5.10 Battery Indicator
When the power is turned on, the battery indicator will light up with
a possible total of three red, four orange and three green lines
indicating the remaining power of the batteries. Both of the green
light being lit indicates that the batteries are fully charged. If only
the red lines are lit, this indicates that the batteries are (nearly out of
or) out of power.
● It is recommended that you charge the batteries immediately when the
battery indicator shows only three or less red lines.
● After charging or replacing new batteries, drive the wheelchair for 2-3
minutes to make sure the batteries are fully charged before going on a
long journey.
● In wintertime, the batteries may respond slowly and the drive range may
also be reduced. You must store your wheelchair indoors above freezing
temperatures.
● When driving on an incline, the battery indicator light might move up
and down. This is normal.
● Even if the batteries are used properly their capacity will decay over time,
thereby reducing the drive range (maximum distance traveled per full
charge). Thus, when the drive range becomes about 50% of what brand
new batteries would offer, it's time to replace them with new batteries.
Otherwise, the batteries may die unexpectedly leaving you in a possibly
precarious situation.
● The drive range will be shortened when driving frequently on slopes or
uneven ground, as this consumes more battery power.
