Batteries and Battery Charger
Batteries
The powerchair is supplied with two maintenance free, sealed lead acid AGM
batteries. These are fitted under the seat on the scooter.
Battery performance can be affected by low temperatures, rough terrain and
the weight of the user. Your battery gauge is a guide only on the level of
charge remaining in the batteries.
An active user can use 30% of the battery capacity or more per day.
An inactive user may only use 50% of the battery capacity in a week.
Battery Charger
The battery charger is a 3-amp transformer type off board. The battery
charging port is located on the underside of the joystick. There is also a
charge socket on the battery pack. This special feature allows the batteries to
be charged independently of the main powerchair.
Before using your powerchair for the first time be sure to fully charge the
batteries, this may take up to 12 hours.
To charge the batteries connect the 3-pin male charger plug into the charging
socket on the battery pack. Plug the 3-pin mains plug into a wall socket and
switch on. A red light will illuminate on the charger. This light will change to
green once the charge cycle is complete.
Caution! Do not charge the batteries for longer than 12 hours. Always
charge the batteries in a well-ventilated indoor area. You must still
maintain charging the batteries even if the powerchair is not to be used
for a prolonged period of time (2 to 3 weeks). Failure to do so could
result in permanent damage and render the batteries unusable.
Wherever possible do not interrupt the charge cycle until the batteries
are fully charged. Continual interruption can permanently damage the
batteries. If the charging lead should get damaged discontinue use
immediately and seek a replacement from your dealer. ONLY USE THE
CHARGER SUPPLIED WITH YOUR POWERCHAIR. Do not leave the
charger plugged into to the charger port after the charge is complete.
ALWAYS turn off the scooter’s power when charging.
Disposing and recycling of used batteries
Batteries must always be recycled correctly. Do not dispose of them
with your domestic refuge.
For further information regarding your nearest recycling facility please
contact your local authority.
