CHARGING
The diodes integrated in the steering indicate to what extent the battery capacity has been consumed.
The moment when only red diodes are lighted, you should immediately recharge the electric
wheelchair. If you still drive on, the last diode will blink continuously to indicate that the battery is
running down. If you still ignore this warning signal, then an electronic error code indicates that the
battery cannot drive the wheelchair any more. The batteries should obviously be recharged before this
error message appears. Kindly take note of the operating instructions supplied with the charger.
When the three-pronged plug of the charger is plugged into the socket provided for that purpose, the
functions of the driving unit are blocked automatically. The electronics of your wheelchair should be
switched on during the charging process. The charger automatically regulates the charging process. It
signals the end of the charging process by means of the green diode.
It is a basic requirement that the charging cycle should not be interrupted once it has started. It should
be allowed to run to completion. The charger signals the end of the charging process by means of a
green diode. The batteries should be used until the red diodes signal the necessity of recharging. If
you do not charge the batteries as described above, their capacity is reduced. It might result in a
reduced travelling range and loss of power (it can no longer cope with ramps and obstructions).
If you intend not to use the electric wheelchair for an extended period, it should still be charged from
time to time as indicated by the driving electronics to keep the wheelchair in a running condition.
Note that when recharging too soon, the gel batteries eventually lose their capacity
irretrievably.
If the batteries are not used for an extended period, they slowly discharge themselves (fully
discharged). Then they cannot be recharged by the accompanying charger. Even when the
batteries are not in use, they should be recharged every 5 to 8 weeks at the latest as indicated
by the red diodes in the steering unit.
The manufacturer does not accept liability for damage to batteries caused by wrong charging
methods.
CHANGING THE TYRES
The following advice is given for changing the tyres or the inner tubes:
When removing a tyre allow all the air to escape from the inner tube. Then insert a tyre lever between
the tyre and the rim and slowly and carefully press the lever down. In this way the tyre is pulled over
the edge of the rim. If you then move the lever along the rim, the tyre will pop out from the rim. Now
the tyre and then the inner tube can easily be removed from the rim.
The inner tube must contain no more air.
Improper handling might damage the rim. These activities should preferably be carried out by
a specialist shop.
Note the following before inserting the new inner tube:
Inspect the bed of the rim and the inside wall of the tyre and remove all foreign objects by cleaning
thoroughly. Check the condition of the bed of the rim, especially around the air valve. Kindly use only
original spare parts. No warranty is valid for damage caused by the use of spare parts supplied by
other manufacturers. Kindly contact your specialist dealer.
