SEAT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

In order to adjust the seat height to the patient's

lower leg length, proceed as follows for all 4

stool legs:

1. Press the spring-mounted button into the

telescoping tube with your thumb (1, Fig. 4).

2. Push the tube into the desired position

(2, Fig. 4).

3. Ensure that the spring-mounted button snaps

into place audibly after adjusting the height.

The correct seat height has been chosen when it

is possible to sit with the thighs in a horizontal

position.

WARNING

Tipping danger: All four legs must be set to the

same height, otherwise there is a risk of tipping!

Risk of trapping: When operating the

spring-mounted button on the chair legs, there

is a risk of ngers getting caught in the drill

holes. Operate the spring-mounted button with

caution.

If the spring-mounted button disappears into

the frame tube when pressed in too forcibly (2,

1. Pull the entire telescoping foot downwards

with a slight rotational movement. (1).

2. Use a long object (e.g. screwdriver) to move

HOW TO USE THE SHOWER STOOL

The shower stool consists of a seat cushion,

four stool legs, and two side frame elements.

The tubular armrests of the side frame ele-

ments act as supports when sitting down on

and getting up from the shower stool. They

help you to lower yourself slowly and in a

controlled fashion onto the chair by support-

ing yourself with both hands on the top of

the two tubular armrests. When seated, the

side frame elements provide you with support

on both sides. You can also place your arms

on them and hold onto them for support (Fig.

6).

1. Place the shower stool in the shower.

2. Sit down on the dry seat surface. For support,

you can grab onto the middle of the tubular

armrests from above (Fig. 6).

3. To get up, grab onto the middle of both tubu-

lar armrests from above and get up slowly

and in a controlled fashion.

WARNING

Tipping danger: Always use both tubular arm-

rests simultaneously for support, otherwise there

is a risk of tipping over to the side.

Danger of slipping: Do not allow any oily or

highly soapy substances to come into contact

with the rubber feet, as this may cause the show-

er stool to slip away.

Danger of falling off: Avoid extreme body

movements on the stool, as this may cause you

to fall off the stool.
