OM00220 220 Manual REV 2 110118
For safe recliner operation:
1.
Always
set all the caster brakes before allowing your occupant to get in or out of the chair.
Release the caster brakes
only
when the chair is being relocated; and reset the caster brakes
upon arriving at your destination. Never assume that the caster brakes have been set; check
to ensure that the caster brakes are engaged before helping anyone in or out of the recliner.
WARNING: DO NOT enter or exit the chair with the leg rest extended.
2.
Occupant should always enter (or exit) the recliner with the chair in the upright position.
3.
Once seated the occupant should sit fully back in the chair.
4.
To recline to the “TV” Position, the occupant should grip the top of the chair arms and apply
pressure to the chair arms and chair back to start the chair moving back. To move further to
thel Recline Position, continue to apply pressure backward. Note that it may be necessary that
the occupant reposition their grip on the arms, moving further back on the arm to move to the
Recline Position.
5.
Once in the full Recline Position, staff may use the Trendelenburg feature by stepping on the
pedal on either side of the chair and pressing downward on the back of the recliner. The
Trendelenburg pedals are located under the bottom of each arm. To return from
Trendelenburg, release pressure from the foot pedal and raise the back to the Recline Position.
The Trendelenburg pedal will automatically lock once tin the Recline Position. This prevents
the chair from going into Trendelenburg unexpectedly.
Staff assistance:
CAUTION: DO NOT “step” on the footrest to close the recliner. Doing so can
damage the recline mechanism.
WARNING:
When closing the leg rest by hand, make sure your hand is placed on
the top upholstered surface of the footboard only, not under the edges of the flip
board as this product has moving parts that may create pinch points. Keep all body
parts clear of the recline mechanism, latches, leg rest and other moving parts.
To assist an occupant in reclining the chair, simply apply backward pressure to the front of the
chair back pillow. This will start the recline motion and can be stopped in the desired position;
“TV” or Recline. To move the chair from a Reclined Position back to the Upright Position, apply
upward pressure to the back, from the rear, to start the chair moving upward.
CAUTION: This chair is NOT designed to transport occupants.
