Unpack the Wheelchair

1. Remove the Wheelchair from the Box
   a. cut the packing tape on only one end of the shipping box. b. lay the box on one side (be sure to save it in case you decide to return the unit).
   c. grab the unopened end of the box and lift slowly to slide the wheelchair out.

2. Stand the wheelchair on its rear wheels (see illustration below) and remove the packing materials and the zip ties holding the wheelchair closed.

Unfold The Wheelchair

1. Grasp the handlebar with one hand and pull the seat cushion frame outwards with the other.
2. Pull hard to ensure the lock clicks in place. ②Pull the bottom of the fold button (located between the seat and the batteries) to make sure it is locked in place.

Set the Manual / Electric Mode

When the wheelchair is in manual mode, it can be pushed in much the same fashion asa non-powered wheelchair.

When the wheelchair is in electric mode, the rear (drive) wheels are locked and the chair will not move except as directed through the joystick/controller.

For safety reasons, it is imperative that the chair be in electric mode while perform Ming setup/maintenance procedures.

To switch between manual and electric modes, use the toe of your shoe to:

1. push DOWN on the red switch on the motor to put the chair in electric mode; or
2. lift UP on the red switch to put the chair in manual mode.

Note that the switches must be set separately and that they must each be in the same position, that is, both must be up or both must be down.

Attach the Controller

1. Attach the controller to the right or left armrest frame according to your preference. Note that, if you choose to mount the unit on the left armrest, you will have to reroute the power cable accordingly
2. Joystick
3. Control panel
4. Plum nut
5. Locking Lever
6. Tighten the plum nut until the controller remains in place (do not over tighten), then press the locking lever into place. If the controller can still swing easily, loosen the locking lever and tighten the plummet some more. Press the locking lever back into place.

Connect the Battery

Although the battery can be connected while sitting in its rack, doing scan be aw ward and even difficult due to the positioning of the battery under the seat, the stiffness of the connecting cable, and the one-way-only fit of the the cable plugin to the battery socket (there’s a groove on the plug that has to slide over a flang either socket). Thus, we recommend removing the battery from its rack as follows:

a. Hold down the locking catch to disengage the battery from the frame, then pull out the battery (either battery can be connected, but just one at a time).

b. Stand the battery on the end opposite of the connection ports (see illustration below) and insert the power plug into the power port. Be sure to align the grove on the power port with the flange in the power port.

c. Tighten the screw cap on the power plug to make the connection secure.

d. Slide the battery back into its rack. Be sure the locking catch is secured.

Did you notice that the other battery is just sitting there in its rack doing nothing?
That ’sactually an advantage. Since the chair runs on only one battery at a time, the “spare” can either
be charging off-line, or sit in its rack waiting to be used when the active battery runs down.

Disconnecting the active battery is easy without having to remove it from its rack. Simply loosen the screw cap on the power plug and gently pull the plug out of the socket.

Charge the Battery

There are two ways to charge the battery (but only one at a time):

1. Directly through the charging port on the battery itself; or
2. “Indirectly” through the charging port located on the underside of the joystick/controller.

Whether charging directly or indirectly:
a) Connect the electrical end of the charging unit to an appropriate wall socket.
b) Note that there is only one way to insert the charging plug into the charging port: the three pins in the charging plug must be aligned

with the three sockets in the charging port.
c) Note also that the LED light on the charging unit will glow amber while the battery is charging and then green when the charging is complete. When charging through the controller unit:
a) The power must be on.
b) The chair must be in the electric mode.
c) Only the battery currently connected to the controller will be charged.

When charging a battery directly: be sure to reinsert the cover on the charging port to keep the port free of dirt or moisture.

The wheelchair is now ready for use, but we suggest reading the next informational sections before moving onto“ Operating the Wheelchair”

Adjusting The Handle Bar

The handle bar is used primarily to push the wheelchair when in manual mode.

1. Loosen the two screws on the back of the seat.
2. Pull up the handle bar to your desired height

Tighten the two screws.

Lifting The Armrests

Easier access to the chair can be achieved by raising either armrest to permit access from the side as well as the front. To lift the armrest, press the button on the underside and gently push upwards until it reaches its full vertical setting..

Adjusting The Anti-tip Wheels

a. Pull the loop on the locking pin outwards.
b. Align the hole to set the desired extension of the anti-tip wheels.
c. Ensure that the loop and pin are securely seated in the new hole.

Removing The Seat Cushion

The seat cushion is held in place by Velcro strips. It can be removed easily by grasping the front edge of the cushion and pulling upwards firmly.

Folding the Wheelchair

If you had previously raised the handlebar, you should return it to its
lowest position before folding the wheelchair, then raise the footrest. Also, if you set the wheelchair in manual mode, it will be easier to move it when folded, but you have to remember to put it back in electric mode after unfolding it.

1. With the toe of your shoe, press the fold button to unlock the wheelchair.
2. Hold the handlebar with one hand and the seat cushion frame with the other. Use both hands to force the wheelchair parts together until it is completely folded.

If you have folded the wheelchair for temporary storage (for example, overnight storage in your hotel room or home), then you can now wheel it toits parking spot. If, however, you have are preparing the chair for transport or for long-term storage, you will want to loosen the locking lever on the controller unit, then gently push the unit down towards the center of the chair. This will help protect the controller from damage and make it easier to transport or store the chair.

Now Let’s Go for a Ride

Proper operation of the wheelchair is a function of the joystick/controller unit. There areal of the unit is the joystick itself. The front half houses the control panel, the display sand buttons used for information and control.

1. Power display
2. On/off button
3. Horn button
4. Speed range indicator
5. Button to increase speed range
6. Button to decrease speed range

① The power display shows the current charge level of the active battery. There are five lights: red–amber–amber–green–green. Each light indicates a remaining charge level of approximately 20%. Thus, if all five lights are illuminated, the battery has a remaining charge level of approximately 80-100% and is considered fully charged. ② If no lights are on in the power display, press the on/off button to turn on the power. If the power display is lit, pressing the button will turn off the power. When the power is turned on, the various status lights will illuminate to indicate their current settings. The power button should always be off before you get on or off the seat. Caution: if, when you turn on the power, the status lights blink and you hear a continuous series of three beeps, the chair is telling you that it is in manual mode. To correct this, turn off the power, reset the motor switches to electric mode, then turn the power back on. ③ The Horn button is used to attract the attention of people in front of you. ④ The number of lights illuminated in the speed range display indicates the current speed range of the wheelchair. If just one light is on, the chair is set for the lowest speed range; if all five lights are on, the chair is set for the highest speed range. Actual speed within each range is determined by how much pressure is applied to the joystick. More pressure means more speed with in the indicated range. The range selected should be appropriate for the environment in which the chair is operating (for example, use the lowest range when going downhill). ⑤ and ⑥ The speed change buttons are used to increase or decrease the speed range. The buttons are active only when the wheelchair is at a standstill and power is on. Thus, be sure to check the current speed range BEFORE using the joystick.

Forward, reverse, and stop operations

Caution: Failure to follow the instructions below may result in serious personal injury or damage to the electric wheelchair

Simply push the joystick gently in the direction you wish to move. Do NOT pushthejoystick all the way to the end immediately. Do it gradually. The further you push the joystick, the faster the chair will move in that direction. Maximumspeedinanydirection depends on the speed range selected. Turns should be made at as lower
speed.

When moving in reverse, a beeping signal will sound to alert people in the vicinity. Note that, whenever possible, it is preferable to make a 180 degree turn (rather tangoing in reverse) so that you can better see where you are going and what might bein your way.

To STOP movement in any direction, simply let go of the joystick; it will atom aticallyreturn to its neutral center position and the motors will disengage. Note that, depending on how fast you were moving, your momentum may carry you anextrafewinches. This is especially true when going downhill.

CAUTION

Should either of the following situations occur, immediately turn off the wheelchair’s power supply.

a. Movement other than that expected from the current operation. (For example, moving backwards when the joystick is pushed forward.)
b. Brake failure

Let the chair rest for a minute or two, then turn the power back on, set the speed range at the lowest level, and gently move the joystick. If the wheelchair does not perform as expected, turn off the power supply and contact customer service. (Note that the wheelchair can still be used in manual mode.)

Hints and Techniques for Safer Operation

Practice–Practice–Practice.
Before venturing into any roads or public areas, find an open area such as a park, empty parking lot, or your driveway, and invite a friend to accompany you in case you need help until you mastered operations. We advise you to keep a slow speed until you are familiar with handling this wheelchair.

• Be aware that the weight carried will affect operation:
• More weight means more inertia; thus, the wheelchair will take a few second slinger to begin moving from a standstill.
• More weight means more momentum; thus, the wheelchair will move a fawn chess more when coming to a stop.
• More weight means more drain on the batteries; thus, you may have to charge the batteries more frequently

Some Do’s and Don’ts’s
