturer-approved components to assure proper
performance (see section 7, Servicing).
STOP! Do not use parts and accessories other than those authorised by Magic Mobility. This
may void your warranty and cause damage to your wheelchair.
