7. Installation
The BioStep 2 is shipped fully assembled and ready for use. Once you have removed the
BioStep 2 from its shipping container, simply roll the BioStep 2 to an appropriate site and
charge the battery.
If you have purchased the Optional Stabilization Kit containing hand and foot straps, a
seatbelt, and armrests, you will find instructions for installing the kit in this section.
Site Requirements
Site requirements for the BioStep 2 are listed below.
1. The site should have a level floor surface. However, if the surface is uneven, use a
1/2-inch, open-end wrench to adjust the Leveling Glides until they engage with the
floor.
!
CAUTION: Do not use the BioStep 2 unless it is both level and stable.
2. There must be sufficient free space around the BioStep 2 for easy user access and to
prevent injury to others standing or walking nearby. A minimum of two feet of free
space along the sides of the BioStep 2 and at least six inches of free space at the front
and rear of the BioStep 2 are recommended.
3. An appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with local
codes and ordinances must be positioned nearby. The BioStep 2 is shipped with an AC
line cord containing or including an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug for proper grounding of the product. In the unlikely event of a malfunction or
breakdown, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current.
DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or Biodex Customer Service if you are
in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not attempt to modify the
plug provided with the product. If the plug will not fit into the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
Charging the Internal Battery
Because the BioStep 2 is shipped without the internal battery charged, you must connect
the battery to an electrical outlet during the first 24 hours of use. Once the battery has
been charged, it will recharge automatically at work rates of 30 watts or more and speeds
of at least 50 rpm, so the power cord may be removed. In this mode, the battery operates
at low voltage (6 volts) and does not require grounding.
NOTE: Biodex recommend that you plug in the AC Adapter overnight to keep the
BioStep 2 battery charged to full capacity.
To charge the battery, follow the steps below:
1. Plug one end of AC Adapter Cord into AC Adapter Battery Recharge Jack located at
rear base of the BioStep 2.
2. Plug the other end of the cord into a properly installed and grounded outlet.
3. Be sure to keep the electrical cord away from heated surfaces and out of all travel
lanes.
