Do you have a question about the AVIVA Storm RX and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
How can I tell how much charge is left on the wheelchair battery?
You can check the battery charge level on an Invacare AVIVA Storm RX wheelchair using the battery indicator on the control system (joystick). If the battery level is low, the indicator will flash, especially after charging or during use. If the battery indicator flashes too soon after charging, the batteries may be weak or malfunctioning.
