G. BRAKE LEVER
65
Disengage the brake lever when you need to manually push the
chair. (For example, in an emergency, or if batteries fail).
A. INTRODUCTION
1. Notes–
• Batteries supply the power for your chair. They contain a
finite amount of energy and have limits on how long they can
store and supply energy.
• You can charge batteries only a certain number of times
before they will fail and no longer hold a charge.
• For answers to questions about batteries, consult your supplier.
2. Use Proper Batteries:
Your chair operates on two 12 volt batteries.
• They should be Group 22 batteries.
• When you buy a replacement, insist on a deep cycle sealed
case type. Do not use a car or boat battery.
3. Breaking In:
• A battery requires "breaking-in" for the first 6 to 12 charges.
It will not accept a full charge for this period.
• It is best to limit the length of your trips until you break the
batteries in and you know the range of your chair.

4. Discharged Batteries:
• Never allow a battery to completely discharge. If you oper-
ate your wheelchair until it has almost stopped, you will
greatly reduce the life of your batteries.
• Never let a battery sit in a discharged condition. Give
unused or stored batteries a full charge once per month.
• Always fully charge the batteries. Avoid "topping off" with
frequent charges.
Never connect a life support or auxiliary device to a wheelchair
battery. The electrical system may fail, and result in severe injury to
or death of the user.
