2.22 Thermal fuse
To protect the motor against overload, on the
back of the wheelchair topside of the first battery
housing, there is a thermal safety mechanism
that will automatically cut off the motor to prevent
overheating and thus rapid wear and tear or
breakdowns. This can occur if you go up or down
slopes that exceed the maximum gradient
indicated. Nominal loads exceeding the
maximum could also trigger the safety
mechanism.
To be able to use the electric wheelchair again, remove the overload and wait till the motor
has cooled down. Then gently press the thermal safety mechanism back in. Your wheelchair
is now ready for use again.
