Charging Batteries
NEVER attempt to recharge the batteries by attaching cables directly to the battery
terminals.
DO NOT attempt to recharge the batteries and operate the wheelchair at the same time.
DO NOT operate wheelchair with extension cord attached to the AC cable.
DO NOT attempt to recharge the batteries when the wheelchair has been exposed to ANY
type of moisture.
DO NOT attempt to recharge the batteries when the wheelchair is outside.
DO NOT sit in the wheelchair while charging the batteries.
DO NOT attempt to recharge batteries using at the same time BOTH the on-board battery
charger AND an independent battery charger plugged into the joystick charger port.
Doing so will reduce the life of the batteries.
READ and carefully follow the manufacturer’s instructions for each charger (supplied or
purchased). If charging instructions are not supplied, consult a qualified technician for
proper procedures.
After charging batteries, ALWAYS make sure that the battery charger cord is unplugged.
Failure to do this could result in damage to the cord or personal injury to the user or
bystanders.
When using an extension cord, use only a three (3) wire extension cord having at least 16
AWG (American Wire Gauge) wire and the same or higher electrical rating as the device
being connected.
Use of improper extension cord could result in risk of fire and electric shock.
Ensure the pins of the extension cord plug are the same number, size, and shape as those
on the charger.
DO NOT under any circumstances cut or remove the round grounding plug from the
charger AC cable plug or the extension cord plug.
Three (3) prong to two (2) prong adapters should not be used. Use of three (3) prong
adapters can result in improper grounding and present a shock hazard to the user.
Grounding Instructions
DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut or remove the round grounding prong from any
plug used with or for Invacare products. Some devices are equipped with three-prong
(grounding) plugs for protection against possible shock hazards and fire. Where a
two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation
of the customer to contact a qualified electrician and have the two-prong receptacle
replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle in accordance with the
National Electrical Code. If you must use an extension cord, use ONLY a three-wire
extension cord having the same or higher electrical rating as the device being connected.
In addition, Invacare has placed RED/ORANGE warning tags on some equipment. DO
NOT remove these tags.
