ELECTROMAGNETIC AND RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (EMI/RFI)
WARNING! Laboratory tests have shown that electromagnetic and radio frequency
waves can have an adverse affect on the performance of electrically-powered
devices, such as lift chairs.
Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference can come from sources such as cellular phones, mobile
two-way radios (such as walkie-talkies), radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, wire-
less computer links, microwave signals, paging transmitters, and medium-range mobile transceivers used by
emergency vehicles. In some cases, these waves can cause unintended movement or damage to the control
system of electricaly-powered devices. Every electrically-powered device has an immunity (or resistance) to
EMI.The higher the immunity level, the greater the protection against EMI. Per EMC standards, this product
has passed immunity testing and is suitable for use in all establishments, including domestic establishments.
WARNING! Be aware that cell phones, two-way radios, laptops, and other types of
radio transmitters may cause unintended movement of your electrically-powered
device due to EMI. Exercise caution when using any of these items while operating
your lift chair.
WARNING! The addition of accessories or components to the lift chair can increase
the susceptibility of the chair to EMI. Do not modify your lift chair in any way not
authorized by Pride.
WARNING! Your lift chair itself can disturb the performance of other electrical devices
located nearby, such as alarm systems.
NOTE: If unintended motion occurs, discontinue use of the lift chair. Call Pride to report the incident.
SHIPPING AND DELIVERY
Before using your lift chair, make sure your delivery is complete as some components may be individually
packaged. If you do not receive a complete delivery, please contact your authorized Pride Provider immedi-
ately. Where damage has occurred during transport, either to the packaging or content, please contact the
delivery company responsible.
MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORT
If you will be transporting your lift chair in a motor vehicle, individual components (external transformer, etc.)
should be secured against slipping. The lift chair itself must also be secured against slipping (a possible
hazard during vehicle braking).

LIFT CHAIR PLACEMENT
Yourliftchairshould be placed near a standardelectrical outlet on dry,levelground wherethereisample room
to allow for proper operation. Pride recommends that you have the assistance of an attendant when position-
ing the lift chair to avoid the possibility of injury when lifting.
Follow these steps to position the lift chair in a safe manner:
1. Place the back of the lift chair 30 in. (76 cm) from the nearest obstruction while the chair is in the seated
position.This measurement may vary depending on model.
2. Adjust the leg levelers to stabilize the lift chair (Fig. 3.2).
3. Install the batteries into the external transformer.Refer to “Battery Installation” for more information.
4. Position the external transformer on the floor in an open, well-ventilated area where it will not be an ob-
struction, or if equipped, utilize the optional wall mount.
5. Position the low voltage connection cable where it will not be pinched between the frame and the lift
mechanism.
6. Connect the low voltage connection cable to the external transformer if it is not already connected.
7. Plug the power cord directly into the electrical outlet. Do not use an extension cord!
NOTE: If you discover a problem at any point during the setup and positioning of your lift chair,
stop and contact your authorized Pride Provider immediately. To avoid personal injury and/or prod-
uct damage, do not plug the unit into the electrical outlet until the problem is corrected and do
not attempt to fix electrical problems by yourself.
NOTE: For chairs with heat and massage options, the green light on the external transformer is lit
to indicate proper operation. The blinking red light indicates that no batteries are installed or
battery power is low.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
Your lift chair is equipped with a battery backup system that will activate during a power failure.The backup
system is powered by two 9V batteries (not included) that need to be installed into the external transformer.
Follow these steps to install the batteries:
1. Unplug the external transformer power cord from the electrical outlet.
2. Open the marked battery door on the external transformer.
3. Install two 9V batteries into the external transformer (Fig. 4.2 and 4.3).
4. Replace the battery door.
NOTE: Always make sure the external transformer is equipped with two fresh 9V batteries, since
the battery backup system does not recharge itself. Fresh batteries are defined as 9V alkaline
batteries that are replaced every time the battery backup system is activated during a power
failure, or once a year if the battery backup system has not been activated.
NOTE: If you unplug your lift chair for an extended period of time (more than one hour), remove the
batteries from the external transformer. The lift chair will draw power from the batteries even
when it is not in use.
