The wheelchair batteries are being charged. You will
not be able to drive the wheelchair until the charger is

Self help guide: (Fig.8.1, overleaf).
If a system trip occurs you can find out what has
happened by counting the number of bars on the battery
gauge that are flashing.
Go to the number on the list which matches the number of
flashing bars and follow the instructions.
Slow or sluggish movement:
If the wheelchair does not travel at full speed or does not
respond quickly enough and the battery condition is good,
check the maximum speed setting. If adjusting the speed
setting does not remedy the problem then there may be a
non hazardous fault.
Consult your Sunrise Medical Authorised Dealer.
Speed / Profile Indicator ripples up and down:
This indicates the control system is locked, refer to section
7.1. for details on how to unlock the control system.
Speed / Profile Indicator flashes:
This indicates that the speed of the wheelchair is being
limited for safety reasons. The exact cause will depend on
the build of the wheelchair but usually indicates that the
seat is elevated.
Actuator LED flashes:
This indicates that the actuators may be inhibited in one or
both directions.
