1.2 Battery charge display
• All diodes illuminate: maximum driving range!
• Only yellow and red diodes illuminate:
Decreased driving range! Charge batteries before starting
long journeys!
• Only red diodes illuminate:
Very low driving range! Charge the batteries as soon as
possible!
• Only one red diode blinks:
Battery reserve = charge batteries immediately!
Battery charge display
CAUTION: Danger of battery destruction! After a certain drive time on reserve battery
power the electronics system switches the drive off automatically and the wheelchair will
be immobile. If you wait a few minutes, the batteries "recover" enough for the electronic
system to be switched on again. You can continue driving briefly until the mobility aid
stops again. If you repeat this procedure a few times the batteries will be destroyed!
• Always ensure that the batteries are charged sufficiently for the journey you are planning!
• If possible, avoid running the batteries empty!

1.3 Flexible speed settings
The A-series remote has two modes.
• 5-gear mode incremental adaptation of maximum speed.
• VSP mode - both incremental and infinitely variable adaptation of maximum speed.
The user can change between the two modes by simultaneously pressing and holding (approx. 2
seconds) the "Increase speed" and "Decrease speed" keys whilst the electronics is switched on.
The control system beeps briefly once once the mode has changed.
1.3.1 5-gear mode
If you press the "Increase speed" or "Decrease speed" Keys whilst the electronics is in "5-gear
mode", the maximum speed of the mobility aid will be changed between 20% and 100% in stages
of 20%.
1.3.2 VSP mode (Variable Speed Programming)
The maximum speed can still be changed incrementally if the electronics is in "VSP mode".
The maximum speed can also be variably changed by pressing and holding down the "Increase
speed" or "Decrease speed" keys, which enables almost any speed setting. This can be especially
useful in adapting the speed of the mobility aid to the walking speed of an attendant.
