    V I . B A T T E R I E S A N D C H A R G I N G BATTERIES AND CHARGING The Quantum Q4 uses two long-lasting, 12-volt, deep-cycle batteries. These batteries are sealed and maintenance free. Since they are sealed, there is no need to check the electrolyte (fluid) level. Deep-cycle batteries are designed to handle a longer and deeper discharge.
  • Page 22 How often must I charge the batteries? Many factors come into play when deciding how often to charge the batteries. You may use your power chair all day on a daily basis or you may not use it for weeks at a time. www.pridemobility.com Quantum Q4...

It will be well worth it to take the time to break in your battery properly. Quantum Q4 www.pridemobility.com...
