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.
