2. Changing seat height and tilt angle
Normal up/down; Rapid up/down. NOTE! The seat has a soft start for
around 5 sec. before the correct speed is achieved. Make sure the footrest
does not touch the floor when the seat is at lower levels – this can happen if
the footrest is set for a tall user.
Tilting forwards/rearwards: The chair can be tilted 5 degrees forwards*
and 30 degrees rearwards. When tilting, the chair will always stop at the
horizontal position. Thus to continue tilting forwards or rearwards, the
forwards/rearwards button must be pressed again. When tilting forwards,
make sure the footrest does not touch the floor or frame – this can happen if
the footrest is set for a tall user.
(*In certain markets, the chair can be tilted further to 6 degrees forwards.
Note: Crush risk if this is done.).
Emergency lowering: if battery charge is insufficient for chair
operation or if the proximity sensor on the height adjustment
actuator is defective, the Emergency lowering button must be used.
Upon activation, the chair will revert to the horizontal position and
then to the lowest seat height. Exercise caution when activating as
the system safety sensors are bypassed. In particular, make sure the
chair proceeds evenly to its minimum height to prevent skewing.
Service indicator – the lamp will flash at 4 sec. intervals when actual
operating time reaches 11 months from the last reset. After 12 months, the
lamp will remain on. This indicates the need for scheduled maintenance
(page 8). Resetting the service indicator – see technical manual.
Battery indicator – shows current battery status; 3 bars indicate full charge.
When a single bar shows, the chair should be charged that same day.
When a red bar shows, stop using the chair and charge the battery. Make
a habit of always charging the battery if at the end of the day it has dropped
to level 1 (one green bar on the battery indicator). If the hygiene chair will not
be used for a few days, we recommend switching off the battery by means
of the Off button located on the battery.
NOTE: The battery can be damaged if not charged at least every 14 days in
the On position or at least every three months in the Off position.
The remote control enters sleep mode 30 sec. after the last activation.
