Joystick

The joystick controls the speed and direction of wheelchair travel. The further you move the joystick from the rest position, the faster your wheelchair will move. When the joystick is returned to the neutral (center) position or released, the control system will bring the wheelchair to a smooth stop. Upon stop- ping, electromechanical park brakes will engage to prevent the wheelchair from rolling.

Moving the joystick forward (away from the user) causes the wheelchair to move forward. Moving the joystick back (toward the user) causes the wheelchair to travel in reverse. When the joystick is moved right to 3 o'clock position, the wheelchair will turn to the right; when the joystick is moved left to

9 o'clock position, the wheelchair will turn to the left.

Battery charger receptacle (and optional programmer receptacle)

The receptacle for the battery charger (and optional programmer) is located on the underside of the con- troller, as shown above. Use only the battery charger supplied with the wheelchair.

Controller cable

The controller cable plugs into the controller.
