The battery gauge
The battery gauge indicates how much battery charge remains.
Battery Gauge Indicates
Battery full
Battery almost full
Battery half full, drive to a charger
Battery low, recharge soon
Battery almost empty, recharge now
Battery empty, recharge immediately
The remaining battery capacity does not translate directly to remaining physical range of the
power chair. The remaining physical range depends on the ambient temperature, the
capacity, age and state of the battery, the driving style of the operator and the terrain that the
power chair is being used in.
Battery Warnings
Battery warnings are shown at the centre of the screen, in the "Active Mode" area.
Warning Icon Meaning
Battery overcharged.
 Slow down and turn on the lights (if fitted).
Battery completely empty. System turns off.
 Recharge.
5.1.3. Complete charge:
A complete charge is long (from 10 to 12 hours), but efficient.
An incomplete charge will also reduce the durability of your batteries by one charging
cycle.
The battery will not have enough time to store the energy correctly.
It will not be able to reconstitute the missing energy. The autonomy will be reduced.
A series of incomplete charges will have an even more disastrous effect: with the different
batteries charged incompletely and to different levels.
They will be out of balance and the entire set will have its life time reduced.
Conclusion:
To maintain maximum autonomy and optimise the durability of your batteries, every
charging cycle started should be completed.
Repeated short or incomplete charging cycles gradually reduce your batteries
’ capacity.
5.2 : Charger
Use only the charger provided with the wheelchair. It is designed for the batteries of your
vehicle.
