Initial Battery Usage
When your batteries arrive they will require additional charging. Your batteries will reach peak
charging capacity after approximately four or five full charging cycles. Your power chair
batteries should be charged at least once per week whether or not the power chair is being used.
WARNING! Keep your batteries fully charged and avoid deeply discharging
your batteries. Do not charge the batteries for more than 24 hours.
Extending Battery Life
o Keep the power chair batteries fully charged whenever possible.
o Store batteries in a warm (not hot) and dry environment after fully charging them.
o When shipping your power chair, pack the batteries separately from the power chair.
