The battery charger takes the standard wall outlet voltage of 120 VAC alternating current and converts it to 24 VDC direct current The Jazzy 1100 batteries use direct current to run your powered wheelchair When the battery voltage is low the charger works harder to charge the battery This is why the charging ammeter initially reads 5 or more amps As the battery voltage approaches full charge the charger doesn t work as hard to complete the charging cycle This explains why the charging ammeter drops as it ap proaches a full charge When the battery is fully charged the amperage from the charger is nearly at zero This is how the charger maintains a charge but does not overcharge the battery Can I use a different battery charger You should use the charger supplied with the Jazzy 1100 It is the safest most efficient tool to charge the batteries We do not recommend using other types of chargers e g an automotive battery charger Your Jazzy 1100 s charger will not operate after the batteries have been discharged to nearly zero voltage If this happens call your local authorized provider for assistance How often must I charge the batteries Many factors come into play when deciding how often to charge the batteries You may use your Jazzy 1100 all day on a daily basis or you may not use it for weeks at a time m Daily Use If you use your Jazzy 1100 on a daily basis charge the batteries as soon as you are finished Your Jazzy 1100
