Safety Information

1.   This appliance is not intended for use by persons 

(including children) with severely reduced physical, 
sensory or mental capabilities, unless they are  
supervised by a person responsible for their safety 
or fully understand the hazards involved when 
using the product. 

   This appliance is not intended for use by children 

unless they are continually supervised.

   Children should not be allowed to play with, or 

undertake the cleaning and maintenance of the 
appliance.

2.   As a safety measure the blower unit will switch  

The cushion will no longer inflate even if the  
control unit UP button is continuously depressed. 
In the unlikely event of this failing air will  
automatically bleed back through the motor,  
thus ensuring over inflation does not occur.  
If the blower unit continues to operate for more 
than 20 second inflate the cushion has fully  
inflated, release the UP button and consult your 
dealer for advice.

3.   For your safety, ensure that in the event of an 

electricity power failure, or the unlikely event of 
product failure, that an alarm system or telephone 
are conveniently placed in close proximity. The 
unit will NOT operate should this occur during use, 
therefore, assistance may be required to leave the 
bath.

4.   Inflation and deflation can be interrupted at any 

time by releasing the appropriate button on the 
control unit. Please note that on inflation the UP 
button should be depressed until the blower unit 
stops automatically.

5.   There is no electrical connection in or to the  

hand control unit. This unit is therefore safe to 
be operated by either user or attendant with wet 
hands. The blower unit, however is connected to 
the mains electricity and should not be handled 
with wet hand unless disconnected from the  
electricity supply.

6.   Should the cushion slide even if the suckers and 

bath surface appear to be clean and dry please 
contact your supplier for advice.

7.   An alternative method of placing the cushion in 

inflate the cushion fully outside of the bath.  
Position the cushion square in the bath in line  

so that all 4 suckers make contact with the  
bottom flat part of the bath. Press down on  
the semi deflated cushion checking that all  
four suckers are attached by gently pulling  
on the cushion.
