    Operation Your power chair is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions such as dry, level surfaces com- posed of concrete, blacktop, or asphalt. However, Pride recognises that there may be times when you will encounter other types of surfaces. For this reason, your power chair can also drive on packed soil, grass, and gravel. Feel free to use your power chair safely on dry lawns and in park areas as well.

  • Page 20: Vsi Controller

    VSI Controller The electronic controller is what you use to operate your power chair. It takes the battery voltage and sends it to the appropriate system. The electronic con- troller enables you to move the power chair, as well as monitor battery charge, electronic controller func- tions, and the condition of your electrical system.
  • Page 21 Red lights only lit or slow flash: Charge battery as soon as pos- sible; VSI and electrical system OK. Rapid flash of lights: Indicates a fault in the VSI or the electrical system. Refer to “VSI Error Codes.” Ripple up and down of lights: The joystick was not in the neutral position when the controller was turned on.
  • Page 22 THERMAL ROLLBACK The VSI controller is equipped with a thermal rollback circuit. The circuit monitors the temperature of the controller, which roughly translates to motor temperature. In the event that the VSI controller becomes excessively hot (above 140° F), motor current (amperage) is reduced.
