Cleaning, maintenance and charging
The chair must be wiped and kept free from dust and dirt. The upholstery is cleaned with a
foam cleaner. The seat, backrest and other padded parts are, for functional purposes, not made of
impermeable materials. For hygienic reasons, when the upholstery is changed, the seat and pad-
ding material should be replaced.
The electronic lifting device should be checked regularly for dust and dirt. Put the seat into its
highest position. Clean with a cloth. Water or solvents may not be used. After this, lubricate the
cylinder with a thin layer of Teflon- or silicon-based grease, which does not become over-viscous
like greases based on mineral oils.
All the tools, grease etc. needed for proper maintenance of the chair can be ordered from Mercado
Medic AB.
When only red lights appear on the battery indicator (4, in the illustration at the top of the page
), this means that the chair is running on reserve power. The batteries should be recharged since
only 10 per cent of the battery’s capacity remains. If the chair continues to be used, the red lights
will start to flash to give a further reminder of the need for recharging. To charge, make sure that
the chair is switched off. Insert the loading plug (1) into the loading socket (2) on the front of
the control box. Then connect t he charger’s mains plug (3) to a wall socket. Light (4) glows with
a yellow glare when the battery is charging. When light (4) stops glowing, the battery is charged
90% of it's capacity and can be used. But for longest battery durability one should wait until light
(5) glows.
When exchanging battery(Brand: Sonnenschein, Type: Dryfit A500 A512 12V 25 Ah), be sure to
connect the cabel marked with a plus sign to the positive pole on the battery. The negative marked
cabel should be connected to the negative pole.
Guidelines when handling batteries:
Do not ever shortcircuit the battery. Do not throw it on the fire. Avoid heavy bumps to the
battery. If exposed to batteryacid, rinse immediately with water for at least 15 minutes then
contact a doctor. Used batteries must be left at a environmentalstation.

Adjustment of control box position
The control box can be adjusted for depth and sideways position. To adjust the depth, undo screw
(1) with a 5mm Allen key. Move the control arm to the required position (out of three possible)
and return the screw. The control box can also be moved sideways to either the inside or the outside
of the armrest. The control arm is jointed at two points. This allows the control box to be moved
horizontally and laterally without the use of tools. Push the control box into the desired position
and it locks into position itself. The control box can be placed on either side of the chair. 1
