Sundancer

Onboard Battery Charger

The onboard battery charger converts household current (AC) to direct current (DC) and charges your Sundancer’s

batteries. See V. “Batteries and Charging.”

n

The charger is located on the utility tray.

n

The charger is a gray-colored box with a green LED indicator on the exterior of the case.

Main Circuit Breaker

When the voltage in your Sundancer’s batteries becomes low or your Scooter is heavily strained because of

excessive loads, the main circuit breaker may trip to protect your Sundancer’s motor and electronics from damage.

n

The main circuit breaker reset button is mounted on the electronic controller module cover.

n

The main circuit breaker reset button pops out when the breaker trips.

n

When the breaker trips, the entire electrical system of your Sundancer is shut down.

n

Allow a minute or so for your Sundancer’s electronics to “rest.”

n

Push in the reset button to reset the breaker.

n

If the breaker trips frequently, you may need to charge your batteries more often or have your Pride provider

perform a 50-amp load test on your Sundancer’s batteries.

n

If the main circuit breaker trips repeatedly, see your authorized Pride provider for service.

Manual Freewheel Lever

Whenever you want to push your Sundancer for short distances, you can put it in manual freewheel mode.

I V .   D E S C R I P T I O N

WARNING! It is important to remember that when your Sundancer is in freewheel mode, the

braking system is disengaged.

Follow these safety rules when using the freewheel mode:

n

Do not disengage the drive motors when your Sundancer is on an incline; your Scooter could

roll down on its own and cause injury!

n

Before placing your Sundancer in or taking it out of freewheel mode, ensure the key is removed

from the key switch.

n

Never sit on your Scooter when it is in freewheel mode.

n

When you have finished pushing your Sooter, always return it to the drive mode to lock the

brakes.

n

The manual freewheel lever is located on the end of the motor/transaxle assembly at the right rear of the

Sundancer.

n

Pull up on the manual freewheel lever to disable the drive system and the brake system; you will then be able

to push your Sundancer.

n

Push down on the manual freewheel lever to reengage the drive system and the brake system and take your

Sundancer out of freewheel mode.
