FAULT FINDING CHECK LIST

the joystick is engaged, switch the power off, wait a few seconds,
then switch on again. Wait for two seconds before engaging the
joystick.
Problem: The controller lamp flashes slowly while driving.
Action: The slow flashing means that the battery charge level is low and
should be placed on charge as soon as possible.
Problem: The controller lamp flashes continuously and the chair will not
operate.
Action: The continuous flashing of the lamp means there may be a major
problem. Switch the power off, disengage the wheel clutches and
seek assistance. Contact your Dealer and advise of the problem.
Problem: The red light on the battery charger fails to illuminate when the
power is connected to it.
Action: Check that all the leads have been properly connected and the main
power is turned on. If this doesn't cause the red light on the charger
to illuminate, turn the main power off, disconnect the lead from the
main to the battery charger. Contact your Dealer and advise of the
problem.
Problem: The chair is difficult to steer.
Action: First, check the tires are in proper positions. Second, check to see if
both the clutches are engaged correctly.
Note :
If you detect that there are problems with the motors, the battery charger, the
controller or damage to the power wheelchair frame, it is recommended that you
contact the nearest Authorized Service Agent.
If you notice any other irregular aspect of your chair or if it fails to respond after
making some of the above inspections, phone your nearest Authorized Service
Agent. They will advise if the power wheelchair should be returned for repairs. If
the chair is to be returned, they will advise on the availability of replacement units,
and the required method of packing and shipping.
