If the chair stops working and you have purchased either an Accupak or a 20 Cycle battery system
please refer to pages 8, 9 and 10. If you do not have either system then some simple checks you
might carry out are:
• CHECK
the green light on the transformer is on when it is plugged into the mains. If it isn’t then
the transformer is not working properly.
If it is on and the chair is not working, then:
• CHECK
the handset is not damaged.
If both these are okay then check the following, but ALWAYS DISCONNECT your
chair from the power source when doing the following checks.
• CHECK
the wall socket is in working order by trying another appliance.
• CHECK
to see if any cable connections have become disconnected.
• CHECK
to see if any of the cables are damaged or trapped. Damaged cables should be changed.
• DO NOT
open or attempt to open any electrical components as this could cause harm and to
do so may invalidate your warranty.
If the chair is still not working, then contact your supplier and ask them to check the chair
thoroughly.
Chair Stops working
– Basic Checks
It is
very important
that you locate the chair correctly to ensure that all of the features work
properly:
• Always ensure that there is enough space to recline fully and freely. There should be no objects
behind the chair that obstruct its movement and the back should never touch the wall.
• The leg rest should be able to move fully and freely with no objects to restrict this movement.
• Position the chair free from any trailing wires.
• Ensure the chair is within easy reach of a power point to charge or recharge the battery system.
Important note
• Obstructions may cause damage to the chair and its mechanism and
will invalidate your
warranty.

Weight Limits
The Lynton has features that could help with postural and pressure management.
Please ensure that you understand how these features can be used to benefit your client. We
always recommend that if you are setting up or operating the Lynton with clients that have medical
conditions that the features are used in line with recommended professional advice.
The Lynton comes with two maximum weight options:
Option 1 – Overall weight limit of 127 Kg (20 stone) / Leg rest weight limit 57 Kg (9 stone)
Option 2 – Overall weight limit of 159 Kg (25 stone) / Leg rest weight limit 57 Kg (9 stone)
Please note that there may be additional overall chair weight restrictions for certain types of seat
cushions – e.g. Dynaform (see page 49).
