THERMAL ROLLBACK
Your Compass

is equipped with a safety system. A microprocessor monitors the

operating temperatures of the controller. In the event of excessive heat occurring in the
controller, the controller will decrease the speed of your chair. This is done to reduce
the load on the electrical system and allow the components to dissipate heat. The
controller will automatically set the chair’s speed back to full normal when the
operating temperature returns to normal levels.

THE MAIN CIRCUIT BREAKER
The main circuit breaker is another safety feature incorporated into your Compass

.

This device monitors the amount of current being drawn from the batteries when the
chair is in use. When the motors are heavily strained and too high a current draw is
being placed on the batteries, the main circuit breaker will trip and bring your chair
to a stop.
