4 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Tip

Before turning on the power of your power chair, take note of your environment

and set your speed control accordingly. For indoor driving, we recommend that

you select the lowest speed setting. For outdoor driving, we recommend that

you select a speed setting at which you feel comfortable, safe and in control of

your power chair.

4.1 Joystick

On / off button

Push the on / off button to turn on the power of your power chair, see picture 1. The

10 LEDs will flash once and a number of LEDs will remain depending on the state of

the battery charge. Pressing the on / off button again will turn off the power of your

power chair, the LEDs will not lit.

The speed control buttons

These buttons provide you with a way to control the maximum speed of your power

chair. Push the Slower button repeatedly to set your chair’s speed to the slowest

setting. This is indicated by one lit LED section on the speed indicator scale. Push the

Faster button repeatedly to set your chair’s speed to its highest setting. This is

Picture 1

Joystick

The joystick controls the speed and direction of your power chair. When you are not

pushing on the joystick, or when you release the joystick, the joystick will

automatically return to the neutral position, the chair will decelerate, as the

electromagnetic brakes are applied, and come to a smooth stop.

Pushing the joystick away from the neutral position will move your power chair in the

direction that the joystick is pushed. The farther forward or backward you push the

joystick, the faster your power chair will go.

The joystick display

The joystick display is a multifunctional visual display. This display provides three types

of information:

On / Off status;

Battery charge level;

Fault diagnostics.

Battery charge level

The joystick LED array is composed of 10 LEDs:

Three: Red;

Four: Orange;

Three: Green.

When all 10 LEDs are lit continuously, there is a full charge on the batteries. As you

use your power chair and the batteries discharge, LEDs in the array will begin to turn

off in descending order. A single lit red LED indicates the lowest state of operable

charge on the batteries. The batteries should be charged immediately.

Control system status indication

The joystick LED array is also designed to help you diagnose any problems with the

electrical components of your power chair. The LED array does this by flashing on and

off in a coded sequence. The battery gauge and maximum speed/ profile indicator

show the status of the control system.

Battery gauge is steady

This indicates that all is well.

Battery gauge flashes slowly

The control system is functioning correctly, but you should charge the battery as soon

as possible.

Battery gauge steps up

The wheelchair batteries are being charged. You will not be able to drive the chair until

the charger is disconnected and you have switched the control system off and on

again.
