Releasing the joystick and allowing it to return to the center position will bring the chair to a controlled stop. When you have finished driving, switch off by pressing and releasing the on/off switch.

The fuel gauge on the top surface of the DX-REMG80I will have all 6 lights on, if your batteries are fully charged. As you use up the power by driving, the green lights and then the amber lights will go out. When only the red lights are left on, it is time to re-charge your batteries. The red light will flash as a further reminder.

A socket is provided at the front of the G80I to allow a battery charger to be connected. Follow the instructions for charging your batteries in the wheelchair manual. CAUTION – Only use the charger supplied by the wheelchair manufacturer. If in doubt contact your Wheelchair Services representative.

5) MAINTENANCE

1.The DX System should be regularly checked for integrity. Loose, damaged or corroded connectors or terminals, or damaged cabling should be replaced.

2.All switchable functions on the DX System should be regularly tested to ensure they function correctly.

3.All DX system components should be kept free of dust, dirt and liquids. If necessary wipe with a cloth dampened with warm water or alcohol. Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners.

4.Where any doubt exists, consult your nearest Service Center or Agent.

5.There are no user-serviceable parts in any DX System component - do not attempt to open any case.

Warning: If any DX component is damaged in anyway, or if internal damage may have occurred (for example by being dropped), have it checked by qualified personnel before operating.

6) FAULT DIAGNOSTICS

7) SAFETY AND MISUSE WARNINGS

Do not operate the DX System if it behaves erratically, shows abnormal response, heating, smoke or arcing. Turn the system off at once and consult your Service Agent.

Do not operate your DX System if the battery is nearly flat as a dangerous situation may result due to loss of power in an inopportune place.

Ensure the controller is turned off when not in use.

No connector pins should be touched, as contamination or damage due to electrostatic discharge may result.

Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) influences most electronic equipment. Caution should be exercised with regard to the use of portable communications equipment in the area around such equipment. While the manufacturer has made every effort to ensure that RFI does not cause problems, very strong signals could still cause a problem. If RFI causes erratic behavior, shut the wheelchair off immediately. Leave off while transmission is in progress.

Report any malfunctions immediately to your Service Agent.

PLEASE DO NOT MODIFY THE CONTROL SYSTEM IN ANY WAY. ANY UNAUTHORISED MODIFICATIONS INCLUDING THE FITMENT OF UNAPPROVED SPARES OR ACCESSORIES MAY RENDER THE CONTROL SYSTEM UNSAFE AND WILL INVALIDATE ANY SAFETY/APPROVAL MARKS AND THE WARRANTY. WHEELCHAIR SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES MAY OBTAIN FURTHER INFORMATION ON THE DX SYSTEM FROM DYNAMIC EUROPE LTD.
