Grounding Instructions
DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut or remove the round grounding prong from any plug used with or for Invacare products. Some devices are equipped with three‐prong (grounding) plugs for protection against possible shock hazards. Where a two‐prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to contact a qualified electrician and have the two‐prong receptacle replaced with a properly grounded three‐prong wall receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code. If you must use an extension cord, use only a three‐wire extension cord having the same or higher electrical rating as the device being connected. In addition, Invacare has placed RED/ORANGE WARNING TAGS on some equipment. DO NOT remove these tags.
Batteries
The warranty and performance specifications contained in this manual are based on the deep cycle gel cell batteries. Invacare strongly recommends their use as the power source for this unit.
Carefully read battery/battery charger information prior to installing, servicing or operating your wheelchair.
Charging Batteries
NEVER attempt to recharge the batteries by attaching cables directly to the battery terminals.
DO NOT attempt to recharge the batteries and operate the wheelchair at the same time.
DO NOT operate wheelchair with extension cord attached to the AC cable.
DO NOT attempt to recharge the batteries when the wheelchair has been exposed to any type of moisture.
DO NOT attempt to recharge the batteries when the wheelchair is outside.
DO NOT sit in the wheelchair while charging the batteries.
READ and CAREFULLY follow the manufacturer’s instructions for each charger (supplied or purchased). If charging instructions are not supplied, consult a qualified technician for proper procedures.
After charging batteries, ALWAYS make sure that the battery charger cord is unplugged. Failure to do this could result in damage to the cord or personal injury to the user or bystanders.
Use of improper extension cord could result in risk of fire and electric shock.
When using an extension cord, use only a three (3) wire extension cord having at least 16 AWG (American Wire Gauge) wire and the same or higher electrical rating as the device being connected. Use of improper extension cord could result in risk of fire and electric shock.
