VI. BATTERIES AND CHARGING
To charge the batteries using the off-board charger:
1. Position the front of your power chair next to a standard
electrical outlet.
2. Be certain the controller power is turned off and the
freewheel levers are in the engaged position. See III.
“Your Power Chair.”
3. Plug the off-board charger into the off-board charger/
programming socket on the controller. See gure 19.
4. Plug the off-board charger into the electrical outlet.
WARNING! The LED lights on the charger
indicate different charger conditions at
various times: charger power on, charging in
progress, and charging complete. If the LED
does not indicate that charging is complete
within 24 hours, unplug the charger from
the outlet and contact your Quantum Rehab
provider. Refer to the manual supplied with
the charger for a complete explanation of
these indicators.
5. When the batteries are fully charged, unplug the off-
board charger from the electrical outlet and then from
the controller.

Battery Break-in
To break in new batteries for maximum ef ciency:
1. Fully recharge any new battery prior to its initial use. This brings the battery up to about 90% of its peak per-
formance level.
2. Operate your power chair throughout the house and yard. Move slowly at rst, and do not travel too far until
you become accustomed to the controls and break in the batteries.
3. Give the batteries another full charge of at least 8 to 14 hours and operate your power chair again. The batter-
ies will now perform at over 90% of their potential.
4. After four or ve charging cycles, the batteries will top off at 100% charge and last for an extended period.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the charger work?
The battery charger takes the standard electrical outlet voltage (alternating current) and converts it to 24 VDC
(direct current). The power chair batteries use direct current to run your power chair. When the battery voltage
is low, the charger works harder to charge the battery. As the battery voltage approaches full charge, the charger
does not work as hard to complete the charging cycle. This explains why the ammeter drops as it approaches a full
charge. This is how the charger maintains a charge but does not overcharge the battery.
Can I use a different battery charger?
You should use the charger supplied with the power chair. It is the safest, most ef cient tool to charge the batteries.
We do not recommend using other types of chargers (e.g., an automotive battery charger).
NOTE: Your power chairs charger will not operate after the batteries have been discharged to nearly zero
voltage. If this happens, call your Quantum Rehab Provider for assistance.
