BATTERIES
1. Perform one (1) of the following:
A. WHEELCHAIRS EQUIPPED WITH MCC-MARK IV JOYSTICK - Attach the battery charger connector to
the charger cable/battery harness.
NOTE: The battery charger connector is factory installed on the RIGHT side of the wheelchair. It can be positioned
on either side of the wheelchair for user convenience.
NOTE FOR RECLINERS ONLY: If the wheelchair is a recliner, the battery charger connector as well as the limit
switch, are factory set on the RIGHT side of the wheelchair. However, they can be positioned on either side for user
convenience. The limit switch MUST BE positioned on the same side as the battery charger connector.
B. TORQUE SP EQUIPPED WITH MARK IV RII JOYSTICK- Attach the battery charger connector to the
charger port on the FRONT of the joystick.
2. Plug the charger's AC power cord, or extension, into the grounded 120 VAC wall outlet.
3. Wait until charging is complete.
NOTE: Allow eight (8) hours for normal charging. Larger batteries (greater than 55 ampere-hours) or severely
discharged batteries may require up to sixteen (16) hours to be properly charged and equalized. If charger operates
for sixteen (16) hours and is unable to fully charge the batteries, an internal timer turns the charger off and begins to
fast blink the green light.
NOTE: It is advantageous to recharge frequently rather than only when necessary. In fact, a battery's life is extended
if the charge level is maintained well above a low condition.
NOTE: If the batteries need to be charged more often or take longer to charge than normal, they may need to be
replaced. Contact an Invacare dealer for service.
