2.2. Provisions for transport
The stairlift is intended for transporting persons with walking difficulties or wheelchair users.
The stairlift travels between defined stopping points (entry or exit) on rails fixed to the wall or
on mounting supports. Operation may only be carried out by instructed persons.
The following transport options are provided between the stopping points:
One person in a wheelchair or stable goods that do not protrude over the edge of the
platform
One person sitting on the folding seat
Misuse such as the sole carriage of loads (equipment, liquids, etc), the transport of objects
that protrude above the platform, and persons without restricted mobility (except
accompanying persons) are not permitted.
The transport of persons with visual impairments and mental disabilities is only permitted if an
accompanying person communicates the driving commands.
Loading the stairlift with more than the permissible load capacity also counts as misuse.
2.3. Exclusion of warranty and liability
The warranty does not cover damage caused by insufficient knowledge of the operating
instructions or by improper use of the machine.
