IX. BATTERIES AND CHARGING
To charge the batteries using the onboard battery charger:
1. Position the rear of your Jazzy 1104 close to a standard wall outlet.
2. Be certain the controller power is turned off and the freewheel levers are in the engaged position. See
IV. The Jazzy 1104 in this manual.
3. Lift off the rear cover.
4. Extend the charger power cord and plug it into the wall outlet. The Jazzy 1104 incorporates an inhibit
function that disables the power chair when the charger is plugged into a wall outlet.
5. The ammeter indicates how much charge is needed to fully charge the batteries. Wait about a minute for
the charger to warm up. The ammeter may move as high as 5.5 amps, then gradually move back down
to 0 amps as the batteries charge.
6. We recommend you charge the batteries for 8 to 14 hours. As the batteries charge, the ammeter needle
slowly drops to zero. When the batteries are fully charged, the needle vibrates on or near the zero mark
on the ammeter scale.
7. When your Jazzy 1104s batteries are fully charged, you can unplug the power cord from the wall
outlet, wind it up using the hook and loop strap, and place the cord back into the rear tray.
8. Secure the rear cover.
OFF-BOARD CHARGER
If your Jazzy is equipped with an off-board charger, follow these instructions:
1. Position your Jazzy next to a standard wall outlet.
2. Be certain the controller power is turned off.
3. Remove the run plug located on the utility tray. This activates the inhibit function.
4. Plug the 3-pin extension cable into the charger, then into the utility tray connector.
5. Plug the charger into the wall outlet.
6. The ammeter indicates how much charge is needed to fully charge the batteries. Wait about a minute for
the charger to warm up. The ammeter should move all the way up to 5 amps, then gradually move back
down to 0 amps.
7. We recommend you charge the batteries for 8 to 14 hours. As the batteries charge, the ammeter needle
slowly drops to zero. When the batteries are fully charged, the needle vibrates on or near zero on the
ammeter scale.
8. When your Jazzy 1104s batteries are fully charged, disconnect the charger cord from the wall outlet.
9. Disconnect the charger from the rear utility tray.
10. Reconnect the run plug into its connector.
Note
:
If the run plug is not reconnected, your Jazzy will not run.
11. Replace the rear cover.
BATTERY BREAK-IN
To break in new batteries for maximum efficiency:
1. Fully recharge any new battery prior to its initial use. This brings the battery up to about 90% of its peak
performance level.
2. Operate your Jazzy 1104 about the house and yard. Move slowly at first, and dont stray too far until
you become accustomed to the controls and break in the batteries.
