Electronics Tray
The electronics tray is located on the back of the power base. See figures 3 and 4. The ammeter, the onboard charger AC power
cord, the main circuit breaker, the controller connector, and the charger fuse are all located on the electronics tray.
Ammeter: The ammeter displays the chargers current output in amps. See VI. Batteries and Charging.
Onboard Charger AC Power Cord: This is where the AC power cord plugs into the onboard charger.
Main Circuit Breaker: 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
reset button, turn on the controller, and continue normal operation. If the main circuit breaker continues to trip repeatedly,
contact your authorized Pride provider.
Controller Connector: This is where the controller connects to the power base. The Remote Plus and the Europa use small,
multi-pin communications cable connectors.
Charger Fuse: The charger fuse protects the ammeter from current overload. There are three fuses on the utility tray. The
top one is the charger fuse. The bottom two are spares.
Lighting System Connector (Not Shown): This is where the lighting system connects to the power base. Standard lighting
systems have a single pin connector. Full lighting systems use a 3-pin connector.
Active-Trac Suspension
Your Quantum Jazzy 1400 Series is equipped with Active-Trac Suspension (ATS). ATS is a system designed to make your
power chair traverse different types of terrain and obstacles while maintaining smooth operation. With ATS, your front anti-tip
wheels work in conjunction with your motor suspension to help you maneuver over obstacles in excess of two inches in height.
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your power chair climb or descend an obstacle that is higher than two
inches unless you have the assistance of an attendant.
As your front anti-tip wheels come in contact with an obstacle, the front anti-tip wheel assembly is drawn upward. At the same
time, your motors are forced downward. This allows the motors to push the power chair over an obstacle without the
possibility of becoming hung up.
ATS also helps in day-to-day operating conditions. For instance, when you release the joystick, your power chair begins to slow
down. As the chair slows down, the front anti-tip wheels will automatically drop toward the ground. This will reduce the
forward tip that is typically encountered with mid-wheel drive chairs.
