Page 203 F5 Corpus Preparing for use WARNING! Risk for overheating, sparks or short-circuit To interrupt the charging process, turn off the power supply at the switch on the charger before removing the charging jack from the wheelchair’s charger socket. This is to avoid sparking and unnecessarily high wear on the charging contact.
Page 204 The main circuit breaker must be set to On to charge the batteries. Make sure the charger connector is fully inserted in the wheelchair’s charger socket.
