• When the light is constant green, it is ready
to use.
2.Prepare the bath/tub by removing:

interfere with the bath lift’s movement
(move the bath lift forward if there are xed
overhead obstacles);
• Pressing rmly on the seat to secure the
suction feet to the bath/tub;
Then:
• Unfold the two side aps to rest against the
sides of the bath/tub;

This bath lift is designed and manufactured to assist individuals in getting in and out of the
bath/tub. It should not be used for any other purpose. Do not use it in combination with
other lifting or moving devices. If you are unable to get out of the bath/tub unaided, do
not bathe without someone on call to help in an emergency.

1. Unpacking the bath lift
Open the packaging and ensure the bath lift is not damaged and that all parts are included. If it
has been damaged in transit or parts are missing, contact your supplier immediately.
Inside the box you will nd:
• A bath lift, complete with two side aps and hand control attached (see g 1)
• A battery (see g 2)
• A battery charger with charging cradle attached (see g 2)
If your bath lift is supplied with optional soft covers, t them at this stage
(see cover tting instructions).
Before installing or using the bath lift for the rst time, ensure you charge the battery
(see section 2, “Charging the battery” below).
2. Charging the battery
Before rst operation of your bath lift or after long periods of non-use (typically
7-10 days), fully charge the battery as follows. A at battery will take up to 2 hours to
charge.
i ) Slide the battery into the tracks on the charging cradle until it clicks into place (see g 2).
ii ) Plug the charger into the mains socket/outlet outside the bathroom and switch on the
electricity supply (if applicable).
iii) The light indicator on the charger box will initially ash in a quick sequence of red, green,
red, green, before a constant red light appears to indicate charging is in progress (see g 2).
iv) When the battery has been fully charged, the red light on the charger box turns to a
constant green light, which indicates the battery is ready for use. We recommend charging
the battery after each bath wherever possible and leaving it on charge until your next bath.
The battery cannot be overcharged.
v) When you are ready to use your fully charged battery (see paragraph iv), switch o
the mains socket or remove the charger from the mains socket/outlet, then ensure
you disconnect the battery from the charging cradle. (This prevents the battery
discharging and will reset the charger ready for its next use.)
