Intended use / For your safety
■ Intended use
Bathing system for bathing patients with restricted mobility in
care institutes and hospital wards. It is operated by healthcare
professionals. The possible height adjustment provides an ergo-
nomic working environment for the personnel and helps keeping
their spines healthy.
■ For your safety
 Ensure that this bathing system is operated and maintained
only by trained personnel.
 Always check the water temperature with your bare hand (also
when using the shower) before bringing the water in contact
with the patient.
 Ensure that each client is assessed for its ambulatory capa-
bility, ensuring the client’s safety when entering and exiting
the bathing system (utilize handgrips, correct entry height,
correct client transferring device, etc.).
 Never leave the patient unattended inside the bathtub.
 Ensure that the equipment is thoroughly cleaned after every
use.
 When using disinfection, protect your skin and eyes. Heed all
instructions on the disinfectant’s container and material
safety data sheet.
 Always make sure that the device is supplied with power. It
may only be interrupted in emergency situations.
 Ensure that there are no objects right next to the tub to en-
sure a safe up and down movement. Disregarding this instruc-
tion can cause bad injuries or damage the device.
 Don’t place any objects on top of the device, since due to
movement or vibrations, they can fall off - also into the tub.
 Adjustments and repairs must be carried out by authorized and
appropriately qualified persons only.
Caution: The safety rules and instructions in this operating
manual must be observed in order to ensure safe and
proper use of the equipment. All claims under guaran-
tee become void if these requirements are not met.

Functions
■ Functions
How the control panel works
Generally we can say that a lit button signals the availability of
the corresponding function (with the exception of Sound & Vision -
for details see the corresponding chapter). When you press the
button you activate its function and the light starts flashing. To
stop the function, just press the button again. When there is no
backlight behind the button, then the function is not available at
the moment (for instance: disinfection is not available when the
tub is full).
Standby mode
If the tub is empty and for 10 minutes no function is activated
(or in case that the main switch of the bathtub has been switched
on), then the bathtub goes into standby mode. In this mode all
functions are deactivated (with the exception of Sound & Vision,
which gets “frozen” in the state which it is in at that moment)
and locked. Only the sensor “ACTIVATION CARD” is illuminated with
a green backlight.
The standby mode a) prevents unauthorized use of the bathtub and
b) helps to save energy since due to the deactivation of almost
all functions the bathtub uses less electricity.
In order to return to normal mode, please, use the activation card
(see next subchapter).
Activation card
To use the tub again when in standby mode, gently
swipe the magnetic activation card over the green
backlit sensor “ACTIVATION CARD”. After 12 seconds
the device should return back to normal mode.
Note: Optionally you can also reactivate the bathtub without
the activation card. This option can be set in program
mode. If it has been turned on, then you can reacti-
vate the bathtub by pressing any button. (In case that
the function behind the pressed button is available,
it will also get activated immediately, e.g. raising
and lowering.) This means that with this option turned
on, the standby mode only helps to save energy but
does not prevent unauthorized use of the bathtub.

Raising and lowering the tub
The “UP” and “DOWN” buttons are used to raise or lower
the tub. The movement continues until the button is
released again. In the upper and lower end positions
the tub stops automatically. In the event of power
failure the bathtub can only be lowered, which is pow-
ered by the emergency battery. The movement is a bit
slower in this case than usual. Additionally the sym-
bol “MISSING POWER SUPPLY” is illuminated.
Opening & Closing the drain
In order to close the drain, ensure that the drain
plug is in place. Then turn the chromed overflow
clockwise. In order to open it, turn the overflow
counter-clockwise. (It is not necessary to remove the
drain plug.)
Filling the tub
When you press the button “TUB FILL” the tub starts
filling. The button starts flashing and the symbol
“TUB FILL TEMPERATURE” lights up. The water now flows
into the bathtub until the maximum filling level has
been reached or the button is pressed a second time.
When the bathtub is filled to the maximum level, then
the button will be darkened and disabled until the
recognized filling level drops again under the maxi-
mum. In case you want to add more water after auto-
matic deactivation, you can do so by means of the hand
shower.
Shower
The shower can be used at any time (except during cer-
tain parts of the disinfection procedure). To do so,
simply take the white hand shower from its holder and
press the button “SHOWER”. The button starts flashing
and the symbol “SHOWER TEMPERATURE” lights up. Press
and hold the trigger on the hand shower’s handle to
begin showering. When you press the button “SHOWER”
again, the shower is deactivated.

Functions
Setting the temperature
You can set the temperature for tub fill and shower
continuously. To do that, turn the knob of the mixing
valve to the desired position. The used temperature
will be shown in the temperature display.
Note: For safety reasons the temperature is mechanically
limited to 38 °C (standard mixer). To override this
security appliance, press the button on the knob. Thus
it is possible to turn the knob further and set a
higher temperature.
Caution: When setting the temperature to a value above 38 °C,
set it back to 38 °C or lower as soon as possible! In
the meantime, while the temperature is overridden, use
extreme caution with the hot water.
Temperature display tub fill & shower
This display shows the current tub fill respectively
shower temperature when they are in use. If the tub
fill is active, the symbol “TUB FILL TEMPERATURE” is
illuminated additionally to the flashing button “TUB
FILL”. If the shower is active, the symbol “SHOWER
TEMPERATURE” is illuminated additionally to the flash
ing button “SHOWER”. If tub fill and the shower are
active at the same time, both will have the same tem-
perature since there is only one mixing valve. If none
of these two functions are active, then the display
remains empty.
Caution: Always check the water temperature with your bare hand
(also when using the shower) before bringing the water
in contact with the patient.
Note: The symbols next to the temperature display only serve
as status indicators. You cannot activate any func-
tions with these.
Underwater light
The underwater light, if installed (being an alterna-
tive to the “Vision” function), can be used at any
time. By pressing the illuminated button the underwa-
ter light is switched on and the button starts flash-
ing. The underwater light slowly changes between 7
colours. (It cannot be fixed to one colour.) By press-
ing the button again the underwater light is switched
off.
