Next, connect the charger cable with the three-pin plug to the loader socket on the electric
wheelchair's operator unit. Once connected to the batteries, the charger automatically begins
charging. Now only the yellow LED is active.
When charging is complete, the yellow LED goes out and the green LED comes on. Now
remove the charger cable from the operator unit. The charger switches back to STAND-BY
mode (yellow and green LEDs active).
If the charger cable is not removed, a tiny current will keep the batteries topped up (trickle
charging).
If you decide not to use your electric wheelchair for an appreciable period, you must
nevertheless recharge it regularly to keep it in a running condition ready for immediate use.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage caused by improper charging.
For further information, please refer to the user instructions provided with the charger.
