to take a bath.

not perform any makeshift repairs or modifica-
tions. Repair work has to be carried out by aut-

• Before transporting the bathlift please make
sure that the hand control is disconnected.
• If the lift has been exposed to low tempe-
ratures for a long period of time (e.g. pro-
longed storage in a vehicle during winter),
allow it to warm up to room temperature
before using it, so as to avoid damage.
• When using bath oils or salts, please observe
the recommended dosage – such additives
may affect the gliding behaviour of the crossbar
mechanism.
• Do not use any acetic acid cleaners or deter-
gents for cleaning the Bellavita !

or store it in the vicinity of fire or strong heat
