Safeguards Before Operating the Stairlift

Ensure the stairway is clear of any obstructions.

Fasten your seat belt before operating the stairlift.

Check that the seat is locked in the riding position for up/down travel.
Operating the Stairlift
1
If the stairlift is not at the required end of the stairway, use one of the remote
control CALL/SEND units to call or send the stairlift to the appropriate end
of the rail. Be sure to point the remote at the lift.
2
If necessary, fold down the seat, armrests, and footrest.
3
Position yourself in the seat and fasten the seat belt.
4
Lift up and hold the seat swivel handle, and then rotate the seat so that you
are parallel to the rail (with your back against the stairway wall).
5
Release the seat swivel handle to secure the seat in the riding position.
6
Position both feet securely on the footrest and place your arms on the
armrest cushions.
7
Press and hold one end of the UP/DOWN rocker switch (located on the front
end of the right arm) to move the stairlift in the desired direction.
8
The stairlift will stop automatically at the upper or lower end of the rail, or
when the rocker switch is released.
9
Once the stairlift has come to a complete stop, swivel the seat as required,
unfasten the seat belt, and get out of the chair.
10
To allow for more room on the stairway, you can fold up the seat, armrests,
and footrest when the stairlift is not in use.
NOTE
Do not unplug the unit from the wall or the batteries will not
charge.
