packaging and covering materials have
been removed. Locate the chair on a flat,
stable surface.
WARNING: Ensure the mains cable is
not a trip hazard and that excess cable

use by children. Any children in the
vicinity must be supervised at all times.
WARNING: Before first use, the chair
should be tested to ensure that all
functions are working correctly.
WARNING: Exercise care when lowering

4.3 Duty Cycle / Safety Cut-out
The motors within the chair are not
designed for continuous operation. They
should only be used for 10% of the time (for

In the event that the motors overheat, or the
power limit of the motors is exceeded, a
safety device will cut out the power to the
motors and disable the chair’s activities.
If the chair does not restart after
approximately 20 minutes please contact
your A J Way representative, distributor or
A J Way Customer Services Team on
01494 471821.
