Charging Using an Independent Charger Plugged Into the Joystick

WARNING
READ and CAREFULLY follow the individual instructions for each charger (supplied
or purchased). If charging instructions are not supplied, consult a qualified
technician for proper procedures.
DO NOT attempt to recharge the batteries using BOTH the on-board battery
charger AND an independent battery charger (plugged into the joystick charger
port) at the SAME time. Doing so will reduce the life of the batteries.
CAUTION

wheelchair model.

Otherwise, damage may occur.
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 15.7.

charger. The independent charger is NOT supplied with the wheelchair.
