1 Multi-mode activator
The Multi-mode activator is designed to allow the user to access the chair’s power seating functions
without needing to enter the Joystick Module’s menu.
The MULTI-MODE ACTIVATOR does not allow power seating functions to be activated whilst
driving.
This manual is a supplement to and should be read in conjunction with your Magic Mobility
Power Wheelchair Owner’s Manual
1.1 Operation
The procedure for accessing your chair’s power functions using the MULTI-MODE ACTIVATOR is:
1. Stop driving (but leave Joystick in Drive Mode)
2. Use the MULTI-MODE ACTIVATOR to adjust the power seating functions as required
3. Resume driving
1.2 Program Variety
The MULTI-MODE ACTIVATOR contains a number of application specific programs that can be
selected according to the configuration of the wheelchair and the customer’s requirements.
Retrofitting
If retrofitting a MULTI-MODE ACTIVATOR to an existing chair, programming changes are required.

10 Rain and Water
The MULTI-MODE ACTIVATOR and any associated buttons ARE NOT WATERPROOF. Some
modules are splash proof but may be permanently damaged if water transgresses the rubber seals
(this damage is not covered under warranty). We recommend carrying a plastic bag large enough to
cover the electrical modules and the user’s hand, in case of rain
11 Care and Maintenance
11.1 Control System Care
• Avoid knocking your Multi-mode activator, especially the Joystick.
• When transporting your wheelchair ensure the Switch Box is well protected.
• To prolong the life of the Switch Box, keep exposure to extreme conditions to a minimum. Always
clean your Switch Box if it becomes contaminated with food or drink.
• Use a damp cloth and washing up liquid mixed with water. Do not use abrasive or spirit based
cleaning agents.
11.2 Daily Checks
With the control system switched off, check that the Joystick is not bent or damaged and that it
returns to centre when you release it. If there is a problem do not use your MULTI-MODE
ACTIVATOR and contact your service agent.
11.3 Weekly Checks
Connectors: Check all connectors are secure, properly mated and free from damage.
Cables: Check condition of all cables for damage.
Mounting: Make sure the MULTI-MODE ACTIVATOR and any buttons are securely fixed to your
wheelchair. Do not over tighten any screws.
11.4 Annual Checks
It is highly recommended to service your power chair annually. Take your power chair to your Magic
Mobility Dealer to ensure it is functioning correctly. NOTE the MULTI-MODE ACTIVATOR contains
a battery that should provide up to 10 years of normal service.
