Troubleshooting The Vr2 Hand Control - Quickie Rumba Directions For Use Manual

8.0 Troubleshooting The VR2 Hand Control:

Always consult your Sunrise Medical authorised dealer
when a diagnostic fault has appeared on your hand
control.
The battery gauge and maximum speed/profile indicator
show the status of the control system, (Section 7.0,
Fig.7.1).
Battery Gauge is steady - This indicates that everything
is OK.
Battery Gauge flashes slowly - The control system is
functioning correctly but the batteries need charging as
soon as possible.
Battery Gauge steps up - The wheelchair batteries are
being charged. You will not be able to drive the wheelchair
until the charger is disconnected and you have switched
the control system off and on again.
Battery Gauge flashes rapidly (even with the joystick
released)
The control system safety circuits have operated and
the control system has been prevented from moving the
wheelchair.
This indicates a system trip. i.e. the VR2 has detected a
problem somewhere in the wheelchairs electrical system.
• Switch off the control system.
• Make sure that all connectors on the wheelchair and
the control system are mated securely.
• Check the condition of the battery.
• If you can't find the problem, try the self help guide
given below.
• Switch on the control system again and try to drive
the wheelchair.
• If the safety circuits operate again, switch off and do
not try to use the wheelchair.
• Contact your Sunrise Medical authorised dealer.

Self help guide, (Fig.8.1).
If a system trip occurs you can find out what has happened
by counting the number of bars on the battery gauge that
are flashing.
Go to the number on the list which matches the number of
flashing bars and follow the instructions.
Slow or sluggish movement - If the wheelchair does not
travel at full speed or does not respond quickly enough
and the battery condition is good, check the maximum
speed setting. If adjusting the speed setting does not
remedy the problem then there may be a non hazardous
fault. Consult your Sunrise Medical authorised dealer.
Speed/Profile Indicator ripples up and down - This
indicates the control system is locked, refer to section 7.3
for details on how to unlock the control system.
Speed/Profile Indicator flashes - This indicates that the
speed of the wheelchair is being limited for safety reasons.
The exact cause will depend on the build of the chair but
usually indicates that the seat is elevated.
Actuator LED flashes - This indicates that the actuators
may be inhibited in one or both directions.
