CHARGING POINTS & REMOTE CONTROLS
CHARGING POINTS & REMOTE CONTROLS
Charging Points (11)
The charging points are located at the top and bottom of
the rail. The lift must be parked on a charging point when
it is not in use. The stairlift will sound an audible beep and
display “OFF CHARGE” in the status display if it is not
parked on a charging point or if it is parked on a charging
point but the power supply to the lift is not switched on.
Remote Controls (12)
The remote controls work in a similar way to the arm
controls. Pressing the up arrow will make the stairlift travel in
the up direction and pressing the down arrow will make the
stairlift travel in the down direction. In most cases these will
be the only buttons you will need to use. If your lift is tted
with an optional intermediate charging point (for instance
to reduce clutter at the top or bottom of the staircase)
then on pressing the round button the lift will travel in the
up direction until it reaches the next charging point, where
it will come to a stop. This button is referred to as the
park button.
If your lift is a powered swivel model and the park button is
used, it can behave in 2 different ways;
1. If the footrest and seat are in their normal ‘down’
positions the lift will carry out any swivel required for the
safe navigation of the staircase before moving off.
2. If the footrest and seat are in their folded away ‘up’
positions the lift will move the footrest and seat unit until
they are perpendicular to the carriage before navigating
the staircase. When the lift is subsequently called to the
top or bottom of the staircase, as long as the seat and
foot plate are still in their ‘up’ positions they will remain
perpendicular to the carriage. In the event that they
have been lowered while the lift was on its parking point
the lift will carry out any swivel required for the safe
navigation of the staircase before moving off.
If the arrow buttons on the remotes make the lift
move in the opposite direction to what is indicated,
then the ‘hand’ of the lift is probably set wrong.
