20. Maintenance and repairs
The user and attendant have to take care of some maintenance, service and
occasionally fault-finding activities. Other activities as described in this
paragraph should be carried out under supervision of your authorized dealer.
20.1 Battery charging
This wheelchair is provided with two maintenance free batteries. During
normal use, the batteries must be charged every day. It is most convenient to
make it a daily practice to charge the wheelchair during the night.
After having taken care of these precautions, charge the batteries by plugging
in the charger in the rear of the control unit first. Plug in the charger in the
mains secondly. Read the manual of your charger carefully for any other
precautions and user prescriptions. When the wheelchair is not used over a
longer period, recharge the batteries every four weeks to keep the batteries in
good condition. If the batteries are not charged regularly, the remaining
capacity will quickly drop.
20.2 Short term storage
For the charging process to produce a battery with good capacity, the
temperature in the storage room should not be lower than +5 degrees.
If it is stored at a temperature below +5 degrees, there is a higher risk that the
battery has not been fully charged when it comes to be used and also a higher
risk of corrosion.
● Only charge in a well-ventilated room with no sources of open fire.
● Turn of the control unit before charging
● Make sure the charging cable is not causing crashes of people
● When the charger is disconnected from the wheelchair, also disconnect
the charger from the mains.
● Place the charger in a place where it can radiate its heat freely during
charging
