Storing your LIBERTY™ 624 MINI POWER WHEELCHAIE
You should store your LIBERTY™ 624 MINI in a dry, temperature controlled environment. Certain

Note: Failure to store the unit as suggested may cause rusting of the frame as well as damage to
the powerchair electronics
Your LIBERTY™ 624 MINI is susceptible to damage from the elements. Try to avoid damp areas
of any kind. Direct exposure to water in any form: rain, sleet or snow could cause the powerchair to
malfunction electronically and mechanically. Water can cause electrical components to corrode and the
frame to prematurely rust. Should your LIBERTY™ 624 MINI come in contact with water act quickly
to take these steps:
1. Dry as much as possible.
2. Allow your LIBERTY™ 624 MINI to sit in a warm, dry place for 12 hours to allow remaining water
to evaporate.
3. Perform all safety and operational tests as indicated on page before use.
4. If any inconsistencies are found, take your LIBERTY™ 624 MINI to an authorized Eagle Parts
service center.
Some of the parts of your LIBERTY™ 624 MINI are susceptible to extreme changes in temperature.
Possible reactions to extreme temperatures may be freezing of your batteries in very temperatures below
18 degrees Fahrenheit. (The specific temperature at which they will freeze depends on a number of
factors such as battery charge, use, and composition of the batteries, e.g. sealed lead acid of gel cell).
– or – reduced operating speed at temperatures above 122 degrees Fahrenheit.
If you are storing your LIBERTY™ 624 MINI for an extended period of time, you may want to block
the unit up off the ground with boards under the frame. This will keep the tires of the ground and
prevent the possibility of flat spots developing.
Thermal Rollback
Your LIBERTY™ 624 MINI is equipped with a thermal rollback circuit. This circuit monitors the
temperature of the motors and controller. In the event the motors or controller become excessively hot
(above 122 degrees Fahrenheit), the controller will reduce the speed of your LIBERTY™ 624 MINI to
about one-half of normal which will allow the components to cool down. When the temperature returns
to a safe level, your LIBERTY™ 624 MINI will resume normal speed.
