D. VR2 JOYSTICK ASSEMBLY
The standard VR2 joystick controls the chair’s performance. It consists of the following parts:
1. Speed Control or Drive Mode Selection Buttons (A and B)
To decrease the speed level depress button (A) Or, when 1- 5 Drive modes are pro-
grammed, depress button (A) to activate lower drive mode(s).
To increase speed level, depress button (B). Or, when 1- 5 Drive modes are programmed,
depress button (B) to activate higher drive mode(s).
Speed level active, or Drive Mode selected, is indicated on display (C) by a series of five
lights. One light indicates slowest level/mode currently active, while five lights indicates high-
est level/mode currently active.
2. Battery Charge Indicator (D)
•
Green lights indicate that batteries are fully charged.
•
Yellow lights indicate that batteries need recharging.
•
When the lights stay in the red band, the batteries must be recharged.
3. On/Off Button (E)

4. Horn (F)
5. Joystick (G)
The joystick controls the direction and speed of your chair. Turn the chair on and move the
joystick in the direction you want to go.
•
Moving the joystick from the neutral (center) position disengages the motor locks,
allowing the chair to move.
•
The chair will move faster the more you move the joystick away from neutral.
Note–
If your speed becomes hard to manage, release the Joystick and the chair will come to a
complete stop.
•
When you release the joystick it will return to neutral; the chair will slow to a stop
and the motor locks will reengage.
•
We recommend that you switch the chair off if you stop for any length of time. This
will conserve battery power.
Note–
Once the chair stops, switching the chair off will not affect the motor locks.
6. Joystick Boot (H)
Make sure the boot is not torn or cracked (this could allow debris, water or moisture to
enter). If the boot is torn or cracked, replace it as soon as you can.
7. Tilt Control (SC only) (I)
You can depress either button (I), to enter Tilt Mode, this action will allow you to control the
up and down movement of the tilt. Once in Tilt Mode, push the joystick either forward to tilt
back, or pull the joystick back to tilt forward. Pressing button (I) a second time will exit Tilt
Mode and allow regular driving operations to resume.
