4.1.6 Pair the Bluetooth remote
Before continuing to mount the toilet lifter, it’s important to test the functionality of its travel. This is done by
pressing up or down on the remote control, then drive the full stroke. If the toilet lifter doesn’t react, it
means that the control must be paired to the lifter. This is done by following the steps listed below.
4.1.7 Unlock the handcontrol
The handcontrol will be unlocked when it is delivered, however, it’s possible to lock it accidentally,
preventing you from driving the lifter. This can occur due to repeated attempts of pairing. To unlock the
handcontrol, follow the listed procedure:
Note!
When pairing is complete, test product travel. Make sure all cables, water connection and
drain connection travel freely. The electrical connection shall travel unhindered and may
not get entangled in other installations.
Note!
If the control doesn’t drive after pairing, it means it needs to be unlocked. See 4.1.7!
1.
Stand within 2 meters of the toilet lifter, take the
hand control, and face it away from the lifter
2.
Hold the magnet key over its symbol, then hold
down the “Down” button (at least 3 seconds), until
the LED starts blinking
3.
Release the “Down” button, remove the magnet
key from the hand control, and move closer to the
toilet lifter, until the buzzer increases in frequency
4.
Press the “Down” button once. There should be
two beeps, this confirms pairing
1.
Take the handcontrol, then hold the magnet key
over its symbol
2.
While the magnet key is in this position, press the
”Down” button, then the ”Up” button
3.
If this doesn’t solve it, follow the pairing
procedure. Otherwise, it might not work due to
low battery, or if the lifter is unplugged from the
power
