User Information
Intended use power wheel chairs:
Power wheelchairs are exclusively for a user who is unable to walk or has limited mobility, for their own personal use indoors and outdoor. When an Attendant Control Module is fitted, the Power Wheelchair may be operated by an assistant on behalf of the user. When a Dual Control Module is fitted the Power Wheelchair may be operated by the user, or control may be switched to an assistant to operate on behalf of the user.
The maximum weight limit (includes both the user and any weight of accessories fitted to the wheelchair) is marked on the serial number label, which is affixed to the chassis of the chair.
The chair serial number is affixed also to the front page of the owners manual supplied with the wheelchair.
Warranty can only be taken on if the product is used under the specified conditions and for the intended purposes.

• Strokes and brain injuries
• Neurological disabilities (e.g. MS, Parkinson…)
• Illnesses such as heart and circulation deficiencies,
disturbance of equilibrium or cachexia as well as for elderly people who still have the strength in the upper bo dy.
• Persons who are mentally and physically able to control
an input device to operate the chair and its functions in a safe way.
When considering provision, please also note the body size, weight including the distribution of body weight, the user’s physical and psychological constitution, the age of the user, their living conditions and their environment.

4.0 General safety warning and user tips
4.1 General warnings
WARNING!
Always ensure that your wheelchair is switched off before attempting to mount or dismount. Always ensure that you are able to operate all controls from a comfortable position. Paying attention to your posture is essential to ensure your continued comfort and well being. Always make sure that you can be seen clearly, especially if you intend using your wheelchair in poor light. This wheelchair has been built to match the needs of a particular user. If used by another user then it may
need to be adjusted and reprogrammed. Do not let children or others use your wheelchair.
4.2 Features and options NOTE: Some of the options shown in this manual may
not be available in your country and may also restrict the overall physical limits of the standard product (e.g. max. speed, user weight limit, etc.). Those limitations are marked on the order form, in the technical manual and in this owner’s manual. For further information please consult your Sunrise Medical authorised dealer.
4.3 Kerbs
DANGER!
Never descend a kerb Forwards with a RWD chair or Backwards with a FWD and MWD chair. Please read
carefully the section 4.33 on kerb climbing in this
manual before attempting to mount and dismount any kerbs in your wheelchair. Do not attempt to climb or descend a series of steps. It is unsafe to do so and could cause personal
injury or damage the chair. The Jive has only been
designed to climb a single step or kerb. We recommend that users with upper trunk instability wear further customised restraint systems to keep the upright body position during decending or ascending ramps, curbs or obstacles.
4.4 Routine service
The recommended service interval is one year. (See service history table in section 16).
4.5 Emergency freewheel
DANGER!
Please remember that you have no braking facility when the freewheel levers are moved from the normal drive position to the freewheel position (
Fig.
4.1
). Always ensure an attendant is with you when
bringing the chair into the freewheel mode. The wheelchair must never be left with one or both levers in the freewheel position. For an enhanced description of this facility and its limitations to use
please see later section at 5.4.
4.6 EMC - Radio transmitting devices.
WARNING!
When operating two-way radio, walkie-talkies, C.B.,
amateur radio, public mobile radio and other powerful transmitting devices the wheelchair should be brought to a halt and turned off. The operation of cordless, mobile telephones
and cell phones including hands-free devices is
permitted but if abnormal operation of the wheelchair is encountered then the chair must be brought immediately to a halt and turned off.
NOTE: the electrical systems of the wheelchair may disturb the performance of alarm systems in retail shops.
4.7 Emergency braking
There are three ways to stop your wheelchair:
1. Simplest and safest way to stop the wheelchair is to
release the joystick (see Hand Control section 7). This will bring the chair to a halt in a controlled manner.
2. Pulling back the joystick will brake the chair abruptly with
a fast stop
3. Switching the control system off whilst the chair is in motion will also bring the chair to a halt.
WARNING!
This third method is only to be used in an emergency situation as the stopping action is very abrupt.
Fig. 4.1
Quickie Jive 11
4.8 Sharp turns
DANGER!
Full speed turns should not be attempted. If you need to turn sharply you must reduce your speed with the
joystick or speed setting. This is particularly important
when travelling across or down a slope. Disregarding this advice could lead to your wheelchair tipping over.
4.9 Batteries
Your wheelchair is supplied as standard from Sunrise
Medical with maintenance-free batteries. These only
require regular charging. Before charging, please read section 12 in this manual.
WARNING!
Do not, under any circumstances, tamper with the batteries. If in any doubt contact your local Sunrise Medical authorised dealer.
CAUTION!
Before using your vehicle for the very first time, please
charge your batteries for a period of 24 hours.
WARNING!
Avoid contact with acid on damaged sealed type batteries or wet batteries. Battery acid can cause burns to the skin as well as damage to floors, furniture and your wheelchair. If it comes into contact with the skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If it comes into contact with the eye, immediately flood the eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes and seek medical attention immediately. Acid can be neutralised with baking soda and water. Take care to keep batteries upright at all times, especially when transporting your wheelchair.
Battery and charger type:
24V (2x12V) / 73 Ah/20h. Maintenance free Dimensions: 260 x 171 x 210 mm. 24V (2x12V) / 60 Ah/20h. Maintenance free Dimensions: 256 x 169 x 178 mm. Connector: 3 pins “Neutrik” type (polarity scheme in section 17)
4.10 Tyres
Your wheelchair tyres can wear depending on use. Check them regularly in accordance with the service instructions in this manual, especially the pressure of the tyres.
DANGER!
Never inflate the tyres using a garage forecourt airline, always use the pump provided.
4.11 Weight limit
DANGER!
The user plus items carried should never exceed a • total weight of 160Kg or 137Kg if fitted with a kerb climber. This figure rises to 240Kg for the Jive F-XL.
Never use this chair for weight training if the total weight (user plus additional weights) exceed a total
weight of 160Kg or 137Kg if fitted with a kerb climber, (240Kg for the Jive F-XL). Exceeding the weight limit is likely to damage the • seat, frame or fasteners and may cause severe injury
to you or others from chair failure Exceeding the weight limit will void the warranty.
4.12 Wheelchair motors
After prolonged use, the motors will produce heat, which is radiat ed through the motors’ outer casing.
WARNING!
Do not touch the motors’ outer casing for at least 30 minutes after using the wheelchair, to allow it to cool. (Fig. 4.2).
WARNING!
Hot surfaces Not only the motors can get hot during the operation of the chair, but also the upholstery material and armrests when standing in the sun.
Fig. 4.2
12 Quickie Jive
4.13 Wheelchair range
The range of your wheelchair can be affected by many factors such as user weight, terrain, ambient temperature, use of powered op tions and battery condition.
NOTE: The stated range in the sales literature should be
seen as the theoretical maximum (ISO 7176; Part 4) and
may not be attained by every user (also see section 12.8 in this manual).
We recommend that every user initially limit their journey
to half the stated range, until they have confidence in the actual range their wheelchair can attain.
CAUTION!
If your battery indicator is showing a low charge then
do not attempt a long journey unless you are confident
in reaching your destination and also returning to your home without the risk of being left stranded.
4.14 Road use
Please show the utmost consideration for the other traffic on the road.
DANGER!
Remember that the last thing a car or lorry driver expects to see is a wheelchair backing off the kerb into the road. If in any doubt, do not risk crossing the road until you are certain that it is safe. Always cross the road as quickly as possible; there may be other traffic.
4.15 Adverse conditions
Please be aware that when driving your wheelchair in adverse conditions, e.g. on wet grass, mud, ice, snow or other slippery surfaces, you may experience a reduction in the grip and traction of your wheelchair.
WARNING!
We recommend you take extra precautions in these conditions, particularly on hills and slopes; your wheelchair could become unstable or skid causing
possible injury.
NOTE: Extreme variances in temperature may trigger the self protect mechanism in the control system. If this occurs the control system will temporarily shut down to prevent damage to the electronics or the chair.
4.16 Ramps
WARNING!
When using a ramp, please ensure that it is capable of taking the combined weight of the power chair and yourself. If a ramp is being used to load a chair into a vehicle, please ensure the ramp is properly secured to the vehicle.
Always approach the ramp head-on and exercise caution.
CAUTION!
Please ensure your ramp is suitable for the product you are transporting.
4.17 Transfer to and from the chair
WARNING!
Sunrise Medical recommend that you consult your healthcare professional for assistance in developing your personal front or side transfer technique to best suit your
needs and avoid any personal injury.
WARNING!
Ensure controller is switched off during transfers to avoid unintentional movement.
4.18 Lift and tilt modules
WARNING!
Please be aware that the lift and tilt modules present a trap hazard. Make sure that when operating the tilt and lift it is free from all clothing, hands, feet and other
extremities to prevent injury.
Do not drive on ramps or slopes with the seat tilted, reclined or raised. Before attempting to climb or decline a slope, return to an upright position
4.19 Anti tips
CAUTION!
Make sure that anti tips are not damaged or worn before using your chair. Check the anti tips are functioning correctly on a regular basis.
WARNING!
Attendants must be aware of the location of the RWD anti tips to prevent feet being trapped underneath causing
injury Attendants - Do not stand on the anti tips, this could
cause the wheelchair to become unstable.
Quickie Jive 13
4.20 Use on a slope
Your wheelchair has been designed and tested to allow
its use on slopes or gradients of up to 10° (18%) in RWD/
MWD configuration and 6° (11%) in FWD conFiguration.
However, you have the option of adjusting your seating
position with either a lift, tilt or recline or a combination of these options.
WARNING!
In certain circumstances your wheelchair could become unstable. Before attempting to climb or descend a slope or a kerb, caution should be taken when using weight
shift options (e.g. powered tilt or recline), of the seat and/
or your body for a counter balance weight. To improve stability lean forward when driving uphill, with the seat and back in an upright position. Alternatively sit in an upright position when travelling in
a forward, downhill direction or tilt and/or recline the seat
backwards. When driving downhill with a FWD chair reduce your speed below 5kph. This prevents the chair from going
onto the front anti-tip wheels when decelerating.
WARNING!
We strongly recommend that you return the seat and back to an upright lowered position before attempting to climb or descend a slope. Failure to do this may cause the wheelchair to become unstable.
WARNING!
If you are in any doubt about the capabilities of your wheelchair on a slope then do not attempt to drive up or
down the slope/kerb; try to find an alternative route.
4.21 Gradients: ascents
WARNING!
When going uphill, keep the chair moving. • Steer by carefully moving the joystick forwards • making slight Left and Right adjustments as you go.
If you have stopped on a hill, you should start slowly. On a RWD chair, if necessary lean forward to prevent the tendency for the front wheels to lift.
4.22 Gradients: descents
On descents, it is important not to let the wheelchair accelerate beyond its normal level of ground speed.
WARNING!
Proceed slowly down steep descents, (below the speed of 5kph) and stop if any anxiety arises regarding directional control.
If the chair picks up speed, centre the joystick to slow it
or to stop all forward movement, then restart slowly and do not allow the speed to increase.
NOTE: The solid state controller has the benefit of a logic system that will help compensate when driving along a camber or up a hill. This is an added safety feature on your wheelchair. In addition of course, you may control the wheelchair speed by using the speed control.
4.23 Using a vehicle mounted passenger lift
Wheelchair lifts are used in vans, buses and buildings to help you move from one level to another.
DANGER!
Ensure that the user and all carers fully understand the lift manufacturer’s instructions for using the passenger lift. Never exceed the lift manufacturer’s recommended safe working load and load distribution guidance. Always turn off all power when you are on the
lift. If you fail to do so, you may touch the joystick
by accident and cause your chair to drive off the platform. Be aware that a rollstop at the end of the platform may not prevent this. Always position the user securely in the chair to help avoid falls while on the lift. Always ensure the chair is in drive mode when using passenger lift (wheels locked not in freewheel mode).
4.24 Creep mode
WARNING!
Please ensure your backrest recline angle relative to floor level, (which is a combination of the back recline itself and the tilt angle), does not exceed 12° to drive the chair safely.
NOTE: If your wheelchair is fitted with a Lift/Tilt module,
you will go into ‘Creep Mode’ as soon as the seat is lifted.
WARNING!
If you have Recaro seating or a manual recline backrest on your wheelchair, please be aware that there will be no feedback system to the controller that tells it that the seat is in a reclined position. If you recline your backrest and attempt to drive, it will not go into ‘creep mode’, it will instead drive at full speed.
DANGER!
This is especially dangerous when attempting to drive up a slope.
14 Quickie Jive
4.25 Stability of your wheelchair
Please follow the user instructions in this manual regarding the use of seat lift and tilt modules and the use of your chair on a slope.
WARNING!
Other variables can affect your chair stability, including:
Movement of the user Effects of the addition of accessories or other equipment
Inappropriate adjustments or modifications to the
wheelchair
In some cases these issues are further compounded by the effects of the local environment such as:
Hills Slopes Ramps
Sloping/uneven footpaths
Dropped kerbs
Furthermore different body proportions of a wheelchair user affect stability for example:
Lower limb wasting or amputation Increased upper torso mass Upper torso height Obesity
4.26 Seat stay pin
A seat stay pin is provided on your powerchair to provide access for service and maintenance. When the seat is raised, ensure the spring pin clicks back into the lock position to hold the seat upright.
WARNING:
Do not move the wheelchair with the seat stay pin in place and make sure you are on flat stable ground. Make sure that the pin is retracted before lowering the seat.
4.27 Wheels
DANGER!
Always use the pump that is supplied with the chair, Never use a forecourt pump. Inspect all tyres regularly for signs of wear. Do not drive over anything that could cause punctures in the tyres.
Ensure that there are no objects in your path that could
possibly become lodged in your chair mechanism or in the spokes of the rear wheels. This could cause the chair to come to a sudden stop. Riding over drains or grids could cause the wheelchair castors or wheels to become lodged, causing the chair to come to a sudden stop. Always maintain the correct pressure for the tyre. These are listed in section 13 of this manual.
4.28 Rear view mirror
WARNING!
To avoid injury to people around you please be aware
that the mirror protrudes outside the space envelope of
the chair and could cause injury to someone when driving
past.
The mirror must be used on the 10KPH model on UK
roads. Always make sure that when using the mirror that it is clean and unbroken so that it does not impair your visibility.
4.29 Crutch holder
WARNING!
Make sure that the crutch is securely fastened to the crutch holder. Make sure that the crutch is not interfering with the mechanisms of the chair. Make sure that the crutch does not protrude from the chair. Do not attempt to remove the crutch whilst the chair is in motion. Always come to a complete stop and turn off the power to the controls before attempting to remove the crutch. This will avoid accidentally operating the chair.

taken if removing them for repair.
4.31 Vent tray
WARNING!
Using a vent tray will affect the stability and overall weight of your wheelchair.
Make sure that the batteries and the ventilator are securely fastened to the tray before use. Familiarise yourself with the increased size of the wheelchair before driving to prevent potential collisons When activating the recline backrest make sure that the area around the vent tray is clear. Be aware that the vent tray assembly can cause a finger trap hazard when the backrest is reclined. The vent tray is not designed to hold anything other than the vent unit and its batteries, it is not designed to hold an oxygen bottle etc. Use of these items may cause your wheelchair to become unstable. The vent tray must be installed and maintained by a Sunrise Medical authorised dealer.
4.32 Swing away tray
WARNING!
The maximum weight allowed for the tray is 2.5kg. Do not overload the tray, this could cause the tray to break or could cause the chair to become unstable. Do not leave lit cigarettes or other heat sources on the tray as this could cause the tray to deform and mark. Ensure that all extremities and clothing are free when positioning the tray for use.
4.33 Using a kerb climber
WARNING!
Always approach a kerb at 90° (Fig 4.3).
Approach the kerb (step) head on driving forwards slowly and steadily and always at a 90° angle.
RWD-Chair: As the kerb climber or castor makes contact
with the kerb (step), the wheelchair should be moving slowly. Small kerbs can be climbed from a standstill.
FWD-Chair: Start accelerating the chair after a stop app. 20cm in front of the kerb to create enough speed/torque to get the chair up. MWD-Chair: Stop the chair as soon
as the castor wheels touch the kerb.
RWD- and MWD-Chair: Apply sufficient power to the
motors to lift the front of the chair up onto the kerb (step) and then apply slightly more power and speed so that the drive wheels climb the kerb (step) smoothly and without
hesitation. As far as possible, keep the joystick in the straight forward position. FWD-Chair: slow down the
acceleration as soon as the drive wheels are on the kerb until the rear castor are up.
In accordance to the ground clearance, the maximum
obstacle height possible to climb is 5 cm for a RWD-
Chair (10 cm with kerb climber on a rear wheel drive base, Fig. 4.9, overleaf) and 10 cm for a FWD- and MWD chair, when conducted as described above.
WARNING!
The approach speed and process can vary depending on your wheelchair drive type and castor wheel choice.

4.33.1 Dismounting the kerb with a rear wheel drive chair
WARNING!
Reverse the chair slowly and carefully until both rear wheels are on the edge of the kerb, again in a 90° position to the kerb.
Reverse as slowly as possible off the kerb with the rear wheels. You will feel more secure if you can lean forward, but if you can’t, don’t worry, the wheelchair is extremely stable. As long as you stay within its limitation, you will be quite safe.
The front of the chair will naturally follow down the kerb as you continue to drive slowly backwards.
We recommend to use the lap strap to feel more secure during declining the kerb.
4.33.2 Dismounting the kerb with a front (FWD) or mid wheel drive (MWD) chair
WARNING!
Move the chair slowly and carefully in a forward direction until both front wheels are on the edge of the kerb, again in a 90° position to the kerb. (Fig 4.3 )
Drive as slowly as possible off the kerb with the drive wheels. Don’t stop the chair during declining the kerb. You will feel more secure if you can lean backwards, but if you can’t, don’t worry, the wheelchair is extremely stable. As long as you stay within its limitation, you will be quite safe.
The rear of the chair will naturally follow down the kerb as you continue to drive slowly forwards.
All powered seating options need to be in home position.
Your powered leg rests may need to be adjusted to give
enough clearance to mount or dismount the kerb.
We recommend to use the lap strap to feel more secure during declining the kerb. For extra protection we recommend to fit every chair with the leg rests.
4.33.3 Kerb climber tting and removal procedure
(RWD base only)
Locate the kerb climber bar into the left hand location bracket and push it into the right hand receiver bracket (Fig. 4.4 and Fig 4.5).

DANGER!
1. Please show the utmost consideration for the other traffic on the road. Remember that the last thing a car or lorry driver expects to see is a wheelchair backing off the kerb into the road. If in any doubt, do not risk crossing the road until you are certain that it is safe.
2. Always cross the road as quickly as possible; there may be other traffic.
3. Do not attempt to go up or down more than a 10 cm
(4”) high kerb (Jive R only with kerb climber fitted).
4. Do not attempt to use the kerb climber on a series of
steps.
5. Do not attempt kerbs if on steep slopes or cambers.
6. Do not attempt any kerbs in the vicinity of drain covers, uneven or gritty road surfaces.
7. Do not attempt to dismount a kerb any higher than 5
cm (2”) in the forwards direction in a RWD-chair.
8. Do not mount or dismount kerbs at an angle other than straight on (90 degrees) to the edge of the kerb.
9. Prior to climbing ensure your leg rests will clear the kerb.
10. Take care of the anti tips which might interfere with
the kerb or the ground when mounting or dismounting a kerb.

11.0 Speciality Controls
11.1 Proximity head array
WARNINGS
The sensors used in this product will operate if moisture of any substance that is electrically conductive is present in sufficient quantities. Electro magnetic interference from electrical power lines and certain types of phones will cause the sensors to activate. These sensors are capacitive in nature and any material that is conductive will activate them. These sensors are electronic sensors and generate an electronic field which can be affected by liquids and radio frequency interference. If the user is caught in the rain or some type of liquid is spilled on the sensor pad, the chair has a great potential to act erratically. Try to activate the stop sensor or shut the chair down if possible. Avoid use under high power lines and around cell phones which will interfere with the electronic field generated by the sensor. A warning must be conveyed to the wheelchair operator that the chair could come to a sudden stop or act in an erratic manner due to liquids or radio frequency interference (RFI). Most electronic equipment is influenced by (RFI). Caution should be exercised with regard to the use of portable communication equipment in the area around where the sensors are located in the head array. If RFI causes erratic behaviour, shut the wheelchair off immediately. Leave off while transmission is in progress.
11.2 Driving with the head array (Fig 11.1)
The head array uses 3 zero touch sensors for driving, one in each head pad.
The sensor in the centre of the headpiece controls forward and reverse. Sensors in the right and left headpieces are for right and left directional motion respectively.
The fourth switch is your mode switch and it toggles the head array between forward and reverse and between driving the wheelchair and operating any ancillary devices (such as powered seating or augmentative communications systems.)
Switching modes A variety of mode switches are available. These can be divided into three types: internal, hardware mounted and external.
Internal: mode in left pad or right pad Hardware mounted: beam switch
External: fibre optic, button or mode jack 2. All mode
switches perform the same tasks. Single click of the mode switch will toggle between forward and reverse. A double click of the mode switch will change the operating mode of the system. e.g. standby to drive to actuator etc.
For further details refer to the user manual supplied with your module or contact your Sunrise Medical authorised dealer
11.3 Proportional head control
Operation of the head control (Fig 11.2)
1. The drive is based on displacement of the headrest. A small amount of pressure must be exerted on the headrest to generate results.
2. Neutral position is when the headrest is not displaced.
3. When the headrest moves right or left, the chair will move in the respective direction.
4. For forward or reverse the headrest needs to be
displaced in a backwards direction. Use of the mode switch selects the direction of movement. This will be displayed on the enhanced display module.
5. The greater the displacement of the headrest from the neutral position the faster the chair will go.
For further details refer to the user manual supplied with your module or contact your Sunrise Medical authorised dealer.

12.0 Batteries and charging
WARNING!
Please read the owner’s manual with the charger supplied carefully. The general procedures and effects for the interference with the chair and the batteries remain valid. Do not expose any part of the battery to direct heat (i.e. naked flame, gas fire). When charging always place your charger on a hard surface in a room with good ventilation. You should not charge your batteries in outdoor conditions.
12.1 Batteries
The batteries are contained within the drive unit located under the battery shroud. To remove the batteries first release the two handle screws under the front of the seat frame (Fig. 12.1), (Fig.12.2 MWD), which connect the seat frame with the seat module interface. Flip the seat frame backwards until the automatic lock pin
clicks to secure it in place, (Fig. 12.3 and 12.4). Ensure
the seat is secure before letting go. Lift off the battery box lid. Disconnect the 2 pin Anderson connectors from each battery (Fig.12.5 and 12.6). There are straps available on each battery to facilitate lifting them out. Remove the front battery first. To fit the batteries reverse the above procedure.
12.2 Safety cut-outs
In the event of a short circuit there are several safety systems built into your wheelchair to safeguard your
electrical circuits, (Fig.12.7).
1. Fusible 150A links are connected into the battery
harnesses to protect the batteries and wiring.
2. 15A auxiliary power circuit fuses for auxiliary modules
and the Recaro seat power supply
To replace them contact your Sunrise Medical authorised dealer, who will also diagnose the fault.
12.3 Common battery statements
Over the years, battery technology has moved forward but, unfortunately, some of the advice given on battery care has not. This has resulted in a number of confused and at times contradictory instructions on the ‘best’ way to care for your batteries. This section will help to dispel some of these myths and legends.
Batteries are the power source for almost all of the modern mobility products available today. The design of batteries used in mobility products is significantly different to the batteries used to start a car for example. Car batteries are designed to release a large amount of power over a short period of time, whilst mobility batteries (commonly called deep cycle batteries) release their power evenly, over a long period of time. Therefore, due to the lower production volumes and increased technological requirements, mobility batteries are typically more expensive. Commonly two 12 volt batteries are used together in a
mobility product, giving a total voltage of 24 volts. The
size of the battery (e.g. its available power) is expressed
in amps per hour e.g. 70amp/hr. The higher the number,
the bigger the battery size, weight and, potentially, the greater the distance you can travel. Sunrise Medical only fit as standard maintenance free batteries into these types of wheelchairs.
CAUTION!
Do not fit car batteries to the wheelchair. Fit only deep cycle, maintenance free mobility batteries.

When the batteries are worn out, take them to the local authority disposal point.
Quickie Jive 39
12.4 Maintenance free batteries
This type of battery uses a method of carrying the electrolyte commonly referred to as ‘gel’, that is held within the battery case. As the name implies, no maintenance is required other than regular charging. You can safely transport this type of battery without fear of acid spilling. Furthermore, they are approved for transportation on aircraft, trains and ships.
12.5 Battery care
Below is set out a battery care plan for maintenance free batteries. This has been agreed between Sunrise Medical and the battery manufacturers, to enable you to get the best out of your batteries. If a different care plan is followed, this may result in lower than expected performance from your mobility vehicle.
12.6 Maintenance free battery care plan
CAUTIONS!
1. Only use an approved Sunrise Medical charger compatible with the vehicle to be charged.
2. Charge your batteries every night, regardless of the amount of use your mobility device has had during the day.
3. Do not interrupt the charging cycle.
4.If your mobility device is not required for use, it should
remain connected to the charger until required. This will
not damage your batteries, as long as the mains socket/ plug is left switched on. Turning the mains socket/plug
off, but leaving the mains cable plugged in will eventually deplete your battery charge.
5. If you leave your vehicle for an extended period (more than 15 days) charge the batteries fully and then disconnect the main battery lead.
6. Failure to allow for recharge will damage the batteries and can lead to shortened distances and premature failure.
7. Do not top up the charge of your batteries during the
day. Wait until the evening for a full overnight charge.
8. As a general rule, maintenance free batteries take
longer to fully charge than “wet” lead acid batteries.
9. The battery terminals need to be checked regularly for signs of corrosion. If any corrosion is apparent,
then clean the terminals completely and re-grease the terminal using Vaseline petroleum jelly, not ordinary
grease. Ensure that the terminal nut and bolt, cable clip
and exposed cable are completely covered with jelly.
10. Following all the points above should result in a healthier battery, greater range for the vehicle user and a longer life for your batteries.
11. Return the batteries back to Sunrise Medical or directly to the battery manufacturer for recycling, when they no longer hold charge.
12.7 General charger information
The external charger has been designed to charge two
12V Gel type batteries connected in series (= 24 V).
12.7.1 Charger safety features
The chargers have features which prevent hazards or accidents occurring as a result of connecting batteries the wrong way round, overheating caused by fault conditions or attempting to charge wrong voltage batteries.
The majority of charger sizes are electrically double
insulated and no earth connection is required. Some larger sizes may be electrically earthed and this will be clearly stated on the label.
The 3 pin UK mains input plug contains a replaceable
fuse. The rating of this fuse is shown on the charger label.
DANGER!
As with all mains powered electrical equipment, always replace blown fuses with the same type and size of fuse as specified. Fitting of different fuses can result in an increased fire risk, damage to the charger or failure of the charger to operate properly.
If your charger has been specified for use in Continental Europe it will contain a European two pin plug which does not have a fuse. In this case the fuse is located in the fascia panel of the charger.

12.7.2 Procedure for connecting the charger and charging
Connect the battery charger round output plug to the • charging socket on the front of the joystick module,
(Fig. 12.8-12.10).
Connect the charger to the mains supply by means of the mains plug and switch on. The GREEN light will flash to show power is on and the charger is initialising. The ORANGE light comes on to show that the batteries are charging. Flickering between ORANGE and GREEN shows that charge is almost complete. Solid GREEN indicates charge is complete.
For more information about the charger operation, consult the instructions provided with the charger.
NOTE: If the charger is not connected to the wheelchair, it does not output charge voltage. The charger may be used with other brands of Gel
type batteries, subject to written confirmation from the
Technical Department of Sunrise Medical.
DANGER!
An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of an improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If any extension cord must be used, make sure the pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those of the plug on the charger; and that the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.
WARNING!
Always switch off at the mains before disconnecting the batteries. The charger is designed for indoor use. Do not use outdoors or expose to rain, snow, spray or moisture.
CAUTION!
When buying replacement batteries or charger always consult your Sunrise Medical service agent. Do not leave the charger connected to the battery with the mains disconnected or switch ed off. This could result in damage to your battery being caused by deep discharge over a period of time. To reduce the risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger.

12.8 The range of your vehicle
Please refer to the specification tables at the back of this manual for Energy Consumption, (Maximum Range), information.
Most manufacturers of mobility products state the range of their vehicles either in the sales literature or within the Owner’s Manual. The range stated sometimes differs from manufacturer to manufacturer even though the battery size is the same. Sunrise Medical measure the range of their vehicles in a consistent and uniform manner, but variances still occur due to motor efficiencies and overall product load weight.
The range figures are calculated to I.S.O. Standard
7176. Part 4: Wheelchair Energy Consumption
Theoretical Range
This test is carried out in controlled conditions with new, fully charg ed batteries, on a level test surface and a user weight of 100 kg. The range figures stated should be seen as a theoretical maximum and could be reduced if any single, or combination, of the following circumstances occur:
User weight heavier than 100 kg. Batteries whose age and condition are less than perfect. The terrain is difficult e.g. very hilly, sloping, muddy ground, gravel, grass, snow and ice. The vehicle climbs kerbs regularly. The ambient temperature is very hot or very cold. Incorrect tyre pressures in one or more tyres.
Lots of start/stop driving.
Also thick pile carpets within the home can affect range. Use of additional power consumption options (e.g. light, actuators, etc.)
The battery sizes available on each Sunrise Medical product should give sufficient range to cope with the
majority of customer’s lifestyles.
12.9 Battery warranty
Battery warranties are subject to periods set by the
manufacturers. However, most of these warranties are
subject to a wear and tear clause, and if you genuinely
wear out your batteries in 6 months, it will not be possible to obtain a replacement under warranty.
WARNINGS!
Make sure the cord is located so that it will not be • stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to
damage or stress. Do not rest a battery on top of the charger. Do not stand the charger on a carpet or other soft surface. Always place it on a hard flat surface. Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or otherwise damaged in any way. Take it to a qualified technician. Never place the charger directly above the battery being charg ed; gases from the battery will corrode and damage the charger. Never charge a frozen battery. A fully charged battery will rarely freeze but the electrolyte of a discharged battery can freeze
at -9° Centigrade. Any battery that is suspected of
being frozen should be thawed completely before charging. Never sit with the charger on your lap when charging your batteries The charger casing will get hot during its normal operation. Do not disassemble charger; only have it repaired by
the manufacturers. Incorrect re-assembly may result
in a risk of electric shock or fire. To reduce the risk of an electric shock, unplug the charger from the outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off the controls will not reduce the risk. Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of battery or charger. Be extra cautious to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool onto the battery. It could spark or short circuit the battery or other electrical parts that may cause an explosion. Also take off all personal metal
effects and dangling objects when working on the
batte r y.
42 Quickie Jive
DANGER!
Alterations or substitutions must not be made to the wheelchair securement points or to structural and frame or components without consulting the manufacturer. Failure to do so will invalidate the ability of the wheelchair to be transported within a vehicle.
The wheelchair should be inspected by a Sunrise Medical
authorised dealer before re-use following involvement in
any type of vehicle impact.
DANGER!
Both pelvic and upper torso restraint belts must be used to restrain the occupant (Fig 13.2) to reduce the possibility of head and chest impacts with the vehicle components.
NOTE: This wheelchair has been successfully crash tested with the Unwins headrest. Sunrise Medical recommends that you use a suitably positioned headrest when being transported in the wheelchair. However it is highly recommended that as a preference you transfer from your wheelchair to a seat within the motor vehicle.
WARNING!
Postural supports (lap straps, lap belts) should not be used or relied on for occupant restraint in a moving vehicle unless they are labelled as meeting the
requirements specified in ISO 7176-19:2001 or SAE J2249. Spill proof sealed batteries such as “gelled • electrolyte” must be installed on powered wheelchairs
when used in a motor vehicle.
13.0 Transportation
A wheelchair secured in a vehicle will not provide the equivalent level of safety and security as a vehicle seating system. Sunrise Medical recommends that the user transfers to the vehicle seating and uses the
vehicle-installed restraint system wherever possible.
Sunrise Medical recognises that it is not always practical for the user to be transferred and in these circumstances, where the user must be transported whilst in the wheelchair, the following advice must be followed:
13.1 Transportation Warnings
WARNING!
Confirm that the vehicle is suitably equipped to transport a passenger in a wheelchair, and ensure
the method of access/egress is suitable for your
wheelchair type. The vehicle should have the floor strength to take the combined weight of the user, the wheel chair and accessories. Sufficient space should be available around the wheelchair to enable clear access to attach, tighten and release the wheelchair and occupant tie down restraints and safety belts. The occupied wheelchair must be located in a forward facing position and secured by the wheelchair tie down and occupant restraint straps (WTORS tie downs meeting the requirements of ISO
10542 Part 2 or SAE J2249) in accordance with the
WTORS manufacturer’s instructions. Refer to the section ‘Tie Down Instructions’ for further information on transporting your wheelchair. The wheelchair’s use in other positions within a vehicle has not been tested e.g. transportation in a side facing position must not be carried out under any circumstances. (Fig 13.1).

Due to the weight of the Jive wheelchair it is always
necessary to use a 6 strap tie down system, 4 straps at
the rear of the wheelchair and 2 at the front.
A representative FWD/RWD and MWD Jive wheelchair
has been tested in accordance with the dynamic
performance requirements specified in ISO 7176-19:2008 “Wheeled Mobility Devices for use in Motor Vehicles”. The 6 point strap restraint system, 4 straps at the rear and 2 straps at the front, conforms to ISO 10542 or SAE J2249 and was used in accordance with the WTORS
manufacturer’s instructions. The Unwins TITAN 1 restraint system was used for these tests. However other 6 strap restraint systems may
be used as long as they conform to ISO10542 or SAE J2249 and are used in accordance with the WTORS
manufacturer’s instructions. They must also be checked to make sure that they are sufficiently specified for the weight of the wheelchair and rider
NOTE: In order to restrain the wheelchair effectively using a six point strap system please ensure that the tie down straps are correctly tensioned as per the WTORS manufacturers instructions
DANGER!
The tie-down restraints should be fitted to the main
frame of the wheelchair as indicated by the diagrams in this section. Positioning of Tie down Restraints on the Wheelchair, and not to any attachments or accessories, e.g. not around the spokes of wheels, brakes or footrests.
DANGER!
The tie–down restraints should be attached as close • as possible at an angle of 45 degrees and tightened
securely in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Alterations or substitutions must not be made to the wheelchair tie down points or to structural and frame or components without consulting the manufacturer. Failure to do so will invalidate the ability of a Sunrise Medical wheelchair to be transported within a vehicle. Both pelvic and upper torso restraint belts must be used to restrain the occupant to reduce the possibility of head and chest impacts with the vehicle
components and serious risk of injury to the user and
other vehicle occupants. (Fig.13.2) The upper torso
restraint belt should be mounted to the vehicle “B” pillar - failure to do so will increase the risk of serious abdominal injuries to the user.
A head restraint suitable for transportation (see label on headrest) must be fitted and suitably positioned at all times during transportation. The safety of the user during transportation depends upon the diligence of the person securing the tie down restraints and they should have received
appropriate instructions and/or training in their use.
Wherever possible remove and stow safely away from the wheelchair all auxiliary equipment, for example: Crutches, Loose cushions, Tray Tables, etc.
Articulating/elevating leg rest should not be used
in the elevated position when the wheelchair and user are being transported and the wheelchair is restrained using Wheelchair Transport and Occupant Restraints. Reclining backrests should be returned to an upright position. The manual brakes must be firmly applied.
Fig.13.3
44 Quickie Jive
13.2 Occupant Restraint Instruction:
The pelvic restraint belt must be worn low across the front of the pelvis so that the angle of the pelvic belt
is within the preferred zone of 30 to 75 degrees to the
horizontal. A steeper (greater) angle within the preferred zone is desirable i.e. closer to, but never exceeding
75degrees.(Fig.13.3).
The upper torso restraint belt must fit over the shoulder and across the chest as illustrated Fig 13.5.
Restraint belts must be adjusted as tightly as possible
consistent with user comfort. Restraint belt webbing must not be twisted when in use.
Restraints should be mounted to the vehicle “B”
pillar and should not be held away from the body by wheelchair components such as armrest or wheels,
(Fig.13.4).
The tie down symbol (Fig.13.6) on the wheelchair frame indicates the position of the wheelchair restraint straps. The straps are then tensioned after the front straps have been fitted to secure the wheelchair.

14.0 Maintenance and Cleaning
CAUTION!
It is important that you follow the following cleaning and maintenance schedule in order to keep your wheelchair in tip top condition.
14.1 Tyre maintenance and pressures
14.1.1 Tyre pressure
CAUTION!
If pneumatic tyres are fitted to your wheelchair it is important to regularly check the air pressure and for signs of wear.
The correct pressures are between the minimum of 137 kiloPascals (20 psi, 1.37 bar) and the maximum 241 kiloPascals (35 psi, 2.41 bar) for rear and front wheels
(see side of tyre). The pressure will need to vary, depending on the weight of the user.
NOTE: It is important that front wheels are inflated to equal pressures as a pair, and likewise the rear. The inflator pump provides the safest method of inflating your wheelchair tyres and the pressure can be checked with a standard motor vehicle pressure gauge.
DANGER!
Do not inflate beyond the maximum allowed tyre pressure. Always use the pump that is supplied with the chair, Never use a forecourt pump
14.1.2 Tyre wear
When inspecting the tyres for signs of wear, look for significant scuff marks, cuts and a diminished tyre tread. Tyres will need to be changed when the tread cannot be
seen over the complete surface of the tyre, (Fig.14.1).
14.1.3 Drive wheel tyre repair
To remove the wheel/tyre:
Please see below and next page for photographs.
Use a 8.0 mm hex key to loosen the 3-Socket studs,
(Fig. 14.2). Jack the wheel up and support it using blocks, ( Fig. 14.3). Remove the 3 studs and pull the wheel away from the hub. Remove the valve cap and let the air out of the tyre by gently pressing the valve stem with a small screw driver, (Fig. 14.4).
There are 6 rim studs that must be loosened/• tightened in the number order shown, (Fig.14.5). Use a 5.0 mm Allen key to release/tighten the studs.
(Fig. 14.5) . Lift the inner rim off the tyre wall (Fig. 14.6).
Lift the tyre and tube off the outer rim, (Fig.14.7). • Gently get a hold of the inner tube just behind the
valve.
Carefully feed the tube out of the tyre, (fig.14.8).Ensure all parts are clean before reassembling, • (Fig.14.9).
To refit
Place the tube inside the tyre and rest the tyre on the outer rim. Align the valve stem with the cut out in the rim. Face the valve stem outward. Place the inner rim over the tyre, tube and outer rim. Align the cut out to fit over the valve stem and match
it up to the cut out in the outer rim, (Fig.14.10). Make sure the stud mounts are in line on both rims. • Tighten the studs in the sequence shown in Fig.14.5,
taking care not to pinch the tube. Slowly inflate to the pressures quoted in section
14.1.1 . Refit the wheel back onto the motor shaft and fix it • safely with the 3 studs to a torque of 47Nm.
For solid tyres the sequence is the same, just discount
the references to the inner tube and valve.

14.4 Cleaning and your wheelchair
The wheelchair should be wiped over once per week with a slightly damp, not wet, cloth and any fluff or dust that has accumulated around the motors should be blown or dusted away.
CAUTION!
Make sure that you dry all parts of your wheelchair if it becomes wet or damp after cleaning or if it is used in a wet or damp atmosphere.
WARNING!
It is important that should the wheelchair be used by more than one person it is cleaned thoroughly to ensure there is no cross infection
14.4.1 Cleaning and inspection of your seating
WARNING!
Tears, dents, wearing or slackening of upholstery particularly near to metal could result in poor posture or lower levels of comfort and pressure relief.
Cleaning instructions for Rehab (FXL) seating:
You can wash all parts of the covers with a gentle-wash detergent at 40°C. You can spin-dry the covers, but
do not dry them in a dryer. You can remove all parts of the covers independently of each other and wash them separately. Take out the foam inlays prior to washing and close the Velcro fasteners! Where upholstery cannot be removed, clean regularly to prevent build up or soiling. Clean with a damp soapy cloth however disinfectants may be used in dilution as specified by their manufacturer. Ensure surfaces are rinsed well with clean water and dried thoroughly.
Cleaning instructions for Jay/Jay Comfort seating:
Clean regularly to prevent build up or soiling. Clean with a damp soapy cloth and rinse well with clean water. Dry the surface thoroughly. A soft brush with soapy water may be used to remove stubborn dirt. Ensure surfaces are then rinsed and dried. Some chemical colourings, e.g. ball point pen, food colourings or clothes dyes should be removed immediately to prevent long term staining.
CAUTION!
Do not use solvents, bleaches, abrasives, synthetic detergents, wax polishes or aerosols. Disinfectants may be used in dilution as specified by their manufacturer. Ensure surfaces are rinsed with clean water and dried thoroughly.
Cleaning instructions for all and Recaro
CAUTION!
You should remove stains on your seat as soon as possible. After a long period of use, you should clean the cover of your seat with a standard commercially available dry foam cleaning agent. You should always clean the whole surface and not
just individual spots in order to avoid unattractive
edges. The longer you wait the more difficult it will be to remove them. Avoid powerful rubbing with aqueous solutions. This will roughen up cover fabric. Dirt stains (eg. beer, blood, cola, red wine etc) are best removed with the dry foam cleaning agents or
with a mild-action detergent.
Please follow the respective instructions for use when treating the covers.
The covers should be allowed to dry for at least 48
hours after cleaning with foam cleaning agents. Grease stains (eg. ballpoint pen, lipstick, chewing gum etc). Use a proprietary stain remover. Carefully rub the soiled location on the surface only with a clean cloth impregnated with the stain remover. Use only a very small quantity of stain remover. Test a small inconspicuous area first. The upholstery material must not be saturated, since the stain remover might then attack it and destroy it. Do not use a hose or a pressure washer to clean your chair.
WARNING!
Always read the label on any commercial or domestic cleaning substances. Always follow the instructions carefully.
General cleaning
All parts/ accessories such as swing away trays should
be cleaned with a damp cloth.
All lateral supports, headrest, armrests, side- guards, calf
pads, lap belts and kneepads should be cleaned with a damp cloth.
