Operation

6.1

Control

Important!
●
Only use the battery supplied.
●
If the battery does not have enough charge,
the red battery pilot light goes on (2,
fig. 13). In this case, the lowering function is
disabled. However, you can still raise the
lift. Recharge the battery immediately after
you have raised it.
● The hand control device may only be used
when the backrest is properly mounted and
in upright position.
● If you let go of the button, the lift stops in-
stantly in its position.
You use the hand control (fig. 13) for controlling the
bathlift.
6.1.1

Lifting

Important!
If the backrest is folded down, it first moves to
the upright position.
Press the UP button (3, fig. 13) on the hand control (4,
fig. 13).
The backrest moves to the upright position, or the seat
moves up.
6.1.2

Lowering

Important!
If the seat is already lowered, the backrest
leans backwards.
Press the DOWN button (5, fig. 13) on the hand control
(4, fig. 13).
The seat moves downwards, or the backrest moves
back.
6.1.3

Emergency stop

Important!
Only press the red emergency stop button in
the case of an emergency.
In an emergency situation, such as if the UP or DOWN
button is jammed, press the emergency stop button (1,
fig. 13).
The bathlift stops moving immediately.
On letting go of the emergency stop button and after
having repaired the fault if this is the case, the bathlift
is ready for use again.

Using the bathlift

CAUTION!
The seat may slip if the suction cups do not
adhere properly.
Before you use the bathlift, make sure that it
is securely positioned and cannot tip over,
and that the spindle foot is sitting properly in
the spindle foot retainer.
Important!
●
Before you take a bath, do a test run* to
make sure that the bathlift functions proper-
ly.
●
Before using the bathlift, check the temper-
ature of the bath water.
Section 5.3 describes how to set up the bathlift in the
bathtub.
1. Raise the seat until it is level with the edge of the
bath by pressing the UP button (3, fig. 13).
The sideflaps should be level and rest on the edge of
the bathtub.
2. Fill the bath with water and check the tempera-
ture.
3. Sit down on the sideflap nearest to you as you
would sit down on a chair.
4. Slide backwards until you are sitting in the middle
of the seat.
5. Turn yourself so that you can be comfortably low-
ered into the water. Lift one leg after the other over
the edge of the bathtub.
6. Once you are sitting correctly, press the DOWN
button (5, fig. 13) to lower the seat into the water.
Once the seat has reached its lowest position, you can
tilt the backrest back, so that you can lean back deep-
er in the water.
7. Keep pressing the DOWN button until the back-
rest is at the right position.
To get out of the bath, follow the above steps in re-
verse order.
To lift the seat, press the UP button (3, fig. 13).
8. Take the battery out of the guide and recharge it
as described in section 5.1 or remove the bathlift
as described in section 5.4.
* Run the bathlift unloaded once to the top and then
back to the bottom.
