Operating the bath tub lifter
6.1 Hand control
The bath tub lifter is operated solely with the hand
control (Figure 15,4).
Only press the buttons on the hand control when
the backrest is properly mounted on the seat unit.
If the battery in the hand control is no longer suffi-
ciently charged, the red LED (Figure 15,2) lights up
when the Down button (Figure 15,5) is pressed.
The seat can no longer be lowered. It is still possi-
ble to lift it into the exit position. After lifting the
chair, charge the battery in the hand control.
6.2 Raising the seat
NOTICE
Make sure that the seat does not hit
anything.
1. Press the Up button (Figure 15,3). When the
seat is fully lowered, the backrest first swivels
into the upright position. The seat then moves
up.
2. To stop the seat in any position: Release the
Up button.
3. To raise the seat to the exit position: Keep the
Up button pressed until the exit position is
reached.
6.3 Lowering the seat
NOTICE
Make sure that the seat does not hit
anything.
1. Press the Down button (Figure 15,5). The seat
moves down.
2. To stop the seat in any position: Release the
Down button.
3. To fully lower the seat: Keep the Down button
pressed. When the seat is fully lowered, the
backrest swivels back into a maximum incline
of 40°.
6.4 EMERGENCY STOP function
1. If the seat does not stop as soon as the Up
button (Figure 15,3) or the Down button
(Figure 15,5) is released:
Press the EMERGENCY STOP button (Fig-
ure 15,1) or disconnect the plug connection
(Figure 14,1) from hand control to drive. The
seat's movement is stopped immediately.
If the EMERGENCY STOP button is pressed while
the seat is being lowered, the Down button is then
blocked for approximately 15 seconds for safety
reasons. The seat can then only be moved up
(with the Up button).

Bathing
WARNING
If the seat cannot move unhindered
and if the sideflaps are not in proper contact with
edge of the bath tub when entering, there is a dan-
ger of slipping. Before bathing, check that the bath
tub lifted is working properly. Before entering,
make sure that the sideflaps are in proper contact
with the edge of the bath tub.
NOTICE
Adding too much bathing salt or bathing
oil can impair the smooth movement of the lifting
scissors. Follow the manufacturer's dosage rec-
ommendations when using bathing salts or bathing
oils.
1. Lift the seat with the Up button (Figure 15,3)
sufficiently high for the sideflaps (Figures 16,1
and 2) to be flat on the edge of the bath tub.
2. Run the bath water and test the water temper-
ature.
3. Sit on the front sideflap (Figure 16,1). Your
back is facing the opposite sideflap
(Figure 16,2).
4. Slide to the middle of the seat section and turn
into the correct seating position. To do this,
first lift one leg and then the other one over the
edge of the bath tub. If necessary, use a turn-
table or a turntable/transfer aid (accessories).
5. Press the Down button (Figure 15,5) until the
desired position is reached (see Section 6.3).
6. After bathing: Press the Up button
(Figure 15,3) until the exit position is reached
(the sideflaps are flat against the edge of the
bath tub).
