WARNING! Never use an extension cord to plug in your battery charger. Plug the charger directly
into a properly wired standard wall outlet.
To charge the batteries using the onboard charger:
1. Position the rear of your Jazzy close to a standard wall outlet.

4. Extend the charger power cord and plug it into the wall outlet. The Jazzy incorporates an inhibit function that
disables the powered wheelchair 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s 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.
