8.1 General Guidelines
Avoid exposing your power chair to any type of moisture where possible (rain, snow, mist,
salt water, or wash). Such exposure can damage your power chair – see section 8.6 -
Corrosion Protection. Should your power wheelchair come into contact with water, dry as
thoroughly as possible with a towel and then allow it to sit in a warm room for 10-12 hours to
dry. Check the joystick operation and brakes before using your power wheelchair. If there are
any doubts or inconsistencies with your wheelchair, please contact your Magic Mobility
dealer
STOP!
DO NOT leave the power wheelchair in rain or a storm of any kind.
DO NOT use the power wheelchair in a shower or leave it in a damp bathroom
whilst taking a shower.
DO NOT leave power wheelchair in a damp area or outdoors for any length of
time.
Direct exposure to rain or damp will cause electrical and mechanical
malfunctions and may cause the chair to prematurely rust.
- Avoid knocking or bumping the controller, especially the joystick.
- Keep the controller clean
- Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures
- Do not place the controller cable so it may be pinched in any of the seat or power
base frames
Some parts of the power wheelchair are susceptible to extremes of temperature. It is
possible for the batteries to freeze. The temperature at which the batteries freeze depends
on a number of factors including their chemical composition, the level of charge and their
usage. At elevated temperatures; the power wheelchair may operate at a reduced speed.
This a safety feature built into the controller to protect the motors and other electrical
components.
8.2 Batteries
The batteries used in your power chair are sealed, no maintenance gel cells and require only
correct charging procedures – see Battery Charging 7.2 . Typically these batteries should
last from 1 to 2 years depending upon type of usage.
