BATTERIES AND CHARGING

Your power chair uses two long-lasting, 12-volt, deep-cycle batteries. These batteries are sealed and maintenance free. Since they are sealed, there is no need to check the electrolyte (fluid) level. Deep-cycle batteries are designed to handle a longer and deeper discharge. Though they are similar in appearance to automotive batteries, they are not interchangeable. Automotive batteries are not designed to handle a long, deep discharge, and also are unsafe for use in power chairs.

WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.

Charging the Batteries

The battery charger is essential in providing long life for your power chair’s batteries. It is designed to optimize your power chair’s performance by charging the batteries safely, quickly, and easily. The standard battery charger is the onboard charger. The onboard charging system consists of the charger, the ammeter, the AC power cord, and the charger fuse. These components are all located on or in the front battery box. See figure 5. The ammeter indicates the rate of charge necessary to fully recharge the batteries. It is also a good indication of whether or not the charger is working. The ammeter and the charger are only functional when the charger power cord is plugged into a wall outlet using the AC power cord. The charger fuse protects the ammeter from overload during charging. For battery replacement instructions, see IX. “Care and Maintenance.”

WARNING! You must recharge your power chair’s batteries with the supplied onboard or the optional off-board charging system. Do not use an automotive-type battery charger.

WARNING! Never use an extension cord to plug in your battery charger. Plug the charger directly into a properly wired standard wall outlet.

To charge the batteries using the onboard charger:

1.Position the rear of your power chair close to a standard wall outlet.

2.Be certain the controller power is turned off and the freewheel levers are in the engaged position. See IV. “The Jazzy 1133.”

3.Extend the charger AC power cord and plug it into the wall outlet. If your power chair uses a separate AC power cord, plug it into the onboard AC power cord receptacle first. Your power incorporates an inhibit function that disables the power chair when the charger is plugged into a wall outlet. This should be indicated on the controller. See VIII. “Operation.”

4.Wait about a minute for the charger to warm up and check the ammeter. The ammeter indicates how much charge is needed to fully charge the batteries. The ammeter may move as high as 5.5 amps, then gradually move back down to 0 amps as the batteries charge.

5.We recommend you charge the batteries for 8 to 14 hours. As the batteries charge, the ammeter needle slowly drops to 0. When the batteries are fully charged, the needle vibrates on or about the 0 mark on the ammeter.

6.When your power chair’s batteries are fully charged, wind up the charger AC power cord using the hook and loop strap and place the cord back into the power chair’s electronics tray. If your AC power cord plugs into the onboard AC power cord receptacle as well, then roll it up and store it in a safe place.
