TRANSFERS Transferring onto and off of your Jazzy 1103 requires a good sense of balance. Be sure to have an attendant or health care professional present while learning to properly transfer yourself. To eliminate the possibility of injury, we ask that you verify the following before attempting a transfer: 1.
When moving down an incline, do so slowly and in the forward direction only. If your Jazzy 1103 starts to move faster than you anticipated, allow the unit to come to a complete stop by releasing the joystick. Then push the joystick forward slightly and continue traveling down the incline.
(optional), a connector housing, and all wiring harnesses. See figure 1 below and figures 2 and 3.

2. Turn them outward to engage the drive motors. 3. Turn them inward to disengage the drive motors. If the lever is difficult to move in either direction, slightly rock the Jazzy 1103 back and forth. The lever should then move to the desired position.
3. Insert the 3-pin charger lead plug into the joystick programming port located at the front of the Jazzy’s joystick controller. See figure 4. 4. Extend the charger power lead and plug it into the wall outlet. The Jazzy 1103 incorporates an inhibit function that disables the powered wheelchair when the charger is plugged into a wall outlet.

Daily Use If you use your Jazzy 1103 on a daily basis, charge the batteries as soon as you are finished using it for the day. Your Jazzy 1103 will be ready each morning to give you a full day’s service. We recommend that you charge the batteries 8 to 14 hours after daily use.
Page 14
If you do not plan on using your Jazzy 1103 for an extended period, fully charge the batteries prior to storage. Disconnect the battery harnesses and store the Jazzy in a warm, dry environment. Avoid temperature extremes, such as freezing conditions and excessively hot conditions, and never attempt to charge a frozen battery.
O P E R A T I O N NOTE: If you are storing a Jazzy 1103 for an extended period of time, you may wish to block the unit up off the ground with several boards under the frame. This will keep the tyres off the ground and prevent the possibility of flat spots developing.

Jazzy 1103 responds to joystick commands in a more lively fashion. NOTE : We recommend that the first few times you operate your Jazzy 1103 that you turn the speed and response knob completely counterclockwise to allow you to become familiar with your new Jazzy 1103.

THERMAL ROLLBACK Both Jazzy 1103 controllers are equipped with a thermal rollback circuit. This circuit monitors the temperature of the motors and the controller. In the event that the motors or controller become excessively hot (above 50°C/ 122°F), the controller reduces the motor voltage.

Unless the joystick is damaged, this action should stop your power chair. Keypad The keypad is located in front of the joystick. It contains keys necessary to operate your Jazzy. See figure 7. www.pridemobility.com UK Jazzy 1103/Rev D/Sep02...

The speed/profile setting is displayed on the maximum speed/profile indicator. If your power chair was programmed with a drive profile, contact your autho- rised Pride provider for more information. UK Jazzy 1103/Rev D/Sep02 www.pridemobility.com...

This reduces your power chair’s “power,” which could also reduce your power chair’s speed, and allows the electrical components and motors to cool down. When the temperature returns to a safe level, your power chair resumes its normal operation. www.pridemobility.com UK Jazzy 1103/Rev D/Sep02...

The parking brakes have a bad connection. Check the parking brake and motor connections. Make sure the controller connections are secure. An excessive voltage has been applied to the controller. This is usually caused by a poor battery connection. Check the battery connections. UK Jazzy 1103/Rev D/Sep02 www.pridemobility.com...

FOOTREST DEPTH The Jazzy 1103 uses a ball detent pin to fasten it to the power base. For your convenience, Pride also supplies a hex head bolt and Nylock nut. You can use this bolt and nut instead of the ball detent pin, for a more permanent fit.

The anti-tip wheels are preset at the factory to a height of 1.25 cm off the ground. This is the ideal setting for most Jazzy 1103 users.
4. Remove the seat. 5. Lift the body shroud straight up. It should lift up easily. 6. Be sure to reengage the drive motors. BATTERY REMOVAL To remove the batteries, see VIII, “Care and Maintenance.” www.pridemobility.com UK Jazzy 1103/Rev D/Sep02...
1. Dry your Jazzy 1103 as much as possible with a dry towel. 2. Allow your Jazzy 1103 to sit in a warm, dry place for 24 hours to allow unseen water to evaporate. 3. Perform all safety and operational tests before using your Jazzy again.
2. After 1 second, check the battery gauge. Make sure that it remains on. 3. Slowly push the joystick forward until you hear the electric brakes click. 4. Repeat this test three times, pushing the joystick backwards, left, and right. www.pridemobility.com UK Jazzy 1103/Rev D/Sep02...
TYRES AND TUBES If your Jazzy 1103 is equipped with pneumatic tyres, you should check the air pressure at least once a week. This prolongs the life of your tyres as well as helps ensure the perfect operation of your chair. If you have a flat tyre, replace the tube.
6. Remove the 1/2-in. nuts and bolts that fasten the battery cables to the battery. 7. Install the new batteries into the Jazzy 1103 with the terminal sides of the batteries inward facing each other. 8. Connect the wire marked (+) to the closest positive (red) battery terminal.
