    • The chair should always be operated while powered with a standard 240V outlet.
    • ALWAYS ENSURE LEAD IS UNPLUGGED BEFORE MOVING THE CHAIR. THE POWERED DRIVE SYSTEM WILL NOT FUNCTION IF THE POWER CABLE IS PLUGGED IN.
    • There is a battery backup to allow chair operation whilst unplugged. The number of operations per charge will vary according to the loading of the chair.
    • Do not continually run the battery to low charge as this will gradually reduce the battery life.
    • Regular charging of the battery is recommended. 

    Low battery warning

    • There is a line of lights on the main control panel that shows the current battery level. These will change from green (3 lights), to yellow (1 light) and then to orange (1 light). It is advised to charge when it is changing from the yellow to orange light.
    • If the orange light is showing only, or it fades and a beep sound is heard, the chair must be placed on charge immediately.
    • Plug unit into a 240V mains power outlet to recharge battery for a minimum of 6 hours.

    FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL RESULT IN SHORTENING THE BATTERY LIFE.
