MANDATORY
READ THIS MANUAL FIRST BEFORE INSTALLING OR
OPERATING YOUR POWER LIFT AND RECLINE CHAIR.
Your power lift and recline chair has been engineered from the
leg levelers up to provide the ultimate in strength and reliability. Great care
has been taken to provide you with total comfort and safety. UltraComfort
thoroughly inspects and tests each unit prior to shipment.
WARNING
Care should be taken in the unpacking of this unit, so as not to
cause injury to persons or damage to the unit. Dispose of all plastic
bags and covers, as they can be a smothering hazard to small
children.
Do not allow children or pets near the chair while
the chair is operating.
Do not allow children to play with or operate the
chair at any time.
Hand control should be unplugged and placed out of
the reach of children when the chair is not in use.
Do not flop down into the chair when getting into it, or while it is in
its lift position. Flopping down into the chair will damage it and could
cause personal injury.
Do not allow anyone to sit on your lap, or on the arm of the chair, or on
the footrest while in or operating the chair, as it may cause tipping and
could result in personal injury.
Do not place fingers or hands between the seat cushion and the inside
arm of the chair while sitting in the chair or when the chair is in
operation or plugged into a power source.
Do not retrieve fallen objects from inside or under the chair while the
chair is plugged into a power source.
Do not operate the chair if there are any persons,
pets or other obstructions under or in front of the
footrest, under the chair or behind the chair.
Do not position yourself, child and/or pet too high on
the chair while the chair back is reclined. This can
cause a tip over hazard. Make sure you are properly
fitted for the lift chair prior to operating the chair.

6
Do not smoke while operating, sitting or resting in the chair.
To reduce risk of electrical shock, do not immerse any of the
electrical components into a liquid, or spill any liquids onto electrical
components. Do not open any of the electrical components. There are
no serviceable parts.
Warranty will be void if any of the electrical components are opened
by other than a qualified service person.
Make sure the chair is placed at the specified distance from a wall/
corner (page 7). Failure to do so can damage the chair and will void
the warranty.
Do not use any type of electrical extension cord to plug your
chair into an electrical outlet. Make sure that all electrical
products and their wires are positioned away from your
chair as the metal lift frame mechanism could crush them
and create a fire hazard and/or may cause personal injury.
Do not operate your lift chair while intoxicated or taking medications
that impair your mental or physical abilities to operate the chair safely.
Consult with your doctor about any medications you are taking that
may affect the safe operation of the chair.
Do not operate this product if you have any medical conditions that
result in limited, debilitating mental or physical capacity. You should
consult your doctor before using this product.
Consult with your physician regarding using the Trendelenburg
position.
Placing the lift chair in the center of a room or too far away from a wall
will create a tripping hazard, because the power wires for the lift chair
will be crossing main traffic areas in the residence.
Leakage from the 9 VDC backup batteries can result in property
damage. Periodically inspect and replace the batteries. Read the
“Battery Back Up System” and “Care and Maintenance” sections in
this manual.
If the lift chair user is unconscious or sleeping the hand control may
inadvertently become activated in a way that may force the user out
of the chair.
Should you ever encounter a problem with the operation of your
power lift chair, discontinue all use of the product upon discovery of
the problem. Contact the provider from whom you purchased your
chair to arrange service.
Exceeding the stated weight limit listed in this manual can result in
instability of the lift chair, causing a potential tip over hazard.

Battery Back Up System
Your UltraComfort power lift chair comes with a battery back up system so
the chair can return to the seated position in the event of a household power
failure. The batteries have enough energy to bring the chair to a seated
position from the recline position. The batteries do not have enough energy nor
are they intended to operate the chair for a prolonged period of time in the absence
of standard household voltage (120 volt, 60 Hz). Batteries should be
replaced after one use. Batteries should be changed yearly. (See
installation page 8).
Smart Tek™ (Power Indication)
Your power lift chair is equipped with an indicator light on the hand control. This
light illuminates green when any button on the hand control is pressed,
indicating power to the hand control.
Your power lift chair also comes with a power indicator light on the transformer
and on the power cord connecting the motor to the transformer. The lights
illuminate green constantly, indicating power from the outlet to the
transformer and the motor. The lights have been provided to help you
identify electrical disconnects, should they occur, and to help your provider to
diagnose electrical problems, should they occur.
Should the chair not operate and the lights are out, check all
electrical connections to the chair. Make sure everything is plugged in
properly and there is power to the outlet into which the chair is plugged (see
installation on page 8for electrical connections). Should you ever
encounter a problem with the operation of your power lift chair and
the lights are on, such as mechanical problems or one light is out,
discontinue all use of the product upon discovery of the problem.
Contact the provider from whom you purchased your chair. They will be able
to resolve problems and take care of proper factory service if needed. You will
need to be prepared to answer some basic questions about your power
lift chair, such as model and serial number. The model and serial
number are located on the back of the hand control warning label attached
to the cord and the rear of the lift frame. Your provider will ask you
questions about your power indicator lights, such as which one is out.
Prior to calling your provider, check all the electrical connections to the
chair. Make sure everything is plugged in properly and there is power to
the outlet into which the chair is plugged (see installation on page 8 for
electrical connections).
