USE AND OPERATION

Use

  1. Controller: This is the key component of your personal electric vehicle. All the electronics for operating the chair are housed in this box (Fig. 16). Usually the controller is installed on one of the armrests and connected to the motor and the battery through the power box.

    • Switch button: This switch provides the power to the system that controls the personal electric vehicle’s electronic equipment—the equipment that supplies the power for the chair’s motor. Do not use the switch button to stop the chair unless in an emergency situation. Such misuse may shorten the life of the personal electric vehicle drive components.

    • Joystick: The joystick is used mainly to control the motion of the personal electric vehicle, including its speed and direction (forward, backward, left or right, etc.). The farther you push the joystick from its central position, the faster the personal electric vehicle moves. When you release the joystick, it will automatically return to the center position, and the brake will be automatically activated to stop the personal electric vehicle’s movement.

    • Reversing alarm can be shut off by pressing the buttons of speed-down and horn simultaneously for 3 seconds (Fig. 16). If need to turn it on, press the buttons of speed-up and horn for 3 seconds at the same time, and then the sound will be on.
      WARNING! If your personal electric vehicle moves accidentally, please immediately release the joystick, and the chair will stop automatically.

    • Battery Charger: This can be used with this personal electric vehicle only. Do not use the battery charger to supply power to any other electrical equipment; otherwise, the personal electric vehicle’s control system or its E.M.C. (electromagnetic tolerance) performance may be damaged.
      CAUTION! If you connect any devices other than the supplied battery charger into the socket, causing damage to the control system, then the warranty is invalid.

  2. Battery Charging and Use
    If you will fully charge your new battery prior to its initial use, this first charge will bring the battery up to about 90% of its peak performance level. Operate the personal electric vehicle at that level, checking the battery indicator light periodically, and when a recharge is indicated, give the battery another full charge (for 6-8 hours) and operate the personal electric vehicle again. The battery will now be performing at over 90% of its potential. After four or five such charging cycles, the battery will top off at 100% charge and last for an extended period. Please replace the battery when necessary.
    CAUTION! Do not use your personal electric vehicle when the temperature is less than -77˚F or above 122˚F.Battery specification

    Type| Lithium battery
    Dimension| 6.4in x 5.7in x 1.7in
    Power| 24V

  3. Charging the battery
    The battery charger is an important part of the personal electric vehicle operation. The off-board charger attached to the personal electric vehicle can charge the battery quickly and easily, preventing downtime or stress.
    CAUTION! The battery must be charged only by the manufacturer-supplied charger. Any other types of chargers could cause damage or injury.

  4. Battery Removal
    Press and hold the button and at the same time pull the battery box up to remove it (Fig.17).

  5. There are two methods for charging the battery: Method 1: Connect the charger to the charging port on the controller. Method 2: Remove the battery from the personal electric vehicle and charge it directly (Fig. 18).Journey-Health-Lifestyle-Journey-Air-Elite-Lightweight-Folding-Power-Chair- \(8\)
    WARNING! Please charge the battery at an environment temperature of 0-95˚F. Charging at a lower/higher temperature could cause personal injury and battery damage.

  6. Safety Belt
    For your safety, the safety belt must be fastened before you drive the personal electric vehicle.

Operation

  1. Preparations before operation

  2. Do not turn on the power switch when you’re just using the personal electric vehicle to sit on, not to ride. Do not turn the power switch off as you’re in the process of getting off the chair. Be sure it’s turned off and in a full stop before you attempt to get off.

  3. Fold back the footrests first and then hold the armrest steady to sit on the personal electric vehicle. Do not get off the personal electric vehicle by stepping onto the footrests as that is dangerous and may cause the chair to overturn.

  4. Practice before operation

    • Find a spacious paved area with no traffic and have someone there to assist you as you first practice driving your personal electric vehicle. Practice until you feel confident enough that you can operate it safely and comfortably.
    • Be sure to turn down the power when you go up or down an incline and set an appropriate and comfortable speed using your speed adjustment button.
    • We recommend that you set the electric personal electric vehicle at its lowest speed until you can operate it skillfully.
    • To practice stopping (whether moving forward or backward), just push the handle.
    • First, be sure that the personal electric vehicle is operating at the lowest speed when you practice driving it forward. After you’ve improved your skills, you can practice an “S” turn, meaning that you simply drive the chair through turns in the shape of a “S.” Having mastered that, you can practice moving in reverse—again paying attention to your speed control setting. Your backward speed should always be lower than your forward speed.Journey-Health-Lifestyle-Journey-Air-Elite-Lightweight-Folding-Power-Chair- \(10\)
      WARNING! When getting on and off the personal electric vehicle, be careful to avoid contact with the joystick to prevent setting the chair in motion and causing an accident.
  5. Operation
    Please note these precautions before operating personal electric vehicle:
    WARNING! Do not use your personal electric vehicle when it is in manual mode UNLESS you have someone to assist you; otherwise, personal injury may result.
    Do not put your personal electric vehicle in manual mode and attempt to move it by yourself when you are seated in the chair. Please ask an assistant to help you. Otherwise, personal injury may result.
    Do not put your personal electric vehicle in manual mode when it is located on an incline; otherwise the chair could go out of control and roll down the incline by itself, resulting in personal injury.

Glitch Diagnosis
This product has an automatic malfunction warning to give you a convenient alert that something is amiss. When there is a problem, the LEDs on the controller will flash with a horn alarm. You can find where the problem is located from information on the chart below.

Safety devices and accident response

  2. Safety belt: Refer to instruction manual 6.1.6
  3. Please release the joystick whenever there is a personal electric vehicle problem, and the personal electric vehicle will then stop.

Maintenance

Like other motorized vehicles, your personal electric vehicle requires routine maintenance. Some checks and maintenance you can perform yourself; others will require assistance from your service agent. Preventive maintenance is very important. If you perform the maintenance and checkups in this section, your personal electric vehicle will give you years of trouble-free operation. If you have any questions or doubts about your personal electric vehicle’s care or operation, please contact your service agent or our after-sale service department.

Humidity
Your personal electric vehicle, like most electrical and mechanical equipment, is susceptible to external conditions. In any case, do not expose the personal electric vehicle to a damp environment. Direct or prolonged exposure to water or dampness could cause the personal electric vehicle electronic and mechanical malfunction. Water can expose both the chair’s electrical components and the chair’s frame to corrosion.

Temperature

  • Some parts of your personal electric vehicle are susceptible to temperature extremes.
  • In extremely cold temperatures, the battery can become frozen, including battery components (sealed lead-acid batteries or gel batteries). Extreme temperatures may cause some other components to freeze up, too, such as the charger.
  • Temperature above 131°F may cause a reduction in your personal electric vehicle’s speed.

General Guidelines

  • Avoid abusing the controller, especially the joystick. Treat your personal electric vehicle well, and it will have a long life.
  •  Avoid prolonged exposure of your personal electric vehicle to extreme weather conditions, such as extreme heat, cold or a moist environment.
  • Keep the controller clean and dry.
  • Check all electric connections periodically, including the cable and charger connectors, ensuring that they are all tight and secure.
  • If there are only red LEDs showing on the Battery Gauge lights, then the batteries are close to running out of charge. Recharge the batteries as soon as possible. We recommend charging the battery for 8-12 hours.
  • Check the inflation of the rear tires, and if the inflation seems insufficient, they should be inflated as soon as possible.
  • The frame surface has been sprayed with a clear sealant coating. You can apply a light coat of car wax to help the surface keep a high gloss.
  • Check all your cable connections, ensuring that they are fastened and not corroded. The battery must be contained in the battery area, fully in place and flat, with the battery plug inward.
  • All wheel bearings have been lubricated and sealed. There is no need for further lubrication.
  • Check for loose parts in the wheel hub, drive device and in the chair itself. If anything appears to be loose, please screw it tightly in place as soon as possible.

Maintenance after use

  • Turn off the power when the chair is not in use, and disconnect all the connectors if the personal electric vehicle will not be in use for a long time.
  • Children, people who are drinking, those who suffer from blackouts, and others ineligible to drive a car should also not drive your personal electric vehicle.
  • Store the personal electric vehicle in normal temperatures to prevent damage, so that it will perform at top level for a long time.
  • Clean the personal electric vehicle with a clean, soft, damp cloth and dry it thoroughly. Never use any chemicals to clean it, as discolouration may result.
  • Remove the cloth cover of the seat backrest and wash it when it becomes soiled; then dry it for reuse.

Daily Checks
In order to keep your personal electric vehicle in good condition, you should check it out before each use. To maintain the proper weekly, monthly, and semi-annual checkups, see the chart below.

Cleaning
Clean the personal electric vehicle as below:

  • Never wash your personal electric vehicle with water or expose directly to water.
  • Since the surface of the chair’s frame has been coated with a protective coating, it is very easy to wipe it clean with a damp cloth. Never use any chemicals to clean the vinyl on the seat and armrests, as chemicals may make them slippery and cause them to become rough. Just use a damp cloth and soapy water to clean them, and then them dry thoroughly.

Storage
Your personal electric vehicle should be stored in a dry environment free from sources of extreme temperature and dampness. Remove the battery from the personal electric vehicle prior to storage; otherwise, the frame may rust and the electronics may be damaged.

Opening and Checking
Open the packing box and check to determine whether anything is missing or damaged.
