7. Using the bath lift
i ) To raise the bath lift, press the UP button on the hand control (see g 12). If the side aps are
caught on any obstruction, immediately lower the bath lift by pressing the DOWN button on the
hand control. Pull each side ap free from the obstruction, then resume the lifting operation.
ii ) As the bath lift reaches the top of the bath, the side ap on the side you will be getting on will
fold out to form a transfer platform.
iii) When the bath lift’s seat and side ap are level with and supported by the top of the bath, release
your nger from the UP button and the bath lift will stop.
iv) Sit on the side ap and move onto the seat, ensuring no part of your body can become trapped
as you do so. You may nd it easier to transfer if you wet the seat and the side aps rst. A slide
and swivel aid is available, should you nd transferring dicult (see section 16, “Accessories”). Turn
as you lift each leg over the side of the bath then make yourself comfortable on the seat.
v) Before lowering the bath lift, extend your feet out in front of you and keep hands above the seat
to avoid any risk of entrapment.
vi) To lower yourself to the bottom of the bath, press the DOWN button on the hand control
(see g 12). When the button is released, the bath lift will stop and remain at that position until
the button is pressed again.
vii) When you have reached the bottom of the bath, continue to press the DOWN button to begin
the backrest reclining. Release the DOWN button when you nd your desired recline position.
Maintain pressure on the DOWN button to stop the backrest at its fully reclined position. To
reduce the backrest angle, press the UP button.
viii) Whilst bathing, you may use the suction cups on the battery to attach the hand control and battery to
the edge of the bath or to a tiled wall. If the hand control and battery fall into the water, there is
NO danger as both are waterproof. Ensure you wipe the battery dry before charging.
ix) When you have nished bathing, retrieve the battery and hand control from where you stored it
by pulling the tags on the suction cups. Press the UP button to raise the bath lift. The backrest will
move into the upright position rst, then the bath lift will begin to rise. When the button is
