EUROPA REMOTE CONTROLLER
The Europa Remote controller system consists of the joystick and the power module. This means that all of the programming is done within the joystick and the power module reacts accordingly. The power module is located underneath the front of the power base. The Europa joystick is typically located at the end of either the right or the left armrest. See figure 35.
JOYSTICK FUNCTIONS
The joystick function is similar for all controller configurations. The joystick controls the direction and speed of the wheelchair. See figure
36.When you move the joystick from the neutral (center) position, the electromagnetic brakes release and allow the wheelchair to move. The further you push the joystick from its neutral position, the faster your Jazzy moves. When you release the joystick and allow it to return to the neutral position, you engage the electromagnetic brakes. This causes the chair to decelerate and come to a complete stop. If your Jazzy 1400 begins to move in an unexpected manner, immediately release the joystick. Unless the joystick is damaged, this action should stop your Jazzy 1400.

WARNING: Do not use the on/off key to stop the chair. This may cause injury.
Battery Condition Meter
The battery condition meter consists of six LEDs arranged in an arc over the battery level indicator icon. From left to right, the first two are red, the second two are orange, and the last two are green. These lights are an accurate indication of your usable battery capacity. If the battery has at least 85% of its rated capacity, all of the LEDs will be on. As the battery voltage drops, the number of LEDs reduces from right to left. When the battery capacity drops to 10% or below, all of the LEDs flash at the rate of one per second.
Magnetic Locking Area
The Europa keypad is equipped with a feature that enables you to “lockout” unauthorised users. For this function, you need the magnetic key supplied with your Jazzy. If you lose this key, contact your authorised provider.
