2. Getting started
This section is primarily aimed at you as a user of the device. It describes how to prepare
the device for use, adjust the seat height, charge electric models, and how to create good
conditions when moving. For care instructions, see 3. Caring for the device.
If you have any questions about your device or if something unexpected has happened, please
first contact your prescriber or dealer. You can find up-to-date contact details in Section 1.1.
Contact details. You are also welcome to contact us at Mercado Medic.
2.1. Before use
All devices come with a seat, back support
or chest support and a brake. Upon delivery
from Mercado Medic, the back support, chest
support and brake lever are unattached.
These should always be fitted before the
device is first used.
Brake lever
For models with a brake lever, insert the
brake lever into brake-lever bracket (A) (see
Figure 2.1). The brake lever can be placed on
the right or left side. For models with a foot
brake, no installation is necessary.
Backrest mechanism
For models with back support, insert the
backrest pole into the backrest mechanism
(B) and adjust to the desired height (see
Figure 2.1). Tighten all controls (B). The image
shows one of several back mechanisms
available for Mercado Medic devices. Other
back mechanisms are mounted in the same
way, although the appearance may differ
from that in the image.
Chest support mechanism
For models with chest support, insert the
chest-support pole into the chest support
mechanism (C) and adjust to the desired
height (see Figure 2.2). Tighten all controls
(C).
Armrests
For models with armrests, loosen the armrest
control (D) and adjust to the desired height
and width (see Figure 2.1). Tighten all controls
(D).
Battery
Before first use, the battery in electric
models must be activated and charged. This
is done by connecting the battery charger
to the device's charging socket and to a
wall outlet (E), see Figure 2.1. The charging
socket can be placed in different places
on the device. The most common is that
the device comes with the charging socket
mounted at the rear edge of the left armrest.
Wait until the battery is fully charged before
using the device. This normally takes 2 to 5
hours. When the battery is fully charged, the
LED on the charger lights up green. For other
charging instructions, see 2.3. Charging.

interrupted by pressing the button for
movement in another direction.
• Emergency stop for hand-held controller:
If, for whatever reason, the system
does not interrupt a movement after
the corresponding control button has
been released, the movement can be
interrupted by pressing any of the other
buttons on the hand-held controller.
• Button lock on hand-held controller:
To enable or disable the button lock
for a function, press and hold both of
the directional buttons of the relevant
function for at least three seconds.
The button lock locks only the current
function. To lock multiple functions, each
function must be locked separately.
Warning! As a user, you should
contact your prescriber, technical
aids centre or distributor if the
device shows reduced or altered
performance. A device showing a
loss of or change in performance
must immediately be taken out of
use in order to avoid an accident.
The device must not be used again
until an authorised technician has
examined the device.
Warning! To maintain safety, the
device should only be used by the
person and purpose for which it is
intended. The device is set up for a
single user. Changing settings may
affect the user's seating position,
which may result in damage or injury.
Warning! You are not permitted to
modify the device yourself. If you
would like individual customisation,
contact your prescriber or distributor.
If the device is modified, the CE
marking no longer applies and
Mercado Medic may no longer have
full device liability. Modifications
may affect the safety of the device
and lead to accidents.
Consider the following before and during
use of the device
• All settings controls should be tightened
before using the device.
• The device must not be used without
fitting the backrest.
• The device must not be used without
fitting the armrests.
• The device’s brake must always be
applied when sitting down and getting up.
• The braking capacity of the device may be
impaired on heavily sloping floors.
• The braking capacity of the device may be
impaired on uneven floors.
• The device must be operated with care.
Always be aware of your surroundings
before moving. Pets or children on the
floor could be easily hit.
• The optional foot support ring is designed
to rest your feet on, not to stand on.
For models with electrical functions,
• Charge the device according to these
instructions for use, see Charging.
• The electrical functions cannot be used
when the device is charging.
• If the device is equipped with leg support,
your feet should always be in contact with
the footplate when using the electrical
functions.
• The seat must never be set to a height
where you are unable to get out of the
device safely.
• The device must not be moved when the
seat is in the raised position.
• Emergency stop for control buttons:
If, for whatever reason, the system
does not interrupt a movement after
the corresponding control button has
been released, the movement can be

Warning! The device may be
equipped with long cables or
wires that cannot be secured in
order for the device to function
properly. Cables and wires can
pose strangulation risks to small
children, for example. Do not leave
the device unattended with small
children nearby.
Warning! The device is equipped
with small parts such as screws
that can come loose. Small parts
that have come loose can pose
choking hazards for children and
pets.
Warning! Metal surfaces may
become very hot if they are
exposed to direct sunlight. Skin
contact with hot surfaces can lead
to burns. Avoid exposing metal
surfaces to direct sunlight.
Warning! Always ensure that the
device’s brake is applied when
sitting down and getting up. If the
device is not braked, it risks rolling
away when you get up or sit down,
which can lead to fall injuries.
Figure 2.3. Controls on the electric model.
Figure 2.4. Controls on manual models.
2.2. Electrical and manual height adjustment
Depending on the model, the device has
electric or manual height adjustment. To
adjust the height electrically, use the hand
control or button placed under the right
armrest (see Figure 2.3). To adjust the height
manually, use the control placed under the
seat or under the right armrest (see Figure
2.4). See 5. Configurations and settings for
detailed information about all the features
and controls of the device.

2. Connect the charger plug into the wall
socket. The LED on the charger will
indicate that charging is underway.
3. The battery is fully charged when the
LED on the charger changes colour from
red to green. If you are using the hand-
held controller, this will also be indicated
by the three green battery LEDs on the
controller, which will start to flash at the
same time.
If the electrical functions have not been
used for 7 days, the battery switches off
automatically. To reconnect the battery,
connect the battery charger to the charging
socket and the wall outlet and wait at least
5 seconds before unplugging the charger.
Itis recommended to charge the battery fully
after the battery has been disconnected.
If no electrical functions are working, try
charging the battery. If electrical functions
still do not work, contact your prescriber or
distributor, see 1.1. Contact details.
10
Instructions for use for medical standing support and chest support chairs Getting started
21-08907-UK-01
2.3. Charging
For electric models, the battery should
be charged once a day. Fully charging the
battery on a daily basis will take 2 to 5 hours.
It is important that the battery is never
completely discharged, as this helps to
prolong the life of the battery. Daily charging
of the battery is especially important on the
configurations with electric brake, electric
seat tilt and electric back recliner, to ensure
that you as a user can always get in and out
of the device safely. The device emits a low
battery level warning sound, for both low and
critical. Low battery is indicated by a short
signal. Critical battery level is indicated by
a short signal that ends with a loud beep.
Ifthe device is equipped with hand control,
the battery level can also be read on the
indicator lights (see Figure 2.5).
The device must be charged in a safe
manner. The electrical functions cannot be
used when the device is charging. For this
reason, choose an easily accessible wall
socket to plug the charger into. The charger
cable to the wall socket is 1 metre long and
must not be extended. In case of emergency,
disconnect the device from the mains by
unplugging the charger from the wall socket.
How to charge the device
1. Inset the plug into the charging outlet
(see Figure 2.6). The charging socket
is normally located at the rear edge of
the left armrest, but can also be located
under the seat, for example.
Figure 2.6. Connecting the plug to the charging socket
under the armrest.
Figure 2.5. Battery level indicator on hand-held controller.

Instructions for use for medical standing support and chest support chairs Getting started
21-08907-UK-01
2.4. Transfers
When moving around while sitting in the
device, it is important to make good contact
with the floor. For example, rubber-soled
indoor shoes can provide better grip and thus
facilitate movement. Rugs and carpets make
the movement more difficult. It is therefore
recommended to remove rugs or carpets if
you want to move while sitting.
For negotiating thresholds using the
REAL9500 PLUS and REAL 9600 PLUS EL
24V models, you will get more power by
backing over thresholds, mouldings and
gaps. Lower the seat and, if possible, adjust
the seat tilt forward slightly to get over the
threshold.
Do not remain seated on the REAL 2015
or REAL 2624 models when negotiating
thresholds, mouldings or gaps.
To find your device’s model number, see the
label on the device base or section 5.2 Basic
model.
Warning! Always ensure that the
device’s brake is applied when
sitting down and getting up. If the
device is not braked, it risks rolling
away when you get up or sit down,
which can lead to fall injuries.

3. Caring for the device
Clean the device according to the instructions in this section to maintain its functions and
service life. If you still have issues that cannot be resolved using available home resources,
please contact your prescriber or distributor for reconditioning.
PLEASE NOTE! Do not wash the device with water or other liquids and chemicals.
3.1. Padded parts
To maintain good device hygiene, the device’s
padded parts should be cleaned regularly.
Ifpadded parts are not regularly cleaned,
thedevice may require reconditioning.
Plush padded parts
Use a foam cleaner to clean plush padded
parts. Start by removing any loose debris.
Then use a cloth to distribute a thin layer of
foam. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth. Finish
by vacuuming the upholstery after it has
dried.
Synthetic leather padded parts
Use soap and water or surface disinfectant
to clean synthetic leather padded parts.
Start by removing any loose debris. Then
use a cloth to clean the upholstery with soap
and water or surface disinfectant. If the
upholstery is cleaned using soap and water,
finish by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
Leather padded parts
Use water to clean leather padded parts.
Start by removing any loose debris. Then
clean the upholstery with a clean, damp
cloth. For best effect, padded parts should
be cleaned immediately after something
is spilled on it. To extend the service life
of padded parts, avoid direct contact with
chemicals or prolonged sunlight.
3.2. Castors and brake feet
Regular cleaning of castors and brake feet
is required to maintain the operation of the
device. Wipe castors and brake feet with
a damp cloth. Remove any hair from the
castors using a thin crochet needle or similar
implement.
3.3. Other parts
Do not wash or clean the device’s lifting
mechanism or other actuators (found by the
electric seat tilt and brake, see Figure 3.1).
This is because there is a risk that the grease
required for these mechanisms to function as
intended might be removed during cleaning.
If necessary, a dry cloth can be used to
remove dust from any electronic parts of
the device. Clean the other non-electronic
parts of the device once a week or when

chest support chairs are designed and
recommended for one or more of the
following indications:
• Difficulty or inability to stand up from
sitting.
• Difficulty standing up or inability to stand.
• Difficulty or inability to walk.
• Pain or exhaustion arising from everyday
tasks at home or at the workplace that are
usually done standing up.
