Procedure for connecting the
charger and charging
1 The wheelchair can be charged
via one of two charging sockets.
The charger socket most
convenient and often used is
located on the front of the Pilot/
Pilot+ Control Box (Fig. 54A).
The other charger socket is
located on the rear of the battery
boxes (Fig. 54B). The charger
socket on the battery box is
useful should you require to
charge the batteries
independently from the chair, to
do this remove the batteries and
charge in a more convenient
location making sure that the two
batteries are connected together.
2 Connect the charger to the
mains supply by means of the
mains plug and switch on. The
yellow ‘mains on’ indicator
should light up immediately
(Fig. 55), followed shortly
afterwards by the orange
‘charging’ indicator.
3 The battery is fully charged
when the green ‘charge
complete’ light illuminates. if not
needed for use the battery may
be left charging indefinitely
without risk of damage.
4 If the chair is required for use
before the ‘charge complete
light’ shows, then it is possible to
obtain restricted use once the
‘bulk charge’ light has
illuminated.
