Short- cutting a pavement corner can cause the back wheel to go off the pavement, causing problems, if the corner is very rough. Avoid this at all times by steering an exaggerated curve around the obstacle. 6. When steering in a tight spot, such as entering a doorway or when turning around, stop the scooter and then turn the handlebar to where you want to go, then apply power gently. This will make the scooter turn tightly. It is also recommended that the pre-set speed is set to a slower setting to aid control in tight spots.
DANGer!
Reversing requires extra attention as the field of vision is restricted.
Note: Using the right thumb or left fingers to operate the Wig-Wag will reverse the scooter. The horn will sound to alert that you are reversing the scooter.
DANGer!
It is advisable that during the first few sessions of operating your scooter that the area around you is clear of obstacles and pedestrians. Before operating your scooter, ensure the seat height has been adjusted to your satisfaction, and the tiller angle has been set for optimum safety and comfort.

DANGer!
· When using your scooter on public walkways and footpaths, always be aware of pedestrians and situations which might require extra care.
· Be especially vigilant around young children and pets.
· Remember, when driving in public places drive with caution and regard for others at all times.
· When manoeuvring in confined areas, including shops, ensure the minimum speed is selected.
· If you leave your scooter unattended, ensure that it does not obstruct pedestrians or other road users.
· Remember to keep the key with you at all times for your safety and security.
· For the safety of the operator and other pedestrians, Sunrise Medical recommends that while driving on footpaths and other pedestrian walkways, the scooter preset speed should be set to less than 4 mph/6 kph.
7.6 brAKING:
To stop the scooter simply release the Wig-Wag, while keeping your hands on the handlebar. Two types of braking will automatically operate in sequence:
· Automatic regenerative braking, which slows the scooter to a standstill.
· Automatic parking brake which will operate as the scooter comes to a stop. The automatic parking break holds the scooter in position, even if you are on a hill.
Note: This is a two stage process and is not instantaneous. First the scooter slows down and stops, then the parking brake comes on. When starting off again the parking brake will release automatically. If the throttle is momentarily engaged and released, the parking brake will release and then engage again in approximately 1/2 a wheel turn.

Fortress S-Series 29

7.7 SecoNDAry PArKING brAKe
(FIG.7.5). Your scooter is fitted with a secondary parking brake. If the free- wheel position is engaged the secondary parking brake can be operated by pulling the hand brake lever, (A), on the left hand side of the tiller. This engages the secondary brake on the rear wheels to prevent unintentional movement while in free-wheel mode, (drive disengaged). Before attempting to push the scooter in free-wheel mode, release the secondary parking brake by pulling back the small thumb lever, (B).
DANGer!
· After completing any maneuvers in free-wheel mode, always re-engage drive mode by moving the freewheel lever to the drive position.
· Do not use the secondary parking brake to slow the scooter down during the normal driving process.
7.8 eMerGeNcy brAKING – Key SWItcH
In the unlikely event of an unwanted movement of the scooter, turning the key switch OFF will cause the scooter to a come to an immediate stop. Though very effective, emergency braking is extremely abrupt and must never be used in normal use.
7.9 SWItcHING oFF
The scooter must always be switched off at the ON/OFF key switch.

WArNING!
Only use the charger supplied with your scooter to charge the batteries fitted to your scooter.

9.2 electrIcAl FUSeS:
To prevent the scooter from becoming overloaded, fuses been built into the battery looms. The fuses automatically isolate the battery from the scooter wiring and control systems in the event of an electrical short circuit. If you suspect that the fuses have blown, contact your Sunrise Medical authorized dealer as soon as possible, who will carry out a full diagnostic to determine the cause of the original fault.
WArNING!
· Do not attempt to change the fuses yourself. · Do not attempt to by-pass the fuse as this would
be very dangerous. If you suspect a fault, contact your Sunrise Medical authorized dealer as soon as possible.
9.3 bAtterIeS
For all warnings and the detailed removal process please refer to Section 5.3 Batteries.
9.4 GeNerAl bAttery INForMAtIoN
The design of batteries used in mobility products is significantly different to the batteries used to start a car for example. Car batteries are designed to release a large amount of power over a short period of time, while mobility batteries (commonly called deep cycle batteries) release their power evenly, over a long period of time. Commonly two 12 volt batteries are used together in a mobility product, giving a total voltage of 24 volts. The size of the battery (e.g. its available power) is expressed in amps per hour e.g. 75 Ah. The higher the number, the bigger the battery size, weight and, potentially, the greater the distance you can travel. Sunrise Medical only fit as standard sealed maintenancefree mobility batteries into these types of scooters.

32 Fortress S-Series

9.5 MAINteNANce-Free bAtterIeS:
The batteries that are recommended for use with your scooter are Gel or AGM type batteries where the electrolyte is held in Absorbed Glass Matt and sealed in the battery case. As the name implies no maintenance is required other than regular charging. These are similar to “gel” type batteries. For air transport please ensure the batteries are IATA approved.
9.6 bAttery cAre:
Over the years, battery technology has moved forward but, unfortunately, some of the advice given on battery care has not. This has resulted in a number of confused and at times contradictory instructions on the `best’ way to care for your batteries. This section will help to dispel some of these myths and legends. Below is set out a battery care plan for maintenancefree batteries. This has been agreed between Sunrise Medical and the battery manufacturers, to enable you to get the best out of your batteries. If a different care plan is followed, this may result in lower than expected performance from your mobility vehicle.
9.7 MAINteNANce-Free bAttery cAre PlAN:
Only use an approved Sunrise Medical charger compatible with the vehicle to be charged.
· With normal daily use, your batteries should be charged every night, regardless of the amount of use your mobility device has had during the day.
· If you use your scooter only occasionally (once per week or less), the batteries must be fully charged at least once per week. The batteries should be fully charged the night before you plan to use your scooter.
· Do not interrupt the charging cycle. · If your mobility device is not required for use, it should
remain connected to the charger until required. This will not damage your batteries, as long as the mains socket/plug is left switched on. Turning the mains socket/plug off, but leaving the mains cable plugged in will eventually deplete your battery charge. · Do not top up the charge of your batteries during the day. Wait until the evening for a full overnight charge. · As a general rule, maintenance-free batteries take longer to fully charge than wet lead acid batteries. · Charge the batteries for at least 8 hours to ensure a full charge.

· The battery terminals need to be checked regularly for signs of corrosion. If any corrosion is apparent, then clean the terminals completely (a wire brush is ideal) and re-grease the terminal using Vaseline petroleum jelly, not ordinary grease. Ensure that the terminal nut and bolt, cable clip and exposed cable are completely covered with jelly.
· Following all the points above should result in a healthier battery, greater range for the vehicle user and a longer life for your batteries.
· Spent batteries may be returned to your Sunrise Medical Dealer or your local recycling depot equipped to dispose of batteries.
9.8 GeNerAl cHArGer INForMAtIoN:
The external charger has been designed to charge two 12 V Gel or AGM type batteries connected in series (= 24 V).
9.9 cHArGer SPecIFIcAtIoN:
WArNING!
Only use cyclic chargers designed for mobility batteries, Gel or AGM type, with a maximum output not exceeding 24V/10A.
