Match the black remote pictured below to your DX08 remote before following this guide.

What Each Control Does:

• Indicator light: Shows remote status. Alternating red and green flashing is used during Bluetooth reset and re-pairing.
• Joystick: Controls the wheelchair’s direction of movement.
• Power On/Off: Switches the remote on or off; also used with Speed Down for Bluetooth reset and re-pairing.
• Horn button: Sounds the wheelchair’s horn.
• Speed Up: Increases the wheelchair’s speed setting.
• Speed Down: Decreases the speed setting; also used with Power On/Off for Bluetooth reset and re-pairing.

Pair the remote before first use. Use an unoccupied wheelchair on firm, level ground, with a clear area around it.

Reset and Re-pair Bluetooth:

1. Power on the controller: Switch on the wheelchair’s main controller.
2. Use the remote’s buttons: Press and hold the remote’s Speed Down and Power On/Off buttons together until its indicator flashes red and green alternately to reset and re-pair Bluetooth. Use these buttons on the remote, not the main controller.
3. Check before moving: Allow pairing to complete according to the supplied instructions. Select a low speed, then gently test the joystick, speed buttons and horn while keeping the chair in sight. Alternating red and green flashing alone is not confirmation of a completed connection.

Become familiar with the remote before using it for everyday positioning. Keep the chair unoccupied and start at a low speed.

Test Gently:

• Prepare a clear space: Keep people, pets and belongings away from the chair’s path. Avoid slopes, drop-offs and traffic.
• Check the response: Gently test the joystick in each direction, along with the speed buttons and horn. Check that the chair stops as expected when you release the joystick.
• Keep it in sight: Remain close enough to supervise movement. If it does not respond as expected, stop using the remote and contact KERDOM.

A simple power or connection check may help. Do not use an undocumented reset or a different model’s pairing procedure.

Check These First:

• Remote batteries: Check that the included batteries are correctly installed and have power.
• Wheelchair controller: Confirm the main controller is powered on and the chair has battery power.
• Matching remote: Use the black remote supplied for your DX08. Do not apply the DX07 Pro X YT605 pairing steps.
• Try the pairing steps again: Use Speed Down and Power On/Off on the remote as described above. If pairing still fails or movement is unexpected, stop and contact support with your model and a photo of the remote.

Remote control is a supervised movement-control feature, not autonomous navigation or an obstacle-avoidance system.

Keep These in Mind:

• Choose a safe route: Check for obstacles and drop-offs, and use slow, controlled movements in tight spaces.
• Stay nearby: Keep the wheelchair in sight and remain close enough to supervise.
• Using it with a rider: Only use remote control with a seated rider as permitted by the supplied instructions and with the rider’s agreement.
• Folding: Do not assume the remote folds the DX08 automatically. Follow your wheelchair’s manual folding instructions.
