ing conditions, the charging cycle also has a pronounced
effect on the capacity and therefore on the range.
At temperatures of
< 0°
the battery capacity drops by up to
35%
in relation to the capacity for an outside temperature of
20°
. This shortens the range of the power wheelchair
accordingly. Moreover the battery capacity displayed on the
control panel can differ more significantly from the actual
battery capacity.
The following information should be observed for an optimal
charging cycle:
•
The batteries can be charged at any time, regardless of
the remaining battery capacity.
• It takes about 10 hours until a discharged battery (only
1 flashing segment) is completely charged. When the
charging process is complete, the battery charger can
remain connected to the power wheelchair with no risk
of overcharging or damaging the battery. The battery
charger features a programmed recharging phase that
will maintain the battery capacity at the level that has
been reached.
• If the power wheelchair is used every day, the battery
should be charged every night.
• Never discharge the batteries completely (deep dis­
charge).
• The batteries will gradually discharge if the wheelchair
is not used for extended periods of time. If the power
wheelchair is not used for an extended period, the bat­
teries should be charged
1 x per week
to maintain their
capacity.
• The fuse should be removed if the wheelchair is not
used for more than 3 days.
• The power wheelchair control unit must be switched off
while the batteries are charging to allow all of the char­
ging current to be fed into the battery.
