BATTERY REPLACEMENT
MANDATORY! Always wear gloves and goggles when handling the
power chair batteries. Your power chair batteries are sealed but
also contain lead and lead compounds so extra caution should
always be taken when handling your batteries, battery posts,
terminals, and accessories.
WARNING! Always change both (two) batteries – never change just a
single battery. Always use batteries of the exact same type, chemistry, and
amp hour (A.h) capacity. See Figure 6 on page 11 for your battery type details.
PROHIBITED! Never allow any tools and/or battery cables to inadvertently
make contact with the battery posts. An electrical short is possible and
serious injury or damage to the power chair may occur.
WARNING! The batteries in your power chair should only be serviced or
replaced by an authorized Zip'r Provider.
WARNING! Never replace just one battery. Always replace both batteries
at the same time.
