IX. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and re-
lated accessories contain lead and lead com-
pounds. Wear goggles and gloves when han-
dling batteries and wash hands after handling.
WARNING! Pride Power Chair batteries are
heavy. See specifications table. If you are un-
able to lift that much weight, be sure to get
help. Lifting beyond your capacity can result
in personal injury.
To replace the battery:
1. Turn the power off.
2. Unplug the controller wire harness. See VI. Disassembly.
3. Remove the seat.
4. Remove the body shroud.
5. Ensure the Jet 3 is not in freewheel mode. See IV. The Jet 3.
6. Locate the two wiring harnesses attached to your batteries.
Disconnect these two harnesses from their respective quick
disconnects. See figures 20. A diagram is located on a decal
on the Jet 3 frame near the battery tray.
NOTE: It is easier to connect the harnesses from the batteries
when you have the batteries away from your Jet 3. This gives
you more room to work. See figures 21 and 22.
7. Connect the wire labeled REAR BATTERY (+) to a batterys
positive (red) terminal. Connect the wire labeled REAR
BATTERY (-) to the negative (black) terminal. See figure 23.
Install the battery in the rear of your Jet 3s battery tray with
the battery terminals facing inward, toward the center of the
Jet 3. Plug the wiring harness into a quick disconnect.
8. Connect the wire labeled FRONT BATTERY (+) to the other
batterys positive (red) terminal. Connect the wire labeled
FRONT BATTERY (-) to the negative (black) terminal. See
figure 23. Install the battery in the front of your Jet 3s battery
tray with the batterys terminals facing inward, toward the center
of the Jet 3. Plug the wiring harness into a quick disconnect.
9. Dispose of your old batteries in accordance with local disposal
laws.
