10 Battery Charging
To charge the wheelchair batteries connect the charger plug into the battery charging
socket on the VR2. You will not be able to drive the wheelchair when the charger is
connected.
To connect the charger plug, ensure the single pin is at the bottom, as shown in the
following illustration, then offer the charger plug to the VR2 in a horizontal orientation.
The molded guide on the VR2 will help you to locate the plug. Ensure the plug is
pushed fully in position.
Do not exceed the maximum charging current of 12 Arms.
Always use an off-board charger fitted with a Neutrik
NC3MX plug. Failure to observe these conditions could result
in poor contact resistance in the charger connector resulting
in overheating of the charger plugs. This presents a potential
burn hazard for the user. PGDT accepts no liability for
losses of any kind arising from failure to comply with this
condition.
Ensure that the charger plug pins are of the correct polarity
to be compatible with the pin polarity shown on the control
systems specific data sheet. Failure to observe this condition
could result in a burn hazard or fire hazard. PGDT accepts
no liability for losses of any kind arising from failure to
comply with this condition.
Do not disconnect batteries or open-circuit the circuit breaker
while charging is in progress. Failure to observe this
