Invacare® Orion Series
• Driving with blinking red LED means an extreme stress
for the battery and should be avoided under normal
circumstances.
• When only one red LED is blinking, the Battery
Safe feature is enabled. From this time, speed and
acceleration is reduced drastically. It will allow you to
move the mobility device slowly out of a dangerous
situation before the electronic finally cuts off. This is
deep discharging and should be avoided.
• Be aware that for temperatures below 20 °C, the
nominal battery capacity starts to decline. For example,
at -10 °C the capacity is reduced to about 50 % of the
nominal battery capacity.
• To avoid damaging the batteries, never allow them to
be fully discharged. Do not drive on heavily discharged
batteries if it is not absolutely necessary, as this will
strain the batteries unduly and shorten their life
expectancy.
• The earlier you recharge the batteries, the longer they
live.
• The depth of discharge affects the cycle life. The harder
a battery has to work, the shorter is its life expectancy.
Examples:
– One deep discharge stresses the same as 6 normal
cycles (green /orange display off).
– The battery life is about 300 cycles at 80 % discharge
(first 3 LED off), or about 3000 cycles at 10 %
discharge.
• Under normal operation, once a month the battery
should be discharged until all green and orange LED are
off. This should be done within one day. A 16 hour
charge afterwards is necessary as reconditioning.
7.2.7 Transporting batteries
The batteries supplied with your mobility device are
not hazardous goods. This classification is based on the
German GGVS Hazardous Goods Road Transport Ordinances,
and the IATA/DGR Hazardous Goods Rail Transport / Air
Transport Ordinances. Batteries may be transported without
restrictions, whether by road, rail or by air. Individual
transport companies have, however, guidelines which can
possibly restrict or forbid certain transport procedures.
Please ask the transport company regarding each individual
case.
7.2.8 General Instructions on Handling the Batteries
• Never mix and match different battery manufactures or
technologies, or use batteries that do not have similar
date codes.
• Never mix gel with AGM batteries.
• The batteries reach their end of life when the drive
range is significantly smaller than usual. Contact your
provider or service technician for details.
• Always have your batteries installed by a properly
trained mobility device technician or a person with
adequate knowledge. They have the necessary training
and tools to do the job safely and correctly.
7.2.9 Removing the batteries
1. Remove seat.
2. Remove battery and motor compartment cover.
