Programming the Chair:
a. Insert Quickie Hand Held Programmer or Quickie PC Setup Station plug into the
Programmer socket on the front of the joystick.
b. Program as needed.
c. Remove plug.
Q-NOTE–
Review the Quickie Hand Held Programmer or Quickie PC Setup Station Owner’s Manual
for more details on how to program your chair.
E. THERMAL ROLL-BACK
Your chair has a thermal roll back circuit. This protects the controller from damage due to
overheating. In extreme conditions (such as repetitive hill climbing) the circuit will decrease
the power to your motors. This allows the chair to operate at a reduced speed. When the
controller cools, the chair will return to normal speed.
F. CIRCUIT BREAKERS
Your Quickie Rhythm has a single circuit breaker.
• In the unlikely event of a short circuit or heavy overload, all power to your chair will be
shut off.
• To reset your chair, depress the circuit breaker button. A few minutes wait is required
before the circuit breaker will reset.
Repeated Shutdown:
If the chair continues to shut down after resetting, have it serviced by a supplier.
G. JOYSTICK ASSEMBLY
The joystick connects to a controller, which controls the chair’s performance. The joystick
assembly consists of the following parts:
Q-NOTE–
Review the Quickie QR Owner’s Manual for more details on the functions of your joystick.
1. On/Off Button (V)
The On/Off Button allows you to turn your wheelchair on and off. When you press the
On/Off Button the lights on the joystick will illuminate and the chair’s power will be turned
on. Press the button again and the chair’s power will be turned off.
2. Speed Control Knob (D) (QR Option)
Use the speed control knob to adjust the maximum speed of your chair. Turn it counter-
clockwise to reduce speed; turn it clockwise to increase speed.
3. Battery Charge Indicator (B) (standard)
• Green lights indicate that batteries are fully charged.
• Amber lights indicate that batteries need recharging.
• When the lights stay in the red band, the batteries must be recharged.
5. On/Off Mode switch (A) (option)
The on/off mode switch is located on the rear face of the joystick housing. It is a toggle
switch. Turning the chair on or off, is accomplished by pressing the switch downward. The
switch will automatically return to the center point. Alternate locations exist for this switch.
Please see your supplier in the event that you wish to relocate or re-orient this switch.
