VII. OPERATION
Battery Condition Meter
The battery condition meter is located in front of the joystick. This is a 10-segment illuminated display that indicates
that the Remote Plus is powered on and also gives the status of the battery, the controller, and the power chair
electrical system.
! Red, yellow, and green lights lit: Batteries charged; controller and electrical system OK.
! Red and yellow lights lit: Charge batteries if possible; controller and electrical system OK.
! Red lights only lit or slow flash: Charge batteries as soon as possible; controller and electrical system OK.
! Rapid flash of lights: Indicates a fault in the controller or the electrical system.
! Ripple up and down of lights: The joystick was not in the center position when the controller was turned on.
If you get “ripple up and down of lights,” turn off the controller, allow the joystick to return to the neutral
position, then turn on the controller.
NOTE: If you still get ripple up and down of lights, contact your authorized Pride Provider.
NOTE: When the batteries approach a discharged state, the first red light will begin to slowly flash,
reminding you the batteries need to be charged immediately!
Speed Settings
The Remote Plus speed settings range from 1 to 5. Typically, the slowest speed setting is 1 and the fastest speed
setting is 5. The settings are indicated by the number of lights that are lit.
NOTE: The speed settings are preset at the factory. If your authorized Pride Provider changes the order
of these settings, please make note of these changes. Contact your authorized Pride Provider for more
information.
To select a speed setting:
1. Press the on/off key to power on the remote.
2. Press the mode key once.
3. To increase chair speed, push the joystick to the right. Each time you push the joystick, you will increase the
speed setting.
4. To decrease chair speed, push the joystick to the left. Each time you push the joystick, you decrease the speed
setting.
5. Once you select the desired speed setting, press the mode key once to keep the setting or push the joystick in
the forward or reverse direction. The chair will resume operation at the selected speed.
NOTE: We recommend that the first few times you operate your power chair, you have your speed on
the slowest setting until you become familiar with your new power chair.
Power Accessories
If your power chair is equipped with power accessories such as a power seat or power elevating leg rests, you can
operate them through the remote keypad. Contact your authorized Pride Provider for information on how to
operate these accessories.
