20 EN
6.7 Use
When using the commode, observe the following safe-
ty rules:
6.7.1 Folding the arm rests
6.7.2 Folding the footrests
Position for getting in and out:
1. Push the footrest slightly up along the guide until
the groove (5, fig. 5) no longer catches the pin of
the clip (8, fig. 5).
2. Fold the footrest to the side.
Driving position:
1. Turn the footrests inwards.
2. Push down the footrest until the groove (5, fig. 5)
catches the pin of the clip (8, fig. 5).
6.7.3 Controlling
Controlling is done using the hand control (fig. 12).
Tilting the seat frame with the backrest:
The seat frame can be tilted 35° backward and ca. 5°
forward.
Press the back button (7, fig. 12) or the forward button
(3, fig. 12) on the hand control (1, fig. 12).
The seat frame tilts backward or forward (1, fig. 13).
CAUTION!
●Seat surface may slip if loose
Check whether the seat surface is firmly
secured to the seat frame before use.
●Slipping caused by the chair rolling
Lock the casters using the red foot ped-
als before getting into or out of the chair.
Rolling away
Lock the casters with the red foot pedals in
parked position.
Tipping over
●Push the footrests to the sides or fold up
the foot plates before getting into or out
of the chair.
●Swivel the front casters so that the lock
is pointing forwards before getting into or
out of the chair.
●Do not stand on the footrests.
●Never remove the spindle drives.
Risk of breakage during transport
Use only the handle on the backrest to steer
or push the commode, never the head sup-
port.
CAUTION!
Risk of catching due to folding mechanism
●When folding down the armrests, do not
reach into the joint, and make sure that
no parts become jammed.
●When folding up the armrests, do not
reach between the armrest and the
backrest.
CAUTION!
Loose footrests can be dangerous
Fix the footrests in the driving position.
Important!
●If the rechargeable battery in the battery
box no longer has enough charge, the indi-
cator lamp (4, fig. 12) on the hand control
(1, fig. 12) glows yellow and beeps when
the chair is moving. After the indicator lamp
lights up, five movement cycles are still
possible. After that, the device's lifting func-
tion is disabled. However, you can still low-
er the lift. Recharge the battery immediately
after you have lowered it.
●If you let go of the button, the device stops
instantly in its position.
●For safety reasons, the drive mechanisms
have cut-off zones:
Seat height Tilt adjustment
500 to 600 mm Up to 5° forward
To 35° backward
Over 600 mm Not forward
To 35° backward
CAUTION!
Risk of catching
When adjusting the tilt, do not reach be-
tween the seat frame and the front tubular
framework of the frame.
Important!
●When the seat frame is tilted forward, the
seat height can be set at a maximum of
600 mm.
●If the seat height is set at a height greater
than 600 mm, the seat frame can no longer
be tilted forward.
