Alante DX/LT Owner’s Manual Rev A_011811

VII. OPERATION

The Joystick
The joystick (see Figure 9 on page 16) controls the speed (up to the maximum limit set by
the speed control buttons) and direction of your power chair.

NOTE: When you are not pushing on the joystick, or when you release the joystick, the
joystick will automatically return to the neutral position, the chair will decelerate, as the
electromagnetic brakes are applied, and come to a smooth stop.

Pushing the joystick away from the neutral (center) position will move your Alante DX/LT ™
in the direction that the joystick is pushed.

♦ The farther forward or backward you push the joystick, the faster your power chair will
go.

To operate your power chair, gently push the joystick in the direction in which you
want to travel.

♦ Gentle operation of the joystick will provide you with smoother changes in speed and
direction.
♦ Sharp or jerky operation of the joystick will result in quick and drastic changes in

direction and speed.

The Joystick Display
The joystick display (see Figure 9 on page 16) is a multifunctional visual display. This

display provides three types of information.
1. On/Off status
2. Battery charge level
3. Fault diagnostics

1. On/Off Status
When you turn on the power to your Alante DX/LT ™, the LED array will light up (see
Figure 9 on page 16).

♦ If the LED array is not lit, the controller and the power chair are not in operating mode.
