XI. BATTERIES & CHARGING
CHARGING YOUR POWER WHEELCHAIR
To charge your power wheelchair, position the front of the unit next to a standard
electrical outlet. Be certain the freewheel levers are engaged, and the power is turned
off. Plug the charger into the electrical outlet, and then into the power wheelchair.
When the batteries are fully charged remove the charger from the power wheelchair,
and then from the electrical outlet.
SUGGESTION – The lights on your charger indicate different charge
statuses. The light indicators can be found on the charger itself, or the
manual provided with the charger. In most cases your charger will show a
red or orange light when charging, and a green light when fully charged.
BATTERY BREAK-IN
To ensure maximum use from your new batteries fully charge the power wheelchair
prior to initial use for 8 to 12 hours. Operate your power wheelchair until the battery
gauge shows only red and orange lights, and then give your power wheelchair another
full charge for 8 to 12 hours.
BATTERY MAINTENANCE & CHARGING HABITS
To ensure maximum life from your batteries, and continued use of your power
wheelchair please follow these charging guidelines based on your usage:
SUGGESTION – If you use your power wheelchair on a daily basis, charge
the batteries as soon as you are finished with the day’s activities, and
leave it on the charge until you are ready to use the following day.
SUGGESTION – If you use your power wheelchair infrequently, charge the
batteries once a week for 10 to 14 hours.
