BWhen charging is completed, the yellow LED will turn green.

BTurn the charger switch OFF when the batteries are fully charged.

BUnplug the charger power cord from the wall outlet

BDisconnect the other end of the charger power cord from the charging socket.

Note:

BMake sure to unplug the charger from the wall outlet and chair after charging. Leaving the charger connected to the chair but unplugged from the wall outlet will slowly discharge the batteries.

BAlways charge your batteries in well ventilated areas.

BThe charger is intended for indoor use only. Protect from moisture.

BFor maximum performance, it is recommended that you replace both batteries at the same time if the batteries are weak.

BIf the chair will not be used for a long period of time, arrange to have the batteries fully charged for at least once every month.

According to the battery type and condition of the batteries, batteries usually can be fully charged in 4-10 hours. This will be indicated when the status light in the battery charger side panel turns green. Charging the battery longer than necessary will not harm the battery. We recommend that you charge the batteries for 8 to 10 hours after daily use. Do not charge the batteries for more than 24 hours.
