General Troubleshooting

Continual use of your Everest with Captain Seat necessitates maintenance, especially if the factory-set adjustments have been altered. If you are unsure of the solution or unable to diagnose the problem, do not hesitate to ask your Graham-Field Health Products dealer for assistance. Most power drive problems are battery related. As batteries age, their ability to hold a charge decreases. Older batteries discharge much more quickly than new batteries under the same driving conditions. This results in a decrease in the distance the wheelchair can travel before batteries need to be charged. This decrease is often misinter- preted as a problem with the wheelchair system, when in fact the batteries have simply reached the end of their useful lives and should be replaced. Sometimes expensive components are unnecessarily replaced when the batteries are the real problem. If an electrical problem exists, check the following:

Batteries

Make sure the batteries are fully charged. Test battery state-of-charge as described in Section VII, BAT- TERIES, REGULAR BATTERY MAINTENANCE. Keep the posts and terminals clean and tight.

Circuit Breaker

Your Everest with Captain Seat is equipped with a circuit breaker to protect the electrical circuits from overload. It is located in the base end cover (front of wheelchair for rear wheel drive; back of wheelchair for front wheel drive). In the event of an overload, the circuit breaker button will pop out. To reset the circuit breaker, push the button in.

Note: If you experience a problem with your wheelchair and are unable to service it yourself, contact the dealer from whom you purchased the wheelchair. If the dealer is unable to help you, contact Graham-Field Health Products Customer Service Department .

Note: Use only Everest & Jennings® replacement parts. An Everest with Captain Seat parts catalog is available through Graham-Field Health Products dealers (and on the internet, at www.graham- field.com), to assist in the ordering of parts.

sCaution:: A complete inspection of your wheelchair, including maintenance, servicing and safety checks, should be handled by a qualified Graham-Field Health Products dealer at least once a year.

WARNING: Unauthorized modification or the use of non-Everest & Jennings® replace- ment parts could change the structure of the wheelchair, void the warranty, and create a hazardous condition, which could result in serious personal injury..
