The wheelchair is equipped with quality Lithium batteries. Lithium batteries are a
modern technology which is not suffering from memory effects like some older
battery types, which means that Lithium batteries can be charged anytime, also e.g.
if they were only half discharged. It is recommended to charge the battery after each
use. This will not reduce the battery life. Charging an empty battery takes about 7
hours and it will take less time if there is still charge remaining in the battery. Please
note the wheelchair may have a lower top speed when the batteries are near empty.
Battery Care & Storage
Lithium batteries must not be stored if fully discharged. If your battery is fully
discharged, charge it as soon as possible. Storing the battery if fully discharged will
damage the battery. Such damage is not covered by the
manufacturer’s
fault
warranty. It is recommend to store the batteries fully charged and then charge it
every two months. It is not necessary to leave the charger connected to the battery if
stored for long periods. Just top the charge up every two months.
