Medeci Bath Seat
Page 1 of 2
Intended Use
The Medeci Bath seat is designed to provide
a raised bathing seating position and to assist
with entering and leaving the bath. It is
secured to the base of the bath using the
sucker feet and to the sides of the bath with
the non-slip rubber width adjusters.
It is often recommended that the Medeci Bath
Seat is used in conjunction with a bath board.
Safety Precautions
DO ensure the bath and the seats are clean
and dry before use.
DO ensure all the bath seat sucker feet are
securely fixed and fitted flat on the base and
not angled by the curvature of the bath.
DO ensure the bath is deep enough before
fitting the bath seat. It is important that the
rubber ends of the seat make a good tight
contact against the flat part of the bath side
and away from any curvature.(See Diagram 2)
DO NOT attempt to remove the bath seat
before releasing the width adjusters and
sucker feet, as this may damage the bath
seat.
DO NOT use the seat if the max user weight
is exceeded.
DO NOT use in a highly sculptured or unusual
shaped bath, as the seat may not fit properly.
DO NOT use in a bath with a textured base.
Always check the bath seat is securely
fitted before use.

Care and Maintenance
Regular inspection of the Medeci Bath Seat is
recommended for signs of wear or damage.
Removing
To remove the bath seat turn the adjustment
wheels to reduce the width so that the seat is
no longer in contact with the bath sides (see
diagram 1). Release the sucker feet by lifting
the tabs. It should now be possible to remove

Installation Instructions

Continued:
4 - Turn both adjusters to widen the seat
surface and continue turning until the edges of
both sides of the seat press firmly against the
sides of the bath. The seat should now feel
firm and stable. If it does not, continue turning
the adjusters to widen the seat until it feels
secure.
5 - We would recommend the safest way to
use the 12” (305mm) seat is to stand on the
floor next to the bath and then to sit down
directly onto the seat. Legs can then be lifted,
one at a time, over and into the bath. It is
recommended that the 8” (203mm) and 6”
(152mm) seats are to be used in conjunction
with a bath board. Sit on the bath board first in
the same manner as described above before
moving down onto the bath seat.
