Storage of the PaceSaver
Short Term and Overnight Storage
When ending PaceSaver’s use for the day, if the batteries do not need charging, simply
turn the key OFF and remove it. The next morning, put the key in, get in, lock the seat, turn
key ON and you are ready to go again. Should you leave the key on, the Battery Saver circuit
shuts the system down after 20 to 30 minutes. To reactivate the unit, turn the key off, then
back on.
