9.1 Battery Charging
To charge the wheelchair batteries:
• Connect the charger plug into the battery charger socket on
the R-net JSM.
• You will not be able to drive the wheelchair when the charger
is connected.
• To connect the charger plug, ensure the single pin is at the
bottom, as shown in Fig 9.0, then offer the charger plug to
the R-net in a horizontal orientation.
• The molded guide on the R-net will help you to locate the
plug. Ensure the plug is pushed fully in position.
WARNING:
• Do not exceed the maximum charging current of 12A-rms.
Always use an off-board charger fitted with a Neutrik NC3MX
plug. Failure to observe these conditions could result in
poor contact resistance in the charger connector resulting
in overheating of the charger plug. This presents a potential
burn hazard for the user. Sunrise Medical accepts no liability
for losses of any kind arising from failure to comply with this
condition.
• Do not disconnect batteries or open-circuit the circuit
breaker while charging is in progress. Failure to observe this
condition could result in a burns hazard or fire hazard.
• Sunrise Medical accepts no liability for losses of any kind
arising from failure to comply with this condition.
