The maximum speed/profile indicator will be rippling up and down. • Push the joystick forward until the controller bleeps. • Push the joystick in reverse until the controller bleeps. • Release the joystick, there will be a long bleep. • The Powerchair is now unlocked. SLEEP MODE: If the controller is left on and not used for more than ten minutes, the controller will automatically “go to sleep”. This is recognized by a slow intermittent flash of the battery indicator lights. Simply turn the controller off and back on to reset. 8/18/2004 10 Drive/Freewheel Mechanism The drive/freewheel levers are found toward the front of the Powerchair, one on each side, located at the end of each motor. These levers will allow you to disengage the drive mechanism and push the Powerchair while in freewheel mode. Always leave the chair in drive mode. The freewheel option is there only to allow the chair to be pushed manually when the need arises (i.e., to store or push unit out of a tight space). The Powerchair will not function while the drive mechanism is disengaged. In addition, the VSI-50 will flash a fault code and beep steadily if turned on. Refer to Table 1 for more details.

The armrests are hinged at the bottom and can be pushed down and out of the way for sideways transfer. Pull armrest up, then push armrest forward and down for side transfer. Reclining Seat The Jiffy Powerchair comes with a reclining seat. The reclining seat lever is located on the left side below the armrest. Simply pull the lever up to adjust.

It is of the utmost importance that the following points are observed: 1. Never attempt to go up or down an incline which has a rough, wet or slippery surface (loose gravel, tree roots, wet grass, polished floor, etc.) 2. Always approach an incline head on, not at an angle 3. Always travel at a speed that you are comfortable with and that you feel in complete control 4. Avoid sudden or erratic action with the joystick 5. When riding along in a straight line you may experience “veering to one side”. This is due to the natural camber in the construction of the pavement. To correct this you simply have to steer slightly against it, as you continue to move forward. 8/18/2004 14 Caring for Your Shoprider Jiffy Powerchair First Time Use Prior to using your Jiffy portable Powerchair for the first time, you must charge the batteries fully (refer to Battery Charging Procedures). Charging may take up to 8 hours. Charging the batteries completely prior to first time use will benefit battery efficiency. Tires Since your tires are flat free tires, there is no need to ever worry about tire air-pressure. General Maintenance and Lubrication • Inspection for loose wheel bolts, seat and arm tightening bolts, castor nuts and other nuts and bolts is recommended on a regular basis. • Most lubricated components on the Jiffy Powerchair are designed to be maintenance free and are sealed. Therefore, lubrication is not required for these components. However, the driving axles should always have a very light coat of multipurpose grease. DO NOT USE TOO MUCH GREASE! Drips may stain or damage carpets, furnishings, etc. • It is recommended that the driving axles (inside the drive wheel assy) and castor assemblies be checked and cleaned occasionally for hair and debris build-up, which will hinder the performance of the unit. • Check the batteries on a regular basis. For extended battery life, it is highly recommended that the batteries be fully charged after each use. If the batteries are weak, severely discharged or old, a variety of problems may occur with the unit including charging problems, reduced speed, loss of range, and others. Please contact your provider for battery replacement. 8/18/2004 15 Batteries & Battery Charging Batteries The Shoprider Jiffy Powerchair is designed to operate on two 12 volt/12Ah sealed lead acid or gel type maintenance free batteries. For easy handling, the batteries are contained within a battery-pack. The life of the batteries may be affected by temperature, terrain, weight of user, and care...
