Simple solutions for everyday independence

3

• 

To ensure full stability when in use, make sure that the sides of the Bathing Cushion touch the 

sides of the bath when fully inflated.

• 

Remove any non slip mats from the area where the suction cups will be positioned.

• 

Ensure  that  any  oil  and  soap  residue  is  removed  from  the  Bathing  Cushion  and  bath.  Pay 

particular attention to the suction cups and floor of the bath. Ensure that  the suction cups 

adhere firmly to the bath before each use. The suction cups may not adhere to the surface in 

baths that have been re-enamelled or that have rippled or textured surfaces. Do not use if the 

suction cups do not adhere to the bath.

• 

ALWAYS INFLATE THE BATHING CUSHION AND USE THE BATHING CUSHION TO LOWER 

YOURSELF INTO THE BATH. This allows the micro processor in the Airflo to calculate the 

required battery power to raise the Bathing Cushion and if it calculates that there would be 

insufficient power, it will not allow the hand control to operate the down function.

• 

To maintain stability, DO NOT try to lower yourself into the bath or raise yourself from the 

bottom of the bath until you are IN AN UPRIGHT SEATED POSITION CENTRALLY AND RIGHT TO 

THE BACK OF THE SEAT SO THAT YOU ARE TOUCHING THE BACKREST (see figs. 6 & 9).

• 

To avoid the risk of electric shock, NEVER recharge the battery in the bathroom, outdoors or in 

a damp environment.

• 

Do not use any other air supply to inflate the Bathing Cushion.

• 

The suction cups contain Latex. Users with an allergy to Latex should take particular care to 

avoid prolonged contact with the suction cups. The suction cups are situated at the base of 

the seat and are not normally in direct contact with the user during use.

CAUTIONS (Risk  of possible problems including device malfunctions, device failure, 

damage to the device or damage to other property)

• 

Only recharge the battery with the Mangar International battery charger supplied with the 

Airflo compressor.

• 

To prevent damage, always release the suction under each suction cup before lifting the Bathing 

Cushion from the bath. Do not attempt to release the suction by pulling up on the seat, backrest 

or ‘handle’.

• 

Never use hot air to dry the Bathing Cushion following cleaning as this may affect the integrity 

of the welded seams and fabric and lead to premature failure of the cushion resulting in an 

inability of the cushion to raise you from the bath.

• 

Disconnect the Airflo compressor from the Bathing Cushion before transporting so as to avoid 

accidental inflation of the cushion.

• 

Do not use bath additives containing peanut oil as this can damage the suction cups. If such 

additives  have  been  used,  ensure  that  the  suction  cups  are  thoroughly  wash  and  rinsed  to 

remove residues.
