II. SAFETY
GENERAL GUIDELINES
MANDATORY! Do not operate your new power chair for the first time without completely reading
and understanding this owner’s manual.
Your power chair is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement device designed to increase mobility. Pride provides an
extensive variety of products to best fit the individual needs of the power chair user. Please be aware that the final
selection and purchasing decision regarding the type of power chair to be used is the responsibility of the power
chair user, who is capable of making such a decision, and his/her healthcare professional (i.e., medical doctor,
physical therapist, etc.).
The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility device expert has properly fitted the
power chair to the user and has assisted the prescribing healthcare professional and/or the Quantum Rehab Pro-
vider in the instruction process for the use of the product.
There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the power chair user will need to practice
operating the power chair in the presence of a trained attendant. A trained attendant can be defined as a family
member or care professional specially trained in assisting a power chair user in various daily living activities.
As you begin using your power chair during daily activities, you will probably encounter situations in which you
will need some practice. Simply take your time and you will soon be in full and confident control as you maneuver
through doorways, on and off of elevators, up and down ramps, and over moderate terrain.
Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will help you become accustomed to oper-
ating your power chair safely.
Pre-Ride Safety Check
Get to know the feel of your power chair and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety check
before each use to make sure your power chair operates smoothly and safely.
Perform the following inspections prior to using your power chair:
„ Check for proper tire inflation. Maintain but do not exceed the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on each
tire if equipped with pneumatic tires.
„ Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and not corroded.
„ Check all controller connections to the power base. Make sure they are secured properly.
„ Check the brakes. See VII. “Care and Maintenance.”
„ Check battery charge. See VI. “Batteries and Charging.”
„ Ensure the manual freewheel levers are in drive mode before sitting on the power chair.
NOTE: If you discover a problem, contact your Quantum Rehab Provider for assistance.

Electrical Components
The electrical components consist of the controller assembly, the batteries, and the motors. The batteries, motors,
and controller power module (if equipped) are located on the power base assembly. The controller is located on
the seat assembly. Connectivity between the controller and the motors, batteries, and the battery charger is pro-
vided by one or more wiring harnesses. See figure 3.
Controller Harness Connector: The controller harness connector is where the controller plugs into the power
base. Each controller uses a different type of harness. Regardless of which type of controller is used, the harness
must be secured to the seat assembly and not allowed to drag on the floor.
Motor Connectors: This is where the controller connects to the motors.
Battery Connector: This is where the controller connects to the batteries.
Controller Power Module: This enables the controller to communicate with the batteries and the motors.

Main Circuit Breaker (located on the rear main frame): The main circuit breaker is a safety feature built into
your power chair. When the batteries and the motors are heavily strained (e.g., from excessive loads), the main
circuit breaker trips to prevent damage to the motors and the electronics. If the circuit trips, allow your power chair
to “rest” for approximately one minute. Next, push in the circuit breaker button, turn on the controller, and con-
tinue normal operation. If the main circuit breaker continues to trip repeatedly, contact your Quantum Rehab
Provider.

V I. B A TTER IES A ND C H A R G ING
BATTERIES AND CHARGING
The Q6 Edge VA uses two long-lasting, 12-volt, deep-cycle batteries. These batteries are sealed and maintenance
free. Since they are sealed, there is no need to check the electrolyte (fluid) level. Deep-cycle batteries are designed
to handle a longer and deeper discharge. Though they are similar in appearance to automotive batteries, they are
not interchangeable. Automotive batteries are not designed to handle a long, deep discharge, and also are unsafe
for use in power chairs.
MANDATORY! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and
lead compounds. Wear goggles and gloves when handling batteries and wash hands
after handling.
WARNING! Contact your Quantum Rehab Provider if you have any questions
regarding the batteries in your power chair.
PROHIBITED! Always use two batteries of the exact same type, chemistry, and amp-
hour (Ah) capacity. Refer to specifications table in this manual and in the manual
supplied with the battery charger for recommended type and capacities.
The battery charger is essential in providing long life for your power chair batteries. It is designed to optimize
your power chair’s performance by charging the batteries safely, quickly, and easily.

5. When the batteries are fully charged, unplug the off-
board charger from the electrical outlet and then from
the controller.
Battery Break-in
To break in new batteries for maximum efficiency:
1. Fully recharge any new battery prior to its initial use. This brings the battery up to about 90% of its peak
performance level.
2. Operate your power chair throughout the house and yard. Move slowly at first, and do not travel too far until
you become accustomed to the controls and break in the batteries.
3. Give the batteries another full charge of at least 8 to 14 hours and operate your power chair again. The batteries
will now perform at over 90% of their potential.
4. After four or five charging cycles, the batteries will top off at 100% charge and last for an extended period.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How does the charger work?
The battery charger takes the standard electrical outlet voltage of 120 VAC (alternating current) and converts it
to 24 VDC (direct current). The power chair batteries use direct current to run your power chair. When the battery
voltage is low, the charger works harder to charge the battery. As the battery voltage approaches full charge, the
charger does not work as hard to complete the charging cycle. 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 power chair. 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).
NOTE: Your power chair’s charger will not operate after the batteries have been discharged to nearly zero
voltage. If this happens, call your Quantum Rehab 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 power chair all
day on a daily basis or you may not use it for weeks at a time.

V I. B A TTER IES A ND C H A R G ING
„ Daily Use
If you use your power chair on a daily basis, charge the batteries as soon as you are finished using your power
chair. Your power chair will be ready each morning to give you a full day’s service. It is recommended that
you charge the batteries at least 8 to 14 hours after daily use. Pride recommends that you charge the batteries
for an additional 4 hours after the battery charger indicates that charging is complete.
„ Infrequent Use
If you use your power chair infrequently (once a week or less), you should charge the batteries at least once
per week for at least 24 hours.
NOTE: Keep your batteries fully charged and avoid deeply discharging your batteries. Refer to the manual
supplied with the battery charger for charging instructions. Pride recommends charging your batteries for at
least 48 continuous hours once per month to improve battery performance and battery life.
How can I get maximum range or distance per charge?
Rarely do you have an ideal driving situation such as smooth, flat, hard terrain with no wind, hills, or curves. More
often you are presented with hills, sidewalk cracks, uneven and loosely packed surfaces, curves, and wind. All of
these factors will affect the distance or running time per battery charge. Below are a few suggestions for obtaining
the maximum range per charge:
„ Always charge the batteries fully prior to your trip.
„ Plan your trip in advance to avoid inclines if possible.
„ Limit baggage weight to essential items.
„ Try to maintain an even speed and avoid stop-and-go driving.
„ Pride recommends charging your batteries for at least 48 continuous hours once per month to improve battery
performance and battery life.
What type of batteries should I use?
We recommend deep-cycle batteries that are sealed and maintenance free. Both AGM and Gel-Cell are deep-cycle
batteries that are similar in performance. Refer to the specifications table for more information regarding the
batteries used with your power chair.
WARNING! Corrosive chemicals contained in batteries. Use only AGM or Gel-Cell
batteries to reduce the risk of leakage or explosive conditions.
Why do my new batteries seem weak?
Deep-cycle batteries employ a much different chemical technology than that used in car batteries, nickel-cadmium
(nicads), or in other common battery types. Deep-cycle batteries are specifically designed to provide power, drain
down their charge, and then accept a relatively quick recharge. AGM and Gel-Cell batteries should be charged as
often as possible. They do not have a “memory” like nickel-cadmium batteries.
We work closely with our battery manufacturer to provide a battery that best suits your power chair’s specific
demands. Fresh batteries arrive regularly at Pride and are promptly shipped with a full charge. During shipping,
the batteries encounter temperature extremes that may influence initial performance. Heat robs the charge from
the battery, and cold slows the power available and extends the time needed to recharge the battery (just as with
a car battery).
It might take a few days for the temperature of the battery to stabilize and adjust to its new ambient temperature.
More importantly, it will take a few “charging cycles” (a partial drain — then a full recharge) to establish the
critical chemical balance that is essential to the battery’s peak performance and long life. It will be well worth it
to take the time to break in your battery properly.

How can I ensure maximum battery life?
A fully charged deep-cycle battery will provide reliable performance and extended battery life. Keep your power
chair’s batteries fully charged whenever possible. Batteries that are regularly and deeply discharged, infrequently
charged, or stored without a full charge may be permanently damaged, causing unreliable power chair operation
and limited battery life.
NOTE: The useful life of a battery is quite often a reflection of the care it receives.
How should I store my power chair and its batteries?
If you do not use your power chair regularly, we recommend maintaining battery vitality by charging the batteries
at least once per week.
If you do not plan on using your power chair for an extended period, fully charge the batteries prior to storage.
Disconnect the battery harnesses and store the power chair in a warm, dry environment. Avoid temperature
extremes, such as freezing and excessively hot conditions, and never attempt to charge a frozen battery. A cold or
frozen battery should be warmed for several days prior to recharging.
What about public transportation?
AGM and Gel-Cell batteries are designed for application in power chairs and other mobility vehicles. These
batteries are Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved, allowing safe transportation on aircraft, buses, and
trains, as there is no danger of spillage or leakage. We suggest you contact the carrier’s ticket counter in advance
to determine that carrier’s specific requirements.
What about shipping?
If you wish to use a freight company to ship your power chair to your final destination, repack your power chair
in the original shipping container and ship the batteries in separate boxes.

VII. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your Q6 Edge VA is a sophisticated power chair. Like any motorized vehicle, it requires routine maintenance
checks. You can perform some of these checks, but others require assistance from your Quantum Rehab Provider.
Preventive maintenance is very important. If you follow the maintenance checks in this section as scheduled, you
can help ensure that your power chair gives you years of trouble-free operation. If you have any doubt as to your
power chair’s care or operation, contact your Quantum Rehab Provider.
WARNING! Do not service the power chair when the seat is occupied.
Your power chair, like most electrical equipment, is susceptible to damage from the elements. Avoid damp areas
of any kind.
WARNING! Direct or prolonged exposure to water or dampness could cause the power
chair to malfunction electronically and mechanically. Water can cause electrical
components to corrode and the chair's frame to rust. Power chairs should be examined
periodically for signs of corrosion caused by water exposure, bodily fluid exposure, or
incontinence. Damaged components should be replaced or treated immediately.
Should your power chair come in contact with water:
1. Dry your power chair as thoroughly as possible with a towel.
2. Allow your power chair to sit in a warm, dry place for 12 hours to allow unseen water to evaporate.
3. Check the joystick operation and the brakes before using your power chair again.
4. If any inconsistencies are found, take your power chair to a Quantum Rehab Provider. Power chairs that are
frequently exposed to sources of water, such as incontinence, should be inspected often for corrosion and
electronic components may need to be replaced frequently.
Temperature
„ Some of the parts of your power chair are susceptible to extreme changes in temperature. Always keep your
power chair between the temperatures of 18°F (-8°C) and 122°F (50°C).
„
In extremely cold temperatures the batteries may freeze. The specific temperature at which they freeze depends
on a number of factors, such as battery charge, usage, and composition of the batteries (e.g., AGM or Gel-Cell).
„ Temperatures above 122°F (50°C) may cause your power chair to operate at a reduced speed. This reduced
speed is a safety feature built into the controller that helps prevent damage to the motor and other electrical
components.
General Guidelines
„ Avoid knocking or bumping the controller, especially the joystick.
„ Avoid prolonged exposure of your power chair to extreme conditions, such as heat, cold, or moisture.
„ Keep the controller clean.
„ Check all connectors to ensure that they are all tight and secured properly.
„ Make sure pneumatic tires are inflated to the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on the tire.
WARNING! Make sure your tires are inflated to the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on the
tire for pneumatic tires. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires. Low pressure may result in
loss of control, and overinflated tires may burst. Overinflating tires can cause them to explode.
WARNING! Do not use a high pressure hose to inflate your tires.
„ Use a rubber conditioner on the tire sidewalls to help preserve them.
WARNING! Never use a rubber conditioner on the tread area of the tires; doing so may make the
tires slippery and cause your power chair to skid.
„ All wheel bearings are prelubricated and sealed. They require no subsequent lubrication.

VII. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
„ The body shroud has been sprayed with a clear sealant coating. You can apply a light coat of car wax to help
it retain its high-gloss appearance.
„ Check all electrical connections. Make sure they are tight and are not corroded. Batteries must sit flat within
the battery tray, with the battery terminals facing rearward. Refer to the battery wiring label for the correct
wiring layout.
WARNING! Even though the power chair has passed the necessary testing
requirements for ingress of liquids, you should keep electrical connections away
from sources of dampness, including direct exposure to water or bodily fluids and
incontinence. Check electrical components frequently for signs of corrosion and
replace as necessary.
Daily Checks
„ With the controller turned off, check the joystick. Make sure it is not bent or damaged and that it returns to the
neutral position when you release it. Check the rubber boot around the base of the joystick for damage. Visu-
ally inspect the boot. Do not handle or try to repair it. See your Quantum Rehab Provider if there is a problem.
„ Visually inspect the controller harness. Make sure that it is not frayed, cut, or has any wires exposed. See your
Quantum Rehab Provider if there is a problem.
„ Check for flat spots on solid tires. Flat spots could adversely affect stability.
„ Inspect the seating system, armrests, and front riggings for loose hardware, stress points, or damage. See your
Quantum Rehab Provider if there is a problem.
Weekly Checks
„ Disconnect and inspect the controller from the power base. Look for corrosion. Contact your Quantum Rehab
Provider if necessary.
„
Ensure that all parts of the controller system are securely fastened to your power chair. Do not overtighten any screws.
„ Check for proper tire inflation. Pneumatic tires should be inflated to the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indi-
cated on each tire. If a tire does not hold air, see your Quantum Rehab Provider for replacement of the tube.
„ Check the brakes. This test should be carried out on a level surface with at least 3 feet (1 meter) of clearance
around your power chair.
To check the brakes:
1. Turn on the controller and turn down the speed level of your power chair.
2. After one second, check the battery condition meter. Make sure that it remains on.
3. Slowly push the joystick forward until you hear the electric brakes click. Immediately release the joystick.
You must be able to hear each electrical brake operating within a few seconds of joystick movement. Repeat
this test three times, pushing the joystick backwards, then left, and then right.
Monthly Checks
„ Check for drive tire wear. See your Quantum Rehab Provider for repair.
„ Check the caster wheels for wear. Replace them as necessary.
„ Check the caster forks for damage or fluttering which indicates that they may need to be adjusted or have the
bearings replaced. See your Quantum Rehab Provider for repair.
„ Check the entire power chair for loose hardware and changes in the function or performance of the power
chair. See your Quantum Rehab Provider for service or repair.
„ Keep your power chair clean and free of foreign material, such as mud, dirt, hair, food, drink, etc.
„ Spring shocks and gas dampers should be visually checked for any abnormality, structure damage, or bent
rods. See your Quantum Rehab Provider for repair.
Yearly Checks
Take your power chair to your Quantum Rehab Provider for yearly maintenance, especially if you use your power chair
on a daily basis. This helps ensure that your power chair is functioning properly and helps prevent future complications.

VII. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Storage
Your power chair should be stored in a dry place, free from temperature extremes. When storing, disconnect the
batteries from the power chair. See VI. “Batteries and Charging.”
WARNING! If you fail to store the unit properly, the frame can rust and the electronics can be
damaged. Any corroded electronic connection should be replaced.
Batteries that are regularly and deeply discharged, infrequently charged, stored in extreme temperatures, or stored
without a full charge may be permanently damaged, causing unreliable performance and limited service life. It is
recommended that you charge the batteries periodically throughout periods of prolonged storage to ensure proper
performance.
You may wish to place several boards under the frame of your power chair to raise it off of the ground during
periods of prolonged storage. This takes the weight off the tires and reduces the possibility of flat spots developing
on the areas of the tires contacting the ground.
Disposal of Your Power Chair
Your power chair must be disposed of according to applicable local and national statutory regulations. Contact
your local waste disposal agency or Quantum Rehab Provider for information on proper disposal of power chair
packaging, metal frame components, plastic components, electronics, batteries, neoprene, silicone, and
polyurethane materials.
Cleaning and Disinfection
„ Use a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleanser to clean the plastic and metal parts of your power chair.
Avoid using products that may scratch the surface of your power chair.
„ If necessary, clean your product with an approved disinfectant. Make sure the disinfectant is safe for use on
your product before application.
WARNING! Follow all safety instructions for the proper use of the disinfectant and/or cleaning
agent before applying it to your product. Failure to comply may result in skin irritation or
premature deterioration of upholstery and/or power chair finishes.
WARNING! Never hose off your power chair or place it in direct contact with water. Your power
chair has a painted, ABS plastic body shroud that allows it to be easily wiped clean with a damp
cloth.
WARNING! Never use any chemicals to clean a vinyl seat, as they may cause the seat to become
slippery or dry out and crack. Use soapy water and dry the seat thoroughly.
Wheel Replacement
If you have pneumatic tires and you have a flat tire, you can replace the tube. If your chair is equipped with a solid
tire insert, then you must replace the entire wheel assembly. Replacement tires, tubes, and wheel assemblies are
readily available through your Quantum Rehab Provider.
WARNING! The wheels on your power chair should only be serviced or replaced by a Quantum
Rehab Provider or a qualified technician.
WARNING! Be sure that the controller’s power is turned off and the power chair is not in
freewheel mode before performing this procedure.
WARNING! When changing a tire, remove only the five lug nuts, then remove the wheel. If any
further disassembly is required, deflate the tire completely or it may explode.
