SLEEP MODE: If the controller is left on and not used for more than ten minutes, the controller will automatically “go to sleep”. This is recognized by a slow intermittent flash of the battery indicator lights. Simply turn the controller off and back on to reset.

Always leave the chair in drive mode. The freewheel option is there only to allow the chair to be pushed manually when the need arises (i.e., to store or push unit out of a tight space). Following the sticker picture put each lever in the direction of the person sitting down driving the chair.
