Charger Power Cord Receptacle
The charger power cord plugs into the onboard battery charger by means of the charger power cord receptacle.
Ammeter
During charging, the ammeter indicates the charging rate, or how hard the charger is working to charge the Sundancer’s batteries. See VI. “Batteries and Charging.”
Main Circuit Breaker (Reset Button)
When the voltage in your Sundancer’s batteries becomes low or the scooter is heavily strained because of exces- sive loads or steep inclines, the main circuit breaker may trip to protect the motor and electronics from damage. See figure 6.
νThe main circuit breaker reset button pops out when the breaker trips.
νWhen the breaker trips, the entire electrical system of your scooter shuts down.
νAllow a minute or two for the electronics to “rest.”
νPush in the reset button to reset the main circuit breaker.
νIf the main circuit breaker trips frequently, you may need to charge your batteries more often. You may also need to have your authorized Pride Provider perform a load test on your batteries.
νIf the main circuit breaker trips repeatedly, see your authorized Pride Provider for service.
Manual Freewheel Lever
Whenever you need or want to push your scooter for short distances, you can put it in freewheel mode.
νThe manual freewheel lever is located on the end of the motor/transaxle assembly at the right rear of the scooter. See figure 6.
