Overload protection
L
The electricity generated when travelling downhill (when the drive motors act as dynamos) is
directed into the accumulators. If you have fully recharged your electric wheelchair before starting
the downhill stretch the safety system switches to emergency stop in order to prevent damage to
the electrical system (control, electronics, etc.).
L
If the overload protection feature is activated (triggered) then this will be indicated by a slow braking
of the electric wheelchair until it stops moving.
21.5.1
Resetting the overload protection:
>
Switch on an electrical device, such as your lighting. The excess electric power will then be quickly con-
sumed.
>
The electric wheelchair is now ready for use once more.
