BATTERIES AND CHARGING

The Z-Chair uses two long-lasting, 12-volt, deep-cycle batteries. These batteries are sealed and maintenance free. Since they
are sealed, there is no need to check the electrolyte (fluid) level. Deep-cycle batteries are designed to handle a longer and
deeper discharge. Though they are similar in appearance to automotive batteries, they are not interchangeable. Automotive
batteries are not designed to handle a long, deep discharge, and also are unsafe for use in travel chairs.

WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds.

Wash hands after handling.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Do not use batteries that exceed the

recommended type and amp-hour capacity. Do not use batteries with different amp-hour capacities.

Refer to specifications table in this manual and in the manual supplied with the battery charger

for recommended type and capacities.

NOTE: For more information on battery charging, refer to the operation manual supplied with your
battery charger.

Charging the Batteries

The battery charger is essential in providing long life for your Z-Chair batteries. It is designed to optimize your travel chair’s
performance by charging the batteries safely, quickly, and easily.

PROHIBITED! Removal of grounding prong can create electrical hazard. If necessary, properly

install an approved 3-pronged adapter to an electrical outlet having 2-pronged plug access. Failure

to heed could result in personal injury and/or property damage.

PROHIBITED! Never use an extension cord to plug in your battery charger. Plug the charger directly

into a properly wired standard wall outlet.

WARNING! You must recharge your travel chair’s batteries with the supplied battery charger. Do

not use an automotive-type battery charger.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Read the battery charging instructions in

this manual and in the manual supplied with the battery charger before charging the batteries.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Do no expose the off-board battery charger

to rain or other sources of moisture unless it has been tested for outdoor use. Refer to the manual

supplied with the battery charger for more information.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Explosive gases may be generated while

charging the batteries. Keep the travel chair and the battery charger away from sources of ignition

such as flames or sparks and provide adequate ventilation when charging the batteries.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Inspect the battery charger, wiring, and

connectors for damage before each use. Contact your authorized Pride Provider if damage is

found.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Do not attempt to open the battery charger

case. If the battery charger does not appear to be working correctly, contact your authorized

Pride Provider.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! If the off-board battery charger is equipped

with cooling slots, then do not attempt to insert objects through these slots.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Do not allow unsupervised children to play

near the travel chair while the batteries are charging.
