CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
• REAL8200PLUS EL can affect and be affected by
equipment in its immediate vicinity that generates
electromagnetic fields; e.g alarm systems, power
generators. Mobile phones and similar equipment
can also interfere with the control system. Mercado
Medic AB recommends that such equipment should
not be stored any closer than 3.3 m(~10 ft) from the
chair.
• REAL8200PLUSEL has an electric lifting
mechanism that can lift a person high enough to
cause a risk of falling. If a person cannot get out
of the chair from its highest position, then the
seat height should never be set to higher than
the position at which your feet touch the ground.
The only exception to this is cases where you can
summon help via alarm or telephone.
• NOTE! The electrical functions on
REAL8200PLUSEL chairs may be used for
maximum 10% of the time, maximum 2 minutes
every 20 minutes. The electronics in the chair
measure the activity and shut down the electrical
functions if this limit is exceeded.
• Only electrical equipment from Mercado Medic AB
may be used on the REAL8200PLUSEL.
• Warning! Do not plug any accessory, other than
those supplied by Mercado Medic AB, into the
control system’s contacts.
• The chair must be operated with care. Before
moving off or operating the chair, consideration
must be given to the surroundings. Any pets or
children in the area could be easily run into. The
chair must only be used to sit on and should not be
regarded as a toy by either children or adults.

• Max user weight, REAL8200PLUSEL 150 kg
(330lbs).
• The REAL 8200 PLUS EL should not be used on any
incline greater than 5 degrees. If the chair is used or
the brake is applied at steeper inclines, it may begin
to slide which may cause the chair to fall over.
• If shipped, the chair must be transported in the
intended cardboard box on a pallet.
• If the chair is transported by car, it must be strapped
in place using straps over both the frame and the
seat, and it should be set to the lowest possible seat
height.
• The chair is tested and approved for use between
+5°C and +40°C(41°F and 104°F) and 15 to 90%,
non-condensing humidity. If the chair has been
stored in an environment outside these limits, the
chair must be left to acclimatise before use in order
to ensure that it can be used safely.
• Repairs and other technical measures may only be
carried out by personnel authorised by EMP Living
LLC.
• Maximum height 2000m(~6500 ft) above sea level.
• The REAL8200PLUSEL must not be moved when
the seat is in the raised position.
• Expected service-life ten (10) years.

variety of accessories. Only accessories supplied
by Mercado Medic should be used. All accessories
must be fitted so that there is no risk of small parts

USER MANUAL
Battery charger 2240-24V (part no. 805021) must be used to charge the chair. If using a different charger or
different batteries to those which are provided alongside the product by Mercado Medic AB, the warranty and
Mercado Medic AB’s product liability will cease to be valid for any cases regarding the battery, charging or other
electronic aspects of the chair. The battery should be charged on a daily basis. Fully charging the battery on a
daily basis will take between 2–6 hours. In order to preserve the battery’s service life, it is important that it never
becomes fully discharged as this can damage the battery cells. If the chair is equipped with a hand control with cord,
the battery level can be identified by checking the indication lights (1). On a full charge with a high electrical lifting
mechanism, you can raise the chair fully up/down up to 120 times with a load of
80 kg(176 lbs), or up to 90 times with a load of 150 kg(330 lbs).
How to charge the chair
Connect the contact plug (2) on the charger to the charging outlet (3) (the charging outlet is placed under the seat at
the rear on the right side). Then plug the charger into a wall socket. The LED on the charger will indicate that charging
is underway. When the LED changes colour from orange to green, the battery is fully charged. None of the electrical
functions will work while the chair is charging. The chair must be charged in a safe manner. For this reason, choose a
wall socket that is easily accessible to plug the charger into. The charger’s cable is 1.8 m and must not be extended.
In case of emergency, disconnect the chair by unplugging the charger from the wall socket. Do not sit on the chair
when it is charging.
Automatic battery deactivation
During longer periods of storage, the battery will automatically be deactivated after seven days. When the battery
is deactivated, it must be charged every four months in order to retain its functionality. To reconnect the battery
to the system again, connect the battery charger to the charging outlet and wall socket. Wait at least five seconds
before disconnecting the battery charger. The battery is now activated again and the system is ready for use. It is
recommended to leave the charger in place and fully charge the battery after the product has been stored with the
battery in its deactivated state.

USER MANUAL
Before using for first time
This product is delivered by Mercado Medic AB with the battery in its deactivated state. The battery must be
activated before using for the first time. This is done by connecting the battery charger. Keep the battery charger
connected until the battery is fully charged. This will be indicated by a green light on the charger’s LED. If you are
using the hand control with cord, this will also be indicated by the three green battery LEDs, which will start to flash
at the same time. The battery may also need to be charged when it has been inactive as a certain degree of self-
discharge always occurs for batteries.
Note!
Charging the battery is particularly important on chairs with electric brakes, electric seat tilting and electrical
back functions because these functions require a high battery capacity in order to work properly. Guarantee these
functions by recharging the battery once a day. The battery may only be changed by personnel authorised by
Mercado Medic AB. See assembly instructions, Battery Replacement.
Troubleshooting for electrical functions on your chair
There are no movements at all:
• The battery might need to be charged. See the instructions above.
• An internal error may have been detected by the system, which then shuts down one or all of the function
channels and switches on a warning light on the hand control with cord. The system will be reset automatically
after 10 seconds. If the error has been resolved, then all channels will be unlocked and the warning light will be
switched off.
• The button lock may be enabled. To enable or disable the button lock for a certain function, hold in both of the
directional arrows on the relevant button for at least three seconds.
The electric functions on the chair are slow:
• The battery needs to be charged. See the instructions above.
If none of the above measures are able to resolve the problem, servicing may be required. Please contact your dealer
or get in touch with Mercado Medic AB. You will find our contact details on the last page of this manual.
Emergency stop
If, for whatever reason, the system does not interrupt a movement after the corresponding function button has been
released, the movement can be interrupted by pressing down any of the other buttons on the hand control with cord.
If a fixed control unit is being used instead of a hand control with cord, the same emergency stop function can be
initiated by pressing down the button for movement in another direction.
*If the chair’s battery has reached a critical level and the electronic functions do not work after six hours of charging,
charge the chair for a further 24 hours. If the problem persists, please contact the distributor of your chair.
