7.2.1Battery Charge Display
The battery charge display (1) shows you the current charge status Battery Charge Display of the batteries.
It is subdivided into 10
2 x red, 4 x yellow and 4 x green.
The decreasing battery charge, and thus the Powerchair's decreasing travelling range, is indicated by the individual diodes going out.
Meaning of the Display:
•All diodes illuminated: full travelling range = batteries fully charged
•Only the red diodes illuminated: Diminished travelling range = charge batteries at end of trip
•Both of the red diodes flash: very low travelling range = charge batteries as soon as possible
•Only one red diode flashes: Battery reserve = charge batteries
immediately!
The travelling range on battery reserve is very low. After a certain travelling time, the electronics will switch off the drive automatically and bring the Powerchair to a standstill = full discharge protection.
