the PM. The cause can be:
?
The wheelchair is still on charge and the batteries are full or faulty
?
The batteries are overcharged
?
The wheelchair is travelling down a slope and the batteries are full or faulty
The wheelchair will drive during this fault condition which will reset automatically
when the battery voltage drops below 28v.
Battery Low warning condition
This condition occurs when the battery voltage drops below 23.3V, when the
wheelchair is still.
The cause can be:
?
If the battery gauge flashes with orange or green LEDs lit, but the
cause is not due to a battery high fault, the battery or battery wiring
may be faulty.

A battery low warning normally coincides with a low capacity warning.
Low capacity warning condition
When the calculated available battery capacity drops below 10% of full capacity
the bottom red LED flashes.
The wheelchair will drive during this fault condition but it shows that the battery
is in the reserve capacity range and battery capacity will begin to reduce very
