Battery Alarms; Using The Usb Charger - Invacare LINX REM400 User Manual

If the remote is powered up, the battery gauge indicates the
system is connected to the charger by displaying a charge
sequence and then displaying the approximate battery charge
state at the end of the charge sequence.
The LiNX system does not have to powered up when charging
the batteries; however, if it is not powered up, the battery
gauge does not indicate the charging state. For more
information about the charging state, refer to the charger user
manual or the power wheelchair base user manual.
While charging, the wheelchair is in drive inhibit mode. For
more information about drive inhibit mode, refer to 8.3 Drive
Inhibit Indication, page 91.
NEW Batteries Only—The wheelchair power must be
on during charging to ensure accurate battery charge
levels display on the remote. New batteries must be
fully charged. The battery synchronization procedure
MUST be performed within 24 hours of powering on
the wheelchair. The battery synchronization procedure
can be found in the LiNX service manual and must be
performed by a provider or qualified technician.
