Battery Charging
To charge the wheelchair batteries connect the charger plug into the battery charging socket on the VR2. You
will not be able to drive the wheelchair when the charger is connected.
To connect the charger plug, ensure the single pin is at the bottom, as shown in the illustration below, and then
insert the charger plug into the VR2. The molded guide on the VR2 will help you to locate the plug. Make sure
the plug is pushed fully into position. Now plug the 3-pronged plug into a standard AC wall outlet.
Note: Make sure the AC wall outlet you are using is not controlled by a light switch causing the charger to be
switched off during the charging process.
Battery Charging
Alternatively, you may charge the battery pack directly.
1.
Remove the battery pack from the power chair.
2.
Locate the charger port at the rear side of the battery pack and swing the cover out of the way.
3.
Plug the charger into the battery pack socket.
4. Insert the plug at the other end of the charger power cord into a standard electrical wall outlet.
5. Disconnect the charger power cord from the wall outlet and from the battery pack charging socket when
the batteries are fully charged.
NOTE: The batteries should be fully charged in approximately eight hours. A full charge is indicated
when the green light on the battery charger side panel turns on and all 10 joystick LEDs are lit when the
joystick is turned on.
VR2 Charger Connection
Note: To prevent the wheelchair from driving
while the charger is connected, pin 3 must be
linked to pin 2 inside the charger’s plug.
