VIII. BATTERY CHARGING
You must use only the charger that is supplied with your Alante
DX/LT™. The use of any other charger on this power chair will void the warranty. Using
unauthorized chargers may also result in severe damage to the batteries and/or damage to
the chair. Using the wrong charger may also be a hazard.
OPERATIONAL RANGE
Depending on the use, the terrain, and the driving conditions, the batteries will provide
up to 8 miles of operation on your Alante DX™, or 6.6 miles on your Alante LT™.
We recommend that you charge the batteries when necessary. Battery charging
should be treated similarly to fuel in a car. You would not go on a long trip with low fuel
or fill up when almost full.
CHARGING THE BATTERIES
Your Alante DX/LT’s charging system is designed for your safety and for your
convenience.
Follow the steps below to recharge the batteries.
1. Position your Alante DX/LT ™ close to a standard wall electrical outlet.
2. Turn off the power on the joystick.
3. Insert the matching charger plug into the joystick’s charging socket that is located at
the front of the joystick. See Figures 31 and 32.
4. Insert the plug at the other end of the charger power cord into a standard electrical
wall outlet. (Power to the charger indicated by a red LED).
5. Disconnect the charger power cord from the wall outlet and from the joystick
charging socket when the batteries are fully charged.
NOTE: The batteries should be fully charged in eight hours. A full charge is
indicated, when the charge LED turns green and all 10 joystick LEDs are lit when the
joystick is turned on.
