6.5.2 Charger

WARNING
Explosion hazard due to sparks. The battery charger
must always be switched off and the mains plug removed
before disconnecting the battery.
NOTICE
Unauthorised battery replacement. Batteries may only
be replaced by a specialist dealer. The characteristic
charging curve programmed in the charger at the factory
matches the supplied battery and may not be changed in-
dependently. Setting the characteristic curve incorrectly
can result in permanent damage to the battery.
The battery charger is designed for gel batteries (mainte-
nance-free batteries). The charger is programmed with the
matching characteristic curve for ideal charging of the re-
spective battery type. The matching characteristic curve is
set at the factory when the power wheelchair is shipped.
The characteristic curve has to be checked if the battery
charger is to be used with another power wheelchair or if
new batteries are installed.
