•Before use, check that the seat surfaces are firmly
clamped in the seat frame.
•Always lock the parking brakes (both) on the 24”
wheels (except while driving) before using the chair
to prevent the chair from rolling away.
•When sitting down, do not sit on the front edge of
the seat or on the seat cushion; the user should
take up the entire seat surface.
Caution: Danger of tipping over!
•The chair must only be pushed by the push handle
(backrest).
•The footrests must be swivelled down or folded up
before sitting down/standing up. Do not stand on
the footrests!
•Do not move the chair against door thresholds,
edges or other uneven surfaces
•Only use the product indoors and on flat, skid-
proof surfaces.
•Only move the chair at a moderate walking pace
(with and without patients)
•Do not lean out of the chair (both in standstill and
while moving). If the swivel castors are in an unfa-
vourable position (pointing inwards), stability of the
chair is limited.

section 2). Observe the permissible max. body
weight (information on the nameplate)!
•Never carry or lift the product while a patient is sit-

tween the seat surface and the frame so that no
body parts are trapped.
•When folding down the footrests, take care to
avoid trapping any parts.
•When pulling out and pushing in the toilet bucket,
there is a risk of trapping soft tissue of the patient.
To prevent injuries, the bucket may only be pulled
out or pushed in when no user is sitting in the chair.
Caution: Risk of injury!
•There is a risk of injury with surface temperatures
> 40°C. Therefore, do not expose the product to
high temperatures (e.g. sunlight, radiators, hot wa-
ter). Allow the product to cool down before use.

11 Operation of the product
•Before use, it must be ensured that the product is
in proper operating condition. If defects or malfunc-
tions are evident, the product must not be used.
Have the defects corrected by a specialist dealer
before use.
If necessary, depending on the patient's lim-
itations (adequate mobility and muscle
strength), sitting down and getting up must
be done with the help of a caregiver. Subsequent
adjustments may only be made by qualified per-
sonnel!
11.1 Sitting down

curely positioned to prevent it from slipping or tip-
ping over, that both 24“wheels are braked, that the
armrests are properly engaged, that the
shower/toilet seat is firmly in place, and that the
footrests are folded to the side or up.
•The patient must position them-
selves as close as possible
to the product. By support-
ing themselves on the two

limitations, support must be provided by the nurs-
ing staff. If necessary, the use of a lifting aid or pa-
tient lift is advisable
Caution: Danger of falling!
•Falling down or
slumping on the chair seat
must be avoided. The pa-
tient should sit on the full
chair surface, if possible,
and not only on the edge of
the seat.
•When transporting
people, the entire surface of the backrest and the
footrests must be used if possible.
11.2 Getting up
•Before getting up, make sure that the product is
securely positioned to prevent it from slipping or
tipping over, that both 24“wheels are braked,
that the armrests are properly engaged, and that
the footrests are folded to the side or up.
•The patient should move forward on the chair so
that their feet are on the floor.
•The patient must
support themselves with
their arms on the armrests
and slowly rise from the
seat.
•Do not lean your
body too far forward to avoid
a potential risk of falling.
•The patient should be helped to stand up by the
nursing staff.
Caution: Danger of falling!
•The patient must
never leave their feet on the
footrests when sitting down or
getting up.
11.3 Swivelling the armrests
•Pulling out the locking bolts (A) releases the lock-
ing mechanism, and the armrests can be swivelled
backwards.
•When folding up the armrest, check that the catch
on the backrest (B) and the locking bolt (A) are
seated correctly. The armrests can be swivelled
with both hands.
•To do this, keep the locking bolt (A) pulled during
the entire swivelling process and guide the armrest
to point (C) with the other hand. Only touch the
outer area and do not reach into or through the
armrest.
Check the locking at regular intervals, as
possible limescale deposits on the locking
mechanism can impair function and smooth
operation.
11.4 Removing the footrests
•Remove or fold up the seat. Then, raise the foot-
rest by approx. 100 mm and turn outwards by 90
degrees.
•Now you can push the footrest all the way up and
pull it out.
11.5 Removing the shower/ toilet seat
•The seat can be removed from its locked position
on the chair frame by lifting it off for cleaning or
replacement.
11.6 Handling of the toilet bucket
•From the back of the chair, slide the toilet bucket
under the seat. To remove, slightly lift the bucket
and then pull it out backwards.
11.7 Operation of the parking brake
wheel, 24”
•The parking brake on the 24" wheel is released by
pulling (1) the lever backwards.

•Pressing (2) the lever forward breaks the 24"
wheel. Push the lever all the way down
•If the braking effect is not sufficient or if the braking
effect decreases after some time of use, it is nec-
essary to adjust the parking brake.
Individual setting and adjustment of the
parking brake must only be carried out by
the specialist dealer. This also applies to the re-
placement or repair of a parking brake.
11.8 Height adjustment of the backrest
cushion
•The backrest cushion is attached to the cross strut
of the backrest. It can be adjusted in two fixed
heights. By loosening the screws, the backrest
cushion can be adjusted by 80 mm.
11.9 Setting of the parking brake
•Push the brake lever (1) all the way back. Loosen
the Allen screws (2) of the parking brake only
slightly with a spanner (SW 5). Push the parking
brake up to approx. 25 mm in front of the wheel
profile 24" and tighten the Allen screw.
•Check the function of the parking brake by pushing
the lever forward. If the braking effect is still not
sufficient, readjust (reduce or increase the dis-
tance).
11.10 Tilt and fall protect
•To overcome obstacles, the self-propelled unit can
be tilted backwards. This raises the front wheels
and an obstacle can thus be overcome.
•Hold the backrest with both hands and tilt the chair
backwards until the two support legs are almost on
the floor.
•By pulling out the clip, the tilt protect tube can be
pulled off
