Maintenance of the bathlift
The Bellavita is equipped with maintenance-free
bearings and does not need any lubrication.
A periodic maintenance check of the bathlift has
to be conducted at least every 12 months. This
check includes a visual inspection of all parts in
particular load-bearing parts. It also includes all
the necessary function tests. If the inspection re-
veals any defects, wear or other signs of dama-
ge, which might affect the safety of the bathlift,
the bathlift has to be made inoperative until the
defects are remedied. All inspections have to be
carried out by qualified and trained personnel who
have sufficient skills and practical experience to
perform such safety-relevant work in an approp-
riate manner. These qualified personnel have to
remain independent with regard to the tests and
inspections being carried out.
Please ask your bathlift specialist to arrange for
periodic inspections.
Your bathlift specialist has the necessary spare
parts lists and documentation available for you.
Please have repair work carried out by autho rised
specialist dealers only.
¢
Attention: The hand control must only be
opened by the bathlift manufacturer!
W
Cleaning
To keep the bathlift in a perfect condition it must
be cleaned immediately after use (preferably by
showering it with hot water).
Carefully clean the bathlift under the shower after
each use.
To clean the bathlift (without covers), please use
commercial disinfectants or bath cleansers.

Assembly of new cushion plugs for
the bathlift covers
First guide the new cushion plug through the
opening in the cushion (from top to bottom); then
press it into the washer at the underside.
W
Maintenance of seat covers
The material of the removable covers is very
hygienic due to its smooth surface and antibacte-
rial properties.
The maintenance of the covers requires regular
cleaning, either by hand or in the washing machi-
ne at 60°C (140° F). Please use a non-bio deter-
gent without any enzyme additives. Please note
that bath oils or other additives containing oils
may lead to discoloration of the covers.
Discoloration can also occur if the covers are not
cleaned regularly.
¢
Note: Discolorations of the covers are
caused by normal wear and are excluded
from the warranty.
• The covers can be removed very easily for clea-
ning.
•
Do not dry the covers in the tumble dryer,
but hang them on a line to dry.
• In addition, the use of a commercial disinfectant
is recommended.
• Please observe the manufacturer’s instructions!
