Options 

5.1  Powered Swivel Seat 

To sit onto a powered seat at the top of the stairs move the Stairlift to face 
you by operating the remote control 

Ï

 button. Sit in the seat and fasten 

the seatbelt then press the Direction Controller to move the Stairlift down.  
The seat will swivel to its operating position and move down the stairs.  
 
To get off a powered seat when the Stairlift is at the top of the stairs 
continue to hold down the Direction Controller (

1

).  After the Stairlift stops 

moving, the seat will swivel round automatically. Switch the Stairlift off 
using the On/Off Holding Switch (

2

) on the arm rest. It is now safe to undo 

the seat belt and alight from the Stairlift. 
 

 
 

The Stairlift can be called to the bottom of the stairs by using the remote control 

Ð

 button. 

5.2  Remote Direction Controls 

The Stairlift must be in its correct operating condition, with the seat 
facing forward and switched on with the On/Off Holding Switch, before 
remote controls can be used. These controls can be used to call the 
Stairlift and operate hinged rails or platforms when fitted.  Press the 

Ï

 

or 

Ð

 buttons continuously until the Stairlift stops at the end of its travel. 

Do not leave the Stairlift parked part way up the stairs because the 
batteries will not be re-charged in this position 
 
Should the user not be able to easily operate the direction controller on 
the end of the seat arm, they can carry the hand held remote control 
with them whilst travelling on the lift, and operate the lift independently 
of the arm control. 

5.3  Remote Controls with Auto- Parking 

The direction controls operate as described above. The arm rests and 
seat must be folded manually prior to operating the Autopark feature.  
Press and hold the Autopark button (

A

) continuously to send the Stairlift 

to its charge point and operate any powered hinge or platform options.
