Storage
Your power chair should be stored in a dry place, free from temperature extremes. When storing,
disconnect the battery from the power chair and flip the battery switch to the “0” position. See “Batteries
and Charging.”
WARNING! If you fail to store the unit properly, the frame can corrode and the electronics can be
damaged.
Batteries that are regularly and deeply discharged, infrequently charged, stored in extreme temperatures,
or stored without a full charge may be permanently damaged, causing unreliable performance and limited
service life. It is recommended that you charge the battery periodically throughout periods of prolonged
storage to ensure proper performance.
You may wish to place several boards under the frame of your power chair to raise it off of the ground
during periods of prolonged storage. This takes the weight off the tires and reduces the possibility of flat
spots developing on the areas of the tires contacting the ground.
Disposal of Your Power Chair
Your power chair must be disposed of according to applicable local and national statutory regulations.
Contact your local waste disposal agency or authorized retailer for information on proper disposal of
power chair packaging, metal frame components, plastic components, electronics, batteries, neoprene,
silicone, and polyurethane materials.
