Setup
Follow these steps to connect your FREEMOTION P50 battery pack to your power reclining furniture:
- Prepare Furniture: Carefully tip your power reclining furniture over to easily access the motor and existing power connections underneath.
- Disconnect Existing Power: Locate where the recliner's motor connects to its existing transformer. For sofas or loveseats, the transformer is typically on an outer edge or the back frame. Disconnect the motor from the transformer. The connection is usually a two-prong, flat-round pin type.
- Connect Battery Pack: Connect the motor's power cable to the corresponding two-prong, flat-round pin connection on your FREEMOTION P50 battery pack.
- Position Furniture: Return your furniture to its upright position, ensuring the battery cable rests safely underneath and is not pinched.
- Secure Battery: Find a suitable location beneath your reclining furniture to rest the FREEMOTION P50 battery pack, ensuring it is stable and out of the way.

Maintenance
- To prolong battery life and ensure readiness, recharge the battery pack at least once every 6 months, even if not in regular use.
- Avoid completely draining the battery, as this can reduce its overall lifespan and performance.
- Keep the battery pack clean and free from dust and debris. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning.
- Store the battery pack in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.
Troubleshooting
- Recliner Not Responding: Check the battery charge level using the indicator lights on the battery pack. If low, connect the charger. Ensure all connections between the motor and the battery pack are secure.
- High-Pitched Alarm: A high-pitched alarm typically indicates that the battery pack is running low on charge and requires recharging. Connect the charger immediately.
- Battery Not Charging: Ensure the charger is properly connected to both the battery pack and a working wall outlet. Verify that the power cord is securely attached to the charger.
- Incompatible Furniture Features: If your furniture has USB ports, LED lights, or other power-drawing features, ensure they have a smart switch or ON/OFF switch to prevent continuous power drain. Without such a switch, the battery pack may drain quickly or not function correctly.
- Reduced Cycle Count: The number of cycles per charge can vary. Factors include the weight capacity of the furniture, the specific recliner mechanism, and any additional accessories drawing power.
