Speed and Actuator Adjustments
The Remote Plus joystick controller is equipped with a mode key and a speed indicator. See figure 39. The mode
key allows you to access different wheelchair functions. Activating the mode key allows you to adjust the maxi-
mum wheelchair speed. To increase or decrease the overall speed, activate the mode key once. Pushing the
joystick to the right will increase the speed setting. Pushing the joystick to the left will decrease the speed setting.
The speed indicator LEDs will light up from left to right. When one LED is lit, the speed is in the slowest setting.
When all five LEDs are lit, the speed is in the fastest setting. After selecting your desired speed, activate the mode
key again to return to drive or simply activate the joystick in the forward or reverse direction and your Jazzy will
operate at the selected speed setting.
NOTE: We recommend that the first few times you operate your Jazzy you turn the speed and response
adjustment knob to the slowest setting until you to become familiar with your new powered wheelchair.
If your Jazzy is equipped with power seat functions, you can access seat control by pressing the mode key twice.
Push the joystick to the right to toggle to your desired seat function. The LED will light in various positions
indicating which seat function is active. When the LED is lit in the appropriate section, push the joystick forward to
raise the actuator and pull the joystick in reverse to lower the actuator. To return to drive, activate the mode key again.
SLEEP MODE
Your Remote Plus controller has a sleep mode feature. Sleep mode is a built-in circuit that automatically shuts off
the main power if the joystick is not moved in any direction for approximately five minutes. The battery condition
lights on the joystick indicate sleep mode by blinking once every five seconds. To restore power and continue,
push the on/off key twice.
THERMAL ROLLBACK
Jazzy controllers are equipped with a thermal rollback circuit. This circuit monitors the temperature of the motors
and the controller. In the event that the motors or the controller become excessively hot (above 122° F), the
controller reduces the motor voltage. For every degree above 122° F, the controller reduces the voltage by 5 volts.
This reduces your Jazzy’s speed and allows the electrical components to cool down. When the temperature returns
to a safe level, your Jazzy resumes its normal speed.
TROUBLE CODES
In addition to indicating the current state of battery charge, the battery condition meter can also indicate possible
problems with your Jazzy. The battery condition meter has ten individual bars. The bars provide information by the
number of bars that are flashing. If the meter is flashing rapidly, the controller may be indicating a fault. For instance,
the very first red bar flashing rapidly indicates the battery voltage is nearly depleted. The following is a list of the
possible errors signified by the rapidly flashing meter lights.
