When your batteries are fully charged you should have sufficient power to give you all
the mobility required in a day - It is important that you understand how your batteries
and charger work.
BATTERY MAINTENANCE
If the batteries are the dry cell type there is no maintenance required.
CHARGING THE BATTERIES
1. Batteries should be charged when the battery indicator moves into the yellow light
bars in a well ventilated room.
2. DO NOT place the power wheelchair near radiators or open fireplaces while charging.
3. DO NOT smoke or permit open flames in the immediate area.
4. Turn the chair controller power off before charging.
5. It is advisable that the batteries be charged for a minimum of 8 hours or over night to
ensure a full return to the batteries storage capacity. The battery charger is an automatic
current limiting device and will shut off when the batteries are fully charged.
6. Position the Cirrus Plus wheelchair next to a standard wall outlet.
7. Connect the battery charger to a standard wall outlet and switch the charger to the on
position.
8. Switch the power button to the on position.
If your wheelchair is fitted with a "unitary" controller (Fig. 15) (i.e. one that has the
joystick fitted to the controller), then the battery-charging socket will be on the front of
the controller.
