VIII. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
When to See Your Quantum Rehab Specialist for Service
The following symptoms could indicate a serious problem with your power chair. If necessary, contact your Quantum
Rehab Specialist. When calling, have the model number, serial number, nature of the problem, and the error code if
available.
nMotor noise
nFrayed harnesses
nCracked or broken connectors
nUneven wear on any of the tires
nJerky motion
nPulling to one side
nBent or broken wheel assemblies
nDoes not power up
nPowers up, but does not move
Corrective Maintenance
If the battery condition meter does not light up when you turn on the power:
nCheck the harness connections. Make sure they are tight.
nCheck the circuit breaker. Reset it if necessary.
nCheck the battery connections.
If the above conditions prove normal, you can load test the batteries with a battery load tester. These testers are available
at automotive parts stores. Disconnect both batteries before load testing and follow the directions that come with the load
tester. If either one of the batteries fails the load test, replace both of them. If your power chair still does not power up,
contact your Quantum Rehab Specialist.
