IV. THE JAZZY 1113
The Power Base Assembly
The power base assembly consists of the right and left frame assemblies, the front and back battery boxes, and the
electronics tray. See figures 1b, 2, and 3.
Ammeter: The ammeter displays the chargers current output in amps. See IX. Batteries and Charging.
Onboard Charger AC Power Cord Receptacle: This is where the AC power cord plugs into the onboard
charger. The AC power cord plugs into a standard wall outlet.
Charger Fuse(s): The charger fuse protects the ammeter from overload during charging. The charger fuse is
located under the electronics tray. A spare fuse is included.
Main Circuit Breaker: The main circuit breaker is a safety feature built into your power chair. When the batteries
and the motors are heavily strained (e.g., from excessive loads), the main circuit breaker trips to prevent damage
to the motors and the electronics. If the circuit breaker trips, allow your power chair to rest for approximately
one minute. Then push in the circuit breaker reset button, turn on the controller, and continue normal operation. If
the main circuit breaker trips repeatedly, contact your authorized Pride provider.
Controller Connector: This is where the controller connects to the battery, the motors, and the motor brakes.
The VSI controller connector is shown.
Charger Inhibit Connector (VSI only): The VSI controller is equipped with a charger inhibit. The charger
inhibit enables the onboard battery charger to disable the controller during charging. The charger inhibit connector
is coded with colored dots. The dots are positioned so that you can align the flat side of the male connector with the
flat side of the female connector before making the connection.
CAUTION! Failure to properly align the connectors can result in damage to the controller,
the onboard charger, and the connectors.
