ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Your Jazzy is a sophisticated power chair. Like any motorized vehicle, it requires routine maintenance checks. You
can perform some of these checks, but others require assistance from an authorized Pride provider. Preventive
maintenance is very important. If you follow the maintenance checks in this section as scheduled, you can help
ensure that your Jazzy gives you years of trouble-free operation. If you have any doubt as to your Jazzy’s care or
operation, contact your authorized Pride provider.
Your Jazzy, like most electrical equipment, is susceptible to damage from the elements. Avoid damp areas of any kind.
CAUTION! Direct exposure to water or dampness could cause the power chair to malfunction
electronically and mechanically. Water can cause electrical components to corrode and the chair’s
frame to rust.
Should your Jazzy come in contact with water:
1. Dry your Jazzy as thoroughly as possible with a dry towel.
2. Allow your Jazzy to sit in a warm, dry place for 12 hours to allow unseen water to evaporate.
3. Check the joystick operation and the brakes before using your Jazzy again.
4. If any inconsistencies are found, take your Jazzy to an authorized Pride provider.
TEMPERATURE
Some of the parts of your Jazzy are susceptible to extreme changes in temperature. Always keep your Jazzy
between the temperatures of 18° F/-8° C/ and 122° F/50° C.
n In extremely cold temperatures the batteries may freeze. The specific temperature at which they freeze de-
pends on a number of factors, such as battery charge, usage, and composition of the batteries (e.g., sealed
lead-acid or gel cell).
n Temperatures above 122° F/50° C may cause your Jazzy to operate at a reduced speed. This reduced speed
is a safety feature built into the controller that helps prevent damage to the motor and other electrical compo-
nents. See VIII. “Operation.”
Figure 40. Check Tire Pressure
GENERAL GUIDELINES
n Avoid knocking or bumping the controller, especially the joystick.
n Avoid prolonged exposure of your Jazzy to extreme conditions, such
as heat, cold, or moisture.
n Keep the controller clean.
n Check all controller connectors on the electronics tray to ensure that they
are all tight and secured properly. Also check the charger harness connec-
tor.
n When the battery condition meter is completely lit, the batteries are
fully charged, and the controller and the electrical system are OK.
n If one red bar on the battery condition meter is blinking slowly, the
batteries are low and need to be charged, but the controller and the
electrical system are OK.
n If the battery condition meter is blinking rapidly, the controller has de-
tected a fault in either its own circuits or in your Jazzy’s circuits. See
VIII. “Operation.”
n Make sure the drive tires are inflated to 30 – 35 psi . See figure 40.
