HOW TO USE YOUR STAIRLIFT
HOW TO USE YOUR STAIRLIFT
Before you use your stairlift, please read all of these
instructions carefully. This stairlift has been designed to carry
one person in a seated position. Do not allow children to
play on or near the stairlift.
• The boarding/exit area of the stairlift must be kept well lit,
to a level of at least 50 Lux.
• The stairlift chair must be isolated with the key switch (8)
while getting on and off the lift.
• If you are not able to safely get on or off this lift, seek
assistance from a competent person.
Getting On The Chair
1. If it is raised, fold down the seat (5). The footplate (7) will
automatically lower as the seat is lowered.
2. Ensure that the seat is swivelled into the correct position
so you can sit on it safely, if not then push either of the
seat swivel levers (4) and move the seat into the correct
position taking note that the manual swivel seat locks into
3 positions. When the seat stops in the correct position,
release the swivel lever and ensure that the seat locks
in place.
3. The arms (1) fold up and down to increase accessibility
when getting onto the chair should this be required.
Please ensure the arms are in the down position before
attempting to travel on the chair.
4. Sit on the seat and fasten the retractable safety belt (3)
around your waist.
5. If it is necessary, swivel the seat back into the correct
travel position and place your feet rmly on the footplate.
Travelling Up Or Down The Stairs
1. Keep your feet on the footplate (7) and your arms on
the arm rests (1).
2. Press and hold the direction controller (2) in the
direction you wish to travel. There will be a short delay
and then the stairlift will slowly move off. The stairlift will
automatically adjust its speed as it travels along the rail.
This is to ensure a smooth and comfortable journey.
3. Keep the direction controller pressed in the direction of
travel until the stairlift comes to a complete stop. If your
lift is tted with the powered swivel option, keep the
direction controller pressed and the lift will automatically
swivel into the correct position for safely getting out of
the chair. If you stop the lift during travel or if you wish
to change direction, release the controller, wait for a few
seconds and then operate the controller in the direction
you wish to travel. After a short delay, the lift will move off.
Getting Off The Chair
1. The chair MUST be in a position for you to get off safely.
Please bear in mind that this may mean swivelling the
seat. If this is required, push down on either of the seat
swivel levers (4) and swivel the seat around into the
correct position for you to get off it safely - release the
lever once this has been achieved and ensure that it locks
into this position.
2. Once the lift has come to a complete stop, including
any manual swivelling that may be required, unfasten the
retractable safety belt (3) from around your waist and get
out of the stairlift seat.
3. If it is required, fold up the seat (5) and arm rests (1),
the footplate (7) will automatically fold up as the seat
is raised.
4. In the event that the stairlift needs to be moved without
a passenger, the seat needs to be in the normal travelling
position, i.e. not swivelled.
Remote Control
To move the stairlift without a passenger, or to assist a
seated passenger, press and hold down the appropriate
direction button on the remote control (12).
