Power System and Recharging
The Shuttle needs to be charged on a regular basis. The Shuttle is also designed to operate from
115V to 220V AC power source such as a standard wall outlet. The batteries are sealed and
service free. Do not exceed 6 hours of charge time.
AC Power
During initial setup of the Shuttle, it is recommended to charge batteries for a minimum 2-3
hours prior to use.
To connect the Shuttle to a wall outlet, use the retractable power cord provided on the left hand
side of the Shuttle. When the unit is connected, switch the unit power switch on the fuse box
located at the back of the Shuttle. A green light will indicate the Shuttle is energized. If the
Shuttle is connected to AC power source and the green light does not turn on, check the two in
line fuses. If needed, replace fuses as marked. Batteries are being charged while Shuttle is
plugged into wall outlet. DO NOT leave the Shuttle unattended when charging for more than six
hours.
