II. SAFETY

SAFETY

MANDA T OR Y! Do not operate your new pow er chair for the first time without completely reading
and understanding this owner’s manual.

Y our power chair is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement device designed to increase mobility . Pride provides an extensive
variety of products to best fit the individual needs of the power chair user. Please be aware that the final selection and
purchasing decision regarding the type of power chair to be used is the responsibility of the power chair user, who is
capable of making such a decision, and his/her healthcare professional (i.e., medical doctor, physical therapist, etc.).

The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility device expert has properly fitted the power chair
to the user and has assisted the prescribing healthcare professional and/or the authorized Pride Provider in the instruction
process for the use of the product.

There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the power chair user will need to practice operating
the power chair in the presence of a trained attendant. A trained attendant can be defined as a family member or care
professional specially trained in assisting a power chair user in various daily living activities.

As you begin using your power chair during daily activities, you will probably encounter situations in which you will need
some practice. Simply take your time and you will soon be in full and confident control as you maneuver through doorways,
on and off of elevators, up and down ramps, and over moderate terrain.

Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will help the user become accustomed to operating
the power chair safely .

Modifications

Pride has designed and engineered your power chair to provide maximum mobility and utility. A wide range of accessories
is available from your authorized Pride Provider to further customize your power chair to better suit your needs and/or
preferences. However, under no circumstances should you modify , add, remove, or disable any feature, part, or function
of your power chair.

WARNING! Do not modify your power chair in any way not authorized by Pride. Unauthorized
modifications may result in personal injury and/or damage to your power chair .

Pre-Ride Safety Check

Get to know the feel of your power chair and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety check before
each use to make sure your power chair operates smoothly and safely .

Perform the following inspections prior to using your power chair:

! Check for proper tire inflation. Maintain but do not exceed 35 psi (2.4 bar) in each tire (if equipped with pneumatic tires).
! Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not corroded.
! Check all controller connections to the power base. Make sure they are secured properly .
! Check the brakes. See VIII. “Care and Maintenance.”
! Check battery charge. See VI. “Batteries and Charging.”

NOTE: If you discover a problem, contact your authorized Pride Provider for assistance.

II. SAFETY

Weight Limitations

Y our power chair is rated for a maximum weight capacity . Please refer to the specifications table for this limit.

WARNING! Exceeding the weight capacity voids your warranty and may result in personal injury
and/or damage to your power chair . Pride will not be held responsible for injuries and/or property
damage resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.

WARNING! Do not carr y passengers on your power chair. Carr ying passengers on your power
chair may result in personal injury and/or property damage.

Tire Inflation

If your power chair is equipped with pneumatic tires, you should check or have the air pressure checked regularly . Proper
inflation pressures will prolong the life of your tires and help ensure the smooth operation of your power chair.

WARNING! It is important that 35 psi (2.4 bar) tire pressure be maintained in pneumatic tires at all
times. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires. Low pressure may result in loss of control, and
overinflated tires may burst. Failure to maintain 35 psi (2.4 bar) tire pressure in pneumatic tires at
all times may result in tire and/or wheel failure, causing serious personal injury and/or damage to
your power chair .

WARNING! Inflate your power chair drive tires from a regulated air source with an available pressure
gauge. Inflating your tires from an unregulated air source could overinflate them, resulting in a
burst tire and/or personal injury.

Incline Information

More and more buildings have ramps with specified degrees of inclination, designed for easy and safe access. Some ramps
may have turning switchbacks (180-degree turns) that require you to have good cornering skills on your power chair.

! Proceed with extreme caution as you approach the downgrade of a ramp or other incline.
! Take wide swings with your power chair’ s front wheels around any tight corners. If you do that, the power chair’s rear

wheels will follow a wide arc, not cut the corner short, and not bump into or get hung up on any railing corners.

! When driving down a ramp, keep the power chair’s speed adjustment set to the slowest speed setting to ensure a

safely controlled descent. See VII. “Operation.”

! A void sudden stops and starts.

When climbing an incline, try to keep your power chair moving. If you must stop, start up again slowly and then accelerate
cautiously . When driving down an incline, set your power chair to the slowest speed setting and drive in the forward
direction only . If your power chair starts to move down the incline faster than you anticipated or desired, allow it to come
to a complete stop by releasing the joystick, then push the joystick forward slightly to ensure a safely controlled descent.

WARNING! When climbing an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle up the face of the incline.
Drive your power chair straight up the incline. This greatly reduces the possibility of a tip or a fall.
Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating an incline.

WARNING! You should not travel up or down a potentially hazardous incline (i.e., areas covered
with snow, ice, cut grass, or wet leaves).

WARNING! When on any sor t of an incline or decline, never place the power chair in freewheel
mode while seated on it or standing next to it. Doing so may result in personal injury and/or
damage to your power chair .

WARNING! Never trav el down an incline backward. This may result in personal injury.

Jazzy 1 107 www.pridemobility.com 9

II. SAFETY

WARNING! Even though your power chair is capable of climbing slopes greater than those illustrated in
figure 1, do not, under any circumstances, exceed the incline guidelines or any other specifications pre­sented in this manual. Doing so could cause instability in your power chair , resulting in personal injury and/
or damage to your power chair.

In compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, all handicap public access ramps are required to have a
maximum slope of 5° (8.7%). Therefore, Pride recommends that the maximum slope of an incline you attempt to safely
ascend or descend on your power chair does not exceed 5° (8.7%). See figure 1.

WARNING! Any attempt to climb or descend a slope steeper than 5° (8.7%) may put your power
chair in an unstable position and cause it to tip, resulting in personal injury .

5 (8.7%)

Figure 1. Maximum Safe Slope (Ascending and Descending)

Braking Information

Y our power chair is equipped with two powerful brake systems:

! Regenerative — uses electricity to rapidly slow the vehicle when the joystick returns to the center/stop position.
! Disc Park Brake — activates mechanically after regenerative braking slows the vehicle to near stop, or when power is

removed from the system for any reason.

Cornering Information

While your power chair is equipped with rear caster wheels and front anti-tip wheels, excessively high cornering speeds
can still create the possibility of tipping. Factors which affect the possibility of tipping include, but are not limited to:
cornering speed, steering angle (how sharply you are turning), uneven road surfaces, inclined road surfaces, riding from an
area of low traction to an area of high traction (such as passing from a grassy area to a paved area – especially at high
speed while turning), and abrupt directional changes. High cornering speeds are not recommended. If you feel that you
may tip over in a corner, reduce your speed and steering angle (i.e., lessen the sharpness of the turn) to prevent your
power chair from tipping.

WARNING! When cornering sharply, reduce your speed. This greatly reduces the possibility of a
tip or fall. T o avoid personal injury and/or property damage, always exercise common sense when
cornering.

Outdoor Driving Surfaces

Y our power chair is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry , level surfaces composed
of concrete, blacktop, or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes that there will be times when you will encounter other surface
types. For this reason, your power chair is designed to perform admirably on packed soil, grass, and gravel. Feel free to
use your power chair safely on lawns and in park areas.

! Reduce your power chair’s speed when driving on uneven terrain and/or soft surfaces.
! A void tall grass that can entangle the running gear .
! A void loosely packed gravel and sand.
! If you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid that surface.

II. SAFETY

Freewheel Mode

Y our power chair is equipped with a manual freewheel system to allow for manual maneuverability by a trained attendant. For
more information about how to place your power chair into and out of freewheel mode, see III. “Y our Power Chair.”

WARNING! Do not use your power chair in freewheel mode without an attendant present. Personal
injury may result.

WARNING! Do not attempt to personally place your power chair in freewheel mode while seated
on it. Personal injury may result. Ask an attendant for assistance if necessary.

WARNING! Do not place your power chair in freewheel mode while on an incline. The chair could
roll uncontrollably on its own, causing personal injury.

Stationary Obstacles (Steps, Curbs, etc.)

Proceed with extreme caution when driving near raised surfaces, unprotected ledges and/or drop-offs (curbs, porches,
stairs, etc.). The correct method for approaching a curb is illustrated in figure 2.

WARNING! Do not attempt to have your power chair climb or descend an obstacle that is higher
than 2 inches unless you have the assistance of an attendant.

WARNING! Do not attempt to have your power chair proceed backward down any step, curb, or
other obstacle. This may cause the power chair to tip and cause personal injury .

II. SAFETY

Transfers

Transferring onto and off of your power chair requires a good sense
of balance. Always have an attendant or healthcare professional
present while learning to properly transfer yourself.

T o eliminate the possibility of injury, Pride recommends that you
or a trained attendant perform the following tasks before attempt­ing a transfer:

! T urn off the power to the controller See VII. “Operation.”
! Ensure your power chair is not in freewheel mode. See III.

“Y our Power Chair.”

! T urn both caster wheels toward the transfer destination to

improve power chair stability during transfer.

! Make sure both armrests are flipped up or removed from

your power chair.

! Flip up the foot platform or move the leg rests aside; this will

help to keep your feet from getting caught on the foot rigging
during the transfer .

! Reduce the distance between your power chair andthe ob-

ject you are transferring onto.

WARNING! Before transferring, position yourself
as far back as possible in the power chair seat
to prevent the power chair from tipping forward
during transfer and causing injury.

Figure 4. Ideal T ransfer P osition

WARNING! Avoid using your armrests for weight bearing purposes. Such use may cause the power
chair to tip and cause personal injury .

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the foot riggings. Such use may cause the power chair
to tip and cause personal injury .

Elevators

Modern elevators have a door edge safety mechanism that, when pushed, reopens the elevator door(s).
! If you are in the doorway of an elevator when the door(s) begin to close, push on the rubber door edge or allow the

rubber door edge to contact the power chair and the door will reopen.

! Use care that pocketbooks, packages, or power chair accessories do not become caught in elevator doors.

Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference (EMI/RFI)

WARNING! Laboratory tests have shown that electromagnetic and radio frequency waves can
have an adverse affect on the performance of electrically-powered mobility vehicles.

Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference can come from sources such as cellular phones, mobile two-way
radios (such as walkie-talkies), radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, wireless computer links,
microwave signals, paging transmitters, and medium-range mobile transceivers used by emergency vehicles. In some
cases, these waves can cause unintended movement or damage to the control system. Every electrically-powered mobility
vehicle has an immunity (or resistance) to EMI. The higher the immunity level, the greater the protection against EMI. This
product has been tested and has passed at an immunity level of 20 V/m.

WARNING! Be aware that cell phones, two-way radios, laptops, and other types of radio transmitters
may cause unintended movement of your electrically-powered mobility vehicle due to EMI.
Exercise caution when using any of these items while operating your mobility vehicle and avoid
coming into close proximity of radio and TV stations.

WARNING! The addition of accessories or components to the electrically-powered mobility vehicle
can increase the susceptibility of the vehicle to EMI. Do not modify your power chair in any way
not authorized by Pride.

WARNING! The electrically-powered mobility vehicle itself can disturb the performance of other
electrical devices located nearby, such as alarm systems.

NOTE: For further information on EMI/RFI, go to the Resource Center on www.pridemobility.com. If unin­tended motion or brake release occurs, turn your power chair off as soon as it is safe to do so. Call Pride at 800­424-8205 to report the incident.

IV. ASSEMBLY/DISASSEMBLY

Seat Installation

It may be necessary to install the seat either prior to initial
operation or after transporting your power chair. Most seats
are attached to the power base with the Universal Mounting
System (UMS). The UMS consists of universal parts that
may be attached to any medium-back or high-back seat,
regardless of seat width or seat depth. The two main
components are aluminum extrusions mounted to the seat
base. These extrusions attach to a set of trapeze bars that
are mounted to the power base (see figure 12).

WARNING! Do not pick up the seat frame
by the armrests. They are free to pivot,
and you may lose control of the seat if
they do so, resulting in personal injury
or damage to the chair.

NOTE: Prior to initial installation, the rear seat in­terface needs to be installed to the seat base.

only . If you plan on using your power chair on rough sur­faces, it may be necessary to adjust the anti-tip wheels to
better suit your needs. The anti-tip wheels may need ad­justment if the following occurs:
! When coming to a stop, your power chair tips forward

excessively .

! The anti-tip wheels constantly rub the ground.

WARNING! Consult your authorized Pride Provider before attempting to change the anti-tip wheel
height! Changing the anti-tip wheel height affects handling under acceleration!

WARNING! The higher you raise the anti-tip wheels, the more you increase your power chair’s
tendency to tilt forward while decelerating. Y ou can compensate f or this by having your authorized

VI. BATTERIES AND CHARGING

BA TTERIES AND CHARGING

Y our Pride Power Chair uses two long-lasting, 12-volt, deep-cycle batteries. These batteries are sealed and maintenance
free. Since they are sealed, there is no need to check the electrolyte (fluid) level. Deep-cycle batteries are designed to handle
a longer and deeper discharge. Though they are similar in appearance to automotive batteries, they are not interchangeable.
Automotive batteries are not designed to handle a long, deep discharge, and also are unsafe for use in power chairs.

WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds.
Wash hands after handling.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Do not use batteries that exceed the
recommended type and amp-hour capacity. Do not use ba tteries with different amp-hour capacities.
Refer to specifications table in this manual and in the manual supplied with the battery charger
for recommended type and capacities.

Charging the Batteries

The battery charger is essential in providing long life for your power chair batteries. It is designed to optimize your power
chair’s performance by charging the batteries safely , quickly , and easily.

PROHIBITED! Removal of gr ounding prong can cr eate electrical hazard. If necessar y, properly
install an approved 3-pronged adapter to an electrical outlet having 2-pronged plug access. Failure
to heed could result in personal injury and/or property damage.

PROHIBITED! Never use an e xtension cord to plug in your battery charger. Plug the c harger directly
into a properly wired standard electrical outlet.

WARNING! You must recharge your power chair’s ba tteries with the supplied charger . Do not use
an automotive-type battery charger .

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Read the battery charging instr uctions in
this manual and in the manual supplied with the battery charger before charging the batteries.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Do not expose the off-board battery charger
to rain or other sources of moisture unless it has been tested for outdoor use. Refer to the manual
supplied with the battery charger for more information.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Explosive gases may be generated while
charging the batteries. Keep the po wer chair and ba ttery charger away from sources of ignition
such as flames or sparks and provide adequate ventilation when charging the batteries.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Inspect the battery charge r, wiring, and
connectors for damage before each use. Contact your authorized Pride Provider if damage is
found.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Do not attempt to open the battery charger
case. If the batter y charger does not appear to be working cor rectly, contact your authorized
Pride Provider .

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! If the off-board battery charger is equipped
with cooling slots, then do not attempt to insert objects through these slots.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! Do not allow unsupervised children to play
near the power chair while the batteries are charging.

WARNING! Prevent injury and/or equipment damage! If your off-board battery charger has not
been tested and approved for outdoor use, then do not expose it to adverse or extreme weather
conditions. If the battery charger is exposed to adverse or extreme weather conditions, then it
must be allowed to adjust to the difference in environmental conditions before use indoors. Refer
to the manual supplied with the battery charger for more information.

30 www.pridemobility .com Jazzy 1107

VI. BATTERIES AND CHARGING

T o charge the batteries using the off-board charger:

1. Position your power chair next to a standard electrical
outlet.

2. Be certain the controller power is turned off.

3. Plug the off-board charger into the off-board charger/
programming socket on the controller. See VII. “Opera­tion.”

4. Plug the off-board charger into the electrical outlet.

NOTE: If it is a Pride off-board charger , then there are
two lights in it. The red light indicates that power to
the off-board charger is on. The green light indicates
that the batteries are fully charged. If it is not a Pride
off-board charger, then follow the instructions supplied
by the manufacturer.

5. When the batteries are fully charged, unplug the off-board
charger from the electrical outlet and then from the controller.

Figure 27. Battery Bo xes (Removed fr om Power Base)

OFF-BOARD CHARGER PORT

NOTE: You can remove both battery boxes from the power base and charge them using the off-board charger port
located on the front battery box. The battery boxes must be connected in order to charge them. See figure 27.

Battery Break-in

T o break in new batteries for maximum efficiency:

1. Fully recharge any new battery prior to its initial use. This brings the battery up to about 90% of its peak performance level.

2. Operate your power chair throughout the house and yard. Move slowly at first, and do not travel too far until you become
accustomed to the controls and break in the batteries.

3. Give the batteries another full charge of 8 to 14 hours and operate your power chair again. The batteries will now perform at over
90% of their potential.

4. After four or five charging cycles, the batteries will top off at 100% charge and last for an extended period.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How does the charger work?

The battery charger takes the standard wall outlet voltage (alternating current) and converts it to 24 VDC (direct current).
The power chair batteries use direct current to run your power chair. When the battery voltage is low , the char ger works
harder to charge the battery . As the battery voltage approaches full char ge, the charger doesn’t work as hard to complete
the charging cycle. When the battery is fully charged, the amperage from the charger is nearly at zero. This is how the
charger maintains a charge but does not overcharge the battery .

Can I use a different battery charger?

Y ou should use the charger supplied with the power chair . It is the safest, most efficient tool to charge the batteries. W e do
not recommend using other types of chargers (e.g., an automotive battery charger).

NOTE: Your power chair’s charger will not operate after the batteries have been discharged to nearly zero
voltage. If this happens, call your authorized Pride Provider for assistance.

Jazzy 1 107 www.pridemobility.com 31

VI. BATTERIES AND CHARGING

How often must I charge the batteries?

Many factors come into play when deciding how often to charge the batteries. Y ou may use your power chair all day on a
daily basis or you may not use it for weeks at a time.

! Daily Use

If you use your power chair on a daily basis, charge the batteries as soon as you are finished using your power chair .
Y our power chair will be ready each morning to give you a full day’ s service. It is recommended that you charge the
batteries 8 to 14 hours after daily use.

! Infrequent Use

If you use your power chair infrequently (once a week or less), you should charge the batteries at least once per week
for 12 to 14 hours.

NOTE: Keep your batteries fully charged and avoid deeply discharging your batteries. Do not charge the
batteries for more than 24 hours at a charging cycle.

How can I get maximum range or distance per charge?

Rarely do you have an ideal driving situation such as smooth, flat, hard terrain with no wind, hills, or curves. More often you
are presented with hills, sidewalk cracks, uneven and loosely packed surfaces, curves, and wind. All of these factors will
affect the distance or running time per battery charge. Below are a few suggestions for obtaining the maximum range per
charge:

! Always charge the batteries fully prior to your trip.
! Plan your trip in advance to avoid inclines if possible.
! Limit baggage weight to essential items.
! Try to maintain an even speed and avoid stop-and-go driving.

What type of batteries should I use?

W e recommend deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. Both AGM and Gel-Cell are deep-cycle
batteries that are similar in performance. Refer to the specifications table for more battery information.

WARNING! Corr osive chemicals contained in batteries. Use only AGM or Gel-Cell batteries to
reduce the risk of leakage or explosive conditions.

Why do my new batteries seem weak?

Deep-cycle batteries employ a much different chemical technology than that used in car batteries, nickel-cadmium (nicads),
or in other common battery types. Deep-cycle batteries are specifically designed to provide power, drain down their
charge, and then accept a relatively quick recharge. AGM and Gel-Cell batteries should be charged as often as possible.
They do not have a “memory” like nickel-cadmium batteries.

W e work closely with our battery manufacturer to provide a battery that best suits your power chair’s specific demands.
Fresh batteries arrive regularly at Pride and are promptly shipped with a full charge. During shipping, the batteries encoun­ter temperature extremes that may influence initial performance. Heat robs the charge from the battery , and cold slows the
power available and extends the time needed to recharge the battery (just as with a car battery).

32 www.pridemobility .com Jazzy 1107

VI. BATTERIES AND CHARGING

It might take a few days for the temperature of the battery to stabilize and adjust to its new ambient temperature. More
importantly, it will take a few “char ging cycles” (a partial drain— then a full recharge) to establish the critical chemical
balance that is essential to the battery’s peak performance and long life. It will be well worth it to take the time to break in
your battery properly .

NOTE: The useful life of a battery is quite often a reflection of the care it receives.

How can I ensure maximum battery life?

A fully charged deep-cycle battery will provide reliable performance and extended battery life. Keep your power chair’ s
batteries fully charged whenever possible. Batteries that are regularly and deeply discharged, infrequently charged, or
stored without a full charge may be permanently damaged, causing unreliable power chair operation and limited battery life.

How should I store my power chair and its batteries?

If you do not use your power chair regularly , we recommend maintaining battery vitality by charging the batteries at least
once per week.

If you do not plan on using your power chair for an extended period, fully charge the batteries prior to storage. Disconnect
the battery harnesses and store the power chair in a warm, dry environment. Avoid temperature extremes, such as freezing
and excessively hot conditions, and never attempt to charge a frozen battery . A cold or frozen battery should be warmed
for several days prior to recharging.

What about public transportation?

AGM and Gel-Cell batteries are designed for application in power chairs and other mobility vehicles. These batteries are
Federal A viation Administration (F AA) approved, allowing safe transportation on aircraft, buses, and trains, as there is no
danger of spillage or leakage. W e suggest you contact the carrier’s ticket counter in advance to determine that carrier’s
specific requirements.

What about shipping?

If you wish to use a freight company to ship your power chair to your final destination, repack your power chair in the
original shipping container and ship the batteries in separate boxes.

FLIGHT CONTROLLER

The electronic controller is what you use to operate your power chair . It takes the battery voltage and sends it to the
appropriate system. The electronic controller enables you to move the power chair , as well as monitor battery charge,
electronic controller functions, and the condition of your electrical system. The FLIGHT is part of a modular electronic
controller system. The system consists of more than one module. T ypically , the FLIGHT is mounted to one of the armrests.
See figure 28. It is connected to a power module located on the power base through the controller communications cable.
The FLIGHT may be used to control some optional systems, such as lights.

The controller supplied with your power chair has been pre-programmed to meet your needs. The program is set using
either a personal computer with software provided by the controller manufacturer or with a hand-held programmer, also
provided by the controller manufacturer.

WARNING! The controller program can affect speed, acceleration, deceleration, and braking. If it
is programmed incorrectly or outside of the safe limits as determined by your healthcare
professional, it can create a dangerous situation. Only the power chair manufacturer, an authorized
representative of the manufacturer, or a trained service technician should program the controller.

The FLIGHT consists of:

1. joystick

2. keypad

3. off-board charger/programming socket

4. controller connector

5. controller power module

Joystick

The joystick controls the direction and speed of your
power chair . When you move the joystick from the
neutral (center) position, the electromagnetic brakes
release and allow your power chair to move. The far­ther you push the joystick from its neutral position, the
faster your power chair moves. When you release the
joystick and allow it to return to the neutral position,
you engage the electromagnetic brakes. This causes
your power chair to decelerate and come to a com­plete stop.

WARNING! If your power chair begins
to move in an unexpected manner,
immediately release the joystick.
Unless the joystick is damaged, this
action should stop your power chair.

Keypad

The keypad is located in front of the joystick. It con­tains keys necessary to operate your power chair . See
figure 29.

VII. OPERATION

VSI ELECTRONIC CONTROLLER

The electronic controller is what you use to operate your power chair. The electronic controller enables you to move the
power chair, as well as monitor battery charge, electronic controller functions, and the condition of your electrical system.
The VSI electronic controller is an integral electronic controller . All of the electronics necessary to operate the power chair
are contained in one module. See figure 30. T ypically , the VSI is mounted to one of the armrests and is connected to the
motors and batteries at the power base.

The controller supplied with your power chair has been pre-programmed to meet your needs. The program is set using
either a personal computer with software provided by the controller manufacturer or with a hand-held programmer, also
provided by the controller manufacturer.

WARNING! The controller program can affect speed, acceleration, deceleration, and braking. If it
is programmed incor rectly or outside of the safe limits as determined by your healthcare
professional, it can create a dangerous situation. Only the power chair manufacturer, an authorized
representative of the manufacturer, or a trained service technician should program the controller.

The VSI consists of:

1. joystick

2. keypad

3. off-board charger/programming socket

4. actuator connector (optional)

5. controller connector

Joystick

The joystick controls the direction and speed of your power
chair. When you move the joystick from the neutral (center)
position, the electromagnetic brakes release and allow your
power chair to move. The farther you push the joystick
from its neutral position, the faster your power chair moves.
When you release the joystick and allow it to return to the
neutral position, you engage the electromagnetic brakes.
This causes your power chair to decelerate and come to a
complete stop.

WARNING! If your power chair begins
to move in an unexpected manner,
immediately release the joystick. Unless
the joystick is damaged, this action
should stop your power chair.

Keypad

The keypad is located in front of the joystick. It contains
keys necessary to operate your power chair. See figure 31.

Jazzy 1 107 www.pridemobility.com 39

VII. OPERATION

WARNING! Failure to properly align the connectors can result in damage to the VSI, the charger,
and the connectors.

Thermal Rollback

The VSI controller is equipped with a thermal rollback circuit. This circuit monitors the temperature of the controller , which
roughly translates to motor temperature. In the event that the VSI controller becomes excessively hot (above 140° F), motor
current (amperage) is reduced. For every degree above 131° F, the motor current limit is reduced by .55 amps . This reduces
your power chair’s “power ,” which could also reduce your power chair’s speed . Once the VSI controller reaches 158° F ,
the current output is reduced to zero and your power chair will stop. This allows the electrical components and motors to cool
down. When the temperature returns to a safe level, your power chair resumes its normal operation.

VSI Error Codes

The VSI controller is designed with the user’s safety as the prime consideration. It incorporates many sophisticated self­test features which search for potential problems at a rate of 100 times per second. If the VSI detects a problem either in
its own circuits or in the power chair’s electrical system, it may stop the power chair, depending on the severity of the
problem. The VSI is designed to maximize the user’s safety under all normal conditions. The table below identifies the
individual error codes. Error codes are displayed as a rapid flashing of the battery condition meter lights. If you get one of
these error codes, contact your authorized Pride Provider.
