2.30 Batteries Discharge Very Quickly
The ambient temperature has a significant effect on battery
capacity. Therefore, if the temperature is lower than normal
the wheelchair’s range will be reduced. In this situation, the
TruCharge battery gauge still gives an accurate state-of-
charge reading. Chapter 6 section 24.5.
2.31 Basic Tests
These tests are a minimum recommendation only. It is the
responsibility of the service person(s) to perform other tests
relevant to the original trip and wheelchair type are carried
out. Refer to the wheelchair’s Technical Manual for exact
information of other tests. PGDT accept no liability for losses
of any kind arising from the carrying out of the described
tests, or from not carrying out additional relevant tests.
These tests should be conducted in an open space and a
restraining device such as a seat belt should always be
used. PGDT accepts no liability for losses of any kind arising
from failure to comply with this condition. Chapter 6 section
4.
2.32 Gradient Test
Before carrying out this test ensure another person is
present to prevent the wheelchair from tipping backwards.
Chapter 6 section 4.4.
2.33 Servicing of Defective Units
Any replacement work carried out without the wheelchair
manufacturer’s permission will invalidate the control
system’s warranty.
PGDT accept no liability for losses of any kind arising from
unauthorized opening, adjustments or modifications to a
any component of a control system. Chapter 6 section 5.
