IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
Safety is the main consideration when using your chair. It is required that you read and
understand all the operating and safety instructions discussed in this manual, and ensure your
chair is correctly tted and adjusted by your dealer or the prescribing healthcare professional.
Make sure to engage the wheel locks before entering or leaving the chair. The wheel locks are
designed to prevent movement of the chair. It is preferable to ensure the front castors are in the
forward position before transferring into or out of the chair. With the castors in the forward position
the wheel base of the chair is increased and therefore, offers more stability.
DO NOT move forward in the seat while leaning forward out of the chair. If you need to pick an
object up from the oor, drive past it, then reverse so the front castors are in the forward position.
This gives the chair its greater stability.
To maintain lateral stability do not reach further than the length of your arm. DO NOT lean out of
the chair as this will cause instability.
When transferring, DO NOT stand on the leg rests. Depending on the style of leg rests either
swing them away or fold them up before transferring.
When approaching a ramp, be sure of your own ability and your limitations in terms of strength
and endurance.
Before attempting a ramp the following basic rules should be considered:
1. Surface of the ramp: Is it slippery?
2. Degree of incline: Is it too steep to attempt alone?
3. Length of ramp: Is it too long for your endurance?
4. Obstacles: Are there any obstacles on the ramp that would necessitate assistance?
Be very careful when going up or down steep inclines:
If it becomes necessary to stop when going up an incline, special care must be taken to avoid
abrupt or sudden forward movement. During continuous forward movements, the chair is capable
of falling backwards.
Always keep the chair under control when going down a ramp or incline. Speed should be
controlled at all times.
If you encounter a kerb whilst driving, caution should be taken to prevent the user being
thrown forward:
CAUTION: Do not try to climb a kerb by driving up it. Have a helper move the chair for you
following the instructions below.
Lifting the rear wheels rst if going down a kerb, or the front wheels rst if going up, ensure both
sides are lifted equally, and ensure the motors are disengaged.
CAUTION: Please be aware that any adjustments on the power chair may affect the
handling and performance.
1.Please read the instruction Booklet carefully before using your scooter.
2.Keep the scooter properly maintained.
3.Do not drive the scooter on slippery surfaces or on slopes over 8°
4.Do not drive on highways, crowded roads, or unfamiliar areas.
5.Do not tum at high speed in either forward or reverse.
6.Do not wash with water or leave scooter in a humid Environment since
water can damage the electric parts.
7.Always re-engage the emergency freewheel drive after use.

Extendible Joystick Adjustment:
The joystick can be adjusted so that it is in a convenient position for use. To adjust the unit
forward and backwards use the knob underneath the armrest pad. When loosened this allows the
horizontal tube to be adjusted to the required position.

construction supporting the joystick. Using the hexagon key provided loosen the screw, adjust unit
to the required height and re-tighten screw to secure.
Joystick conversions to left hand
1. Remove joystick and horizontal tube from right hand arm by releasing hand knob and hexagon
screw (G). (See Fig. 13)
2. Remove the two screws holding the support tube to the joystick and rotate the tube through
180º to the opposite side and secure to the joystick (G1) with the screws.
3. To convert to opposite hands remove support brackets from pads and rotate through 180º and
align with opposite screw holes and re-secure with screws.
4. Secure the original right hand armrest to the left hand arm and repeat for the other hand.
5. Re-position joystick unit to left hand side of chair and assemble then secure to left
hand arm.
6. Adjust heights and position as previous paragraphs.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. First read and fully understand this manual.
2. Mount all the electrical parts of the wheelchair system (motors, park brakes, batteries, Power
Module, Remote) on the wheelchair. for the physical dimensions of the LiNX LE System Power
Module, Remote and mounting recommendations.
3. Do not connect any cables before all the parts of the electrical system are mounted.
4. Connect the LiNX LE System Power Module to the motors the park brakes and the Remote.
5. Connect the LiNX LE System Power Module to the batteries.
CAUTION: Do not turn on the wheelchair yet.
CAUTION: Do not connect the positive terminal (B+) of the battery to the LiNX LE System
Power Module until the wheelchair is completely wired and ready for testing as described
in the Testing section.
6. Lift the wheelchair off the ground and check the installation thoroughly.
7. Program the system to the requirements of a particular wheelchair or user.
8. Test the system for functionality and safety.
Power up/down:
To switch ON the LiNX LE System, press the Power button. The Power button
is the only user input that can activate the system.
If the system is healthy, the Status indicator (through the Power button) will
light up green, and the Battery Gauge will display the current battery status.
If there is a fault with the system when powering up, the status indicator will indicate the fault with
a series of red ashes (see section 3 Diagnostics). If the fault is one that prevents the system from
driving, then the battery gauge will ash continuously.
To switch OFF the system, press the Power button; the system will power down and the Status
indicator will switch off.
The Power button is also used to perform an EMERGENCY STOP. See next section.
Emergency Stop:
If the user needs to stop the wheelchair quickly, the Power button can be pressed to perform an
EMERGENCY STOP. The wheelchair will come to a halt quickly; the rate is set by the Emergency
Deceleration parameter.
CAUTION: If this parameter is set too high, the user can lose balance or fall out of the chair.
Drive Inhibit Indication:
Drive inhibit mode is indicated by the battery gauge with a right-to-left chase sequence.
The chase sequence starts with the green LED on the right-hand side, and one-by-one, each LED
will switch on and then off. When the sequence completes at the left-most red LED, it begins
08
again at the right-hand side.
The chase sequence continues until the error condition has been cleared.
OONAPU:
OONAPU (“Out Of Neutral At Power Up”) is a safety feature that prevents
accidental movement of the wheelchair, either when powering up, or when
the wheelchair comes out of an inhibit state.
If the LiNX LE System is turned on (or comes out of an inhibit state)
while the joystick is not in the centre position, an OONAPU warning is
displayed. During an OONAPU warning, the battery gauge LEDs will ash continually to alert
the user, and the chair will not drive. If the joystick is returned to the centre position within ve
seconds, the warning will clear and the wheelchair will drive normally.
However, if the joystick remains out of neutral for longer than ve seconds, an OONAPU error will
occur; the error is displayed by the Status indicator ashing red, and the chair will not drive.
To clear the error, return the joystick to the neutral position and power the unit OFF and then
on again.
The Joystick:
The joystick controls the direction and speed of the wheelchair.
When the joystick is deected from the centre position, the wheelchair
will move in the direction of the joystick movement.
The speed of the wheelchair is proportional to the joystick deection, so that the
further the joystick is moved from the centre position, the faster the wheelchair will travel.
Controlling Maximum Speed:
The speed dial allows the user to limit the maximum speed of the wheelchair (that is, the speed
when the joystick is fully deected) to suit their preference and environment.
The dial offers 10 discrete steps between the lowest speed (dial set to the left)
and the highest speed (dial set to the right).
As a visual reminder, a speed symbol (shown left) is positioned just below the
speed dial to indicate the low and high positions of the speed dial.
CAUTION: It is the responsibility of the wheelchair manufacturer to inform
the wheelchair user about the wheelchair’s stopping distances.
The Horn:
The Horn button is located above the Power button. Press the Horn
button to sound the horn. The horn will sound for as long as the
Horn button is pressed.
