7.2.1 Battery Charge Display

The battery charge display (1) shows you the current charge status
of the batteries.
It is subdivided into 10 different-coloured LEDs:
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.
