DL controller is connected to the motors, the batteries, and the battery charger through a cable that connects to the
utility tray.
JOYSTICK FUNCTIONS
The joystick function is similar for all controller configurations. The joystick controls the direction and speed of the
power chair. When you move the joystick from the neutral (center) position, the electromagnetic brakes release
and allow the power chair to move. The further you push the joystick from its neutral position the faster your Jazzy
moves. When you release the joystick and allow it to return to the neutral position, you engage the electromagnetic
brakes. This causes the chair to decelerate and come to a complete stop. If your Jazzy begins to move in an
unexpected manner, immediately release the joystick. Unless the joystick is damaged, this action should stop your
Jazzy.
DYNAMIC DL CONTROLLER
The Dynamic DL controller is an integral controller. This means
that the joystick is housed in the same enclosure as the controller
module. This assembly is mounted on the seat arm. The Dynamic
Speed and Response Adjustments
The Dynamic DL joystick is equipped with a speed and response adjustment knob that allows you to select the
speed and response settings best suited to your requirements and environment. When you increase the speed
(clockwise) or decrease the speed (counterclockwise), appropriate changes are automatically made to the sensitivity.
NOTE: We recommend that you turn the speed and response knob completely counterclockwise the first
few times you operate your Jazzy to allow you to become familiar with your new power chair.
Battery Condition Meter
The battery condition meter is located immediately behind the joystick. This enables you to monitor battery life.
The battery condition meter indicates the approximate amount of battery life left. See figure 4.

Red, yellow, and green circles indicate that the batteries are fully charged.

Red and yellow circles indicate that you should charge the batteries if possible.
n
Red circles indicate that you should charge the batteries as soon as possible, because low battery voltage may
cause your Jazzy to become inoperative.
WARNING! Do not use on/off key to stop chair. This may cause injury!

JAZZY OPERATION/CONTROLLER
You control the speed and direction of your Jazzy by moving the

farther you push the joystick from the neutral (center)
