Drive the wheelchair onto the platform and park it so that no part of the
passenger’s body or the wheelchair projects from the platform. Engage the
wheelchair brakes. If the wheelchair is electric, turn it off.
If using the folding seat, be sure to fasten the seat belt.

Lower the safety arm and the access ramp will lift up automatically.

To travel up or down the stairs:
•
Press either the
UP
or
DOWN
drive
button on the pendant control (shown in
Figure 8) to drive the lift to the desired
landing.
Note that the safety arms remain
down and the access ramps remain up in
the locked position as long as the lift is in
motion.
•
The lift will stop automatically at all
landings. If you keep the drive button
pressed at an intermediate stop, the lift
will stop briefly and then continue
travelling towards the next landing.
•
If you need to stop the lift along the
travel route for any reason, release the
drive button. If this does not work, press
the red emergency STOP button on the
platform control panel or the handheld pendant.

When the lift reaches the desired landing, it stops automatically.
15
Keep the drive button pressed until the safety arm is raised and the exit
ramp is lowered.
NOTE:
If there is an acoustic signal 5 seconds after releasing the drive
button, then the lift is probably not in the exact recharging position.
Reactivate the drive button to bring the lift to the exact position.

Turn off and remove the key from the platform key switch.
