CHARGING PROCEDURES

IMPORTANT

Before you attempt charging, ensure you read and understand the instruction manual supplied with the Battery Charger.

To Charge Batteries:

Check that the ventilation slots on the charger are clean and unobstructed.

Plug the charger output lead into the socket on the joystick control box. When charging is complete switch off and disconnect from the mains.

If required, the charger can be left connected to the Powerchair and to the mains. This will keep the batteries 100% charged and compensate for self-discharging over a long period. (You cannot overcharge your batteries).

If you experience charging difficulties or require further advice, do not hesitate to contact your local INVACARE supplier/dealer.

Connect the charger power supply cable to the mains socket and switch the power on. The “Mains ON” and the “Charging” lights on the charger will come on.

It is recommended the charger is left connected as described until the “Full Charge” light illuminates to obtain optimum performance of the batteries.

When the “Charge Complete” light illuminates, the batteries are fully charged and ready for use.
