Temperature
Some of the parts of your electric Recreational Vehicle are susceptible to
extreme changes in temperature. Always keep your electric Recreational
Vehicle between the temperatures of -20°C and50°C. In extremely cold
temperatures the batteries may freeze. The specific temperature at which they
freeze depends on a number of factors, such as battery charge, usage, and
composition of the batteries. Temperatures above 50°C may cause your
electric Recreational Vehicle to operate at a reduced speed. This reduced
speed is a safety feature built into the controller that helps prevent damage to
the motor and other electrical components.
46.1 General Guidelines
Avoid knocking or bumping the controller, especially the joystick. Avoid
prolonged exposure of your Chair to extreme conditions, such as heat, cold, or
moisture.
Keep the controller clean.
Check all connectors to ensure that they are all tight and secured properly.
WARNING! Even though the electric Recreational Vehicle has passed the
necessary testing requirements for ingress of liquids, you should keep
electrical connections away from sources of dampness, including direct
exposure to water or bodily fluids and incontinence. Check electrical
components frequently for signs of corrosion and replace as necessary.
