Never put your power chair in freewheel mode when it is on a slope or incline of any type.

Never put your power chair in freewheel mode while you are operating your power chair.

THERMAL ROLLBACK

Your Compassis equipped with a safety system. A microprocessor monitors the operating temperatures of the controller. In the event of excessive heat occurring in the controller, the controller will decrease the speed of your chair. This is done to reduce the load on the electrical system and allow the components to dissipate heat. The controller will automatically set the chair’s speed back to full normal when the operating temperature returns to normal levels.

THE MAIN CIRCUIT BREAKER

The main circuit breaker is another safety feature incorporated into your Compass. This device monitors the amount of current being drawn from the batteries when the chair is in use. When the motors are heavily strained and too high a current draw is being placed on the batteries, the main circuit breaker will trip and bring your chair to a stop.
