POWER ELEVATING SEAT OPTION
Y
our Jazzy may be equipped with a power elevating seat actuator. See figure 20. This feature can enhance the
capabilities of the Jazzy in several ways:
n
By elevating the seat, your level of reach is extended, to allow more freedom and independence in many
environments.
n
You can easily adjust the Jazzys seat height to any surface to which you want to transfer. The seat swivels 90
degrees to whichever side the joystick is located.
n
By raising your seat, you are closer to the eye level of standing persons. This provides better interaction.
For all the benefits your elevating seat can provide you, there are limitations. The following precautions must be
observed in order to assure safe use of the Jazzy elevating seat option.
WARNING! The power elevating seat option is intended for use on a level surface only.
Never raise the seat from its lowest position on an inclined surface. Failure to heed this
warning can result in your Jazzy tipping over and causing injury.
WARNING! Never raise the seat from its lowest position when operating your Jazzy on
bumpy or uneven surfaces. Failure to heed this warning can result in your Jazzy tipping
over and causing injury.
WARNING! Never raise the power elevating seat when the chair is in freewheel mode.
WARNING! Always fasten the positioning belt when operating the power elevating seat. The
power elevating seat option is equipped with a system that reduces your Jazzys speed by one
half when the seat is elevated more than 1 2 inches. Always check to be sure this system is
operating properly before using your Jazzy.
