C. THERMAL ROLL-BACK
Your chair has a thermal roll back circuit.
This protects the controller from damage
due to overheating. In extreme conditions
(such as repetitive hill climbing) the circuit
will decrease the power to your motors.
This allows the chair to operate at a
reduced speed.When the controller cool,
the chair will return to normal speed.
D. CIRCUIT BREAKERS

Your Quickie V-521 has two styles of
battery box; Single (one circuit breaker)
and Dual (two circuit breakers, one on
each box)
In the unlikely event of a short circuit
or heavy overload, all power to your
chair will be shut off.
To reset your chair,depress the circuit
breaker button(s) on the battery box
lids.A few minutes wait is required
before the circuit breaker(s) will reset.
2. Repeated Shutdown:
If the chair continues to shut down
after resetting,have it serviced by
