Thank you for deciding to buy a product made
by Drive Medical. From now on, this lightweight,
high-quality bathlift will make it a lot easier for
you to get in and out of your bath.
This bathlift conforms to the legal standards DIN
EN ISO 10535:2006 and DIN EN 60601-1:1996.
The Bellavita is built with high-quality, recyclable
lightweight plastic. This makes our product easy
to transport and stow away – and ideally suited
for use in the home or away.
The lithium-ion battery is located in the hand control. The hand control itself can float in the water.
The drive motor and control electronics are completely water tight, so you can use the Bellavita
even with the shower on.
The sturdy frame dismantles, enabling the seat to
be raised or lowered from 6 cm to 48 cm (2.4 to
18.9 in) height. The lifting rod lifts and lowers the
seat surface when the user pushes the up and
down buttons.
The drive unit with integrated backrest can be
folded down for removal and automatically locks
in to the seat base when the lift is raised. This
prevents unintentional tilting of the backrest. Intelligent power control ensures that the lift can
only be lowered if sufficient power is available to
raise it again.

Scope
Bathing aids assist users with their daily hygiene. These aids compensate, in whole or in part,
for restricted or lost physical functions. The goal
of using such aids is to enable their users to
be independent of help and to give them more
privacy.
Bathlifts are used to lower and raise a user in the
bath. Their use is recommended if the physical
mobility of a person’s upper and/or lower extremities is significantly reduced making it difficult to
get into or out of the bath or to sit down and stand
up safely. In these cases, the use of a bathlift is
a great help to re-gain independence and privacy
in the bathroom.
◗
Important information
• Never use the Bellavita to climb in or out of the
bath. Never use it as a stand, lifting device, ladder, support, or for any similar purposes outside
of the bath. The lift is to be used only in order
to take a bath.
• ALWAYS keep animals and children away from
the bathlift.
• I n the event of malfunction or damage, please
contact your specialist dealer immediately. Do
not perform any makeshift repairs or modifications. Repair work has to be carried out by authorised specialist workshops or by the manufacturer only. Non-adherence to this provision
will render our guarantee invalid.
• Only raise or lower the lifting rod when the backrest is in an upright position and fully locked.
• Do not use height adapters for this product.
• Do not store the product in the vicinity of heat
sources.
For your own safety
4 · English
• Before transporting the bathlift please make
sure that the hand control is disconnected.
• If the lift has been exposed to low temperatures for a long period of time (e.g. prolonged storage in a vehicle during winter),
allow it to warm up to room temperature
before using it, so as to avoid damage.
• When using bath oils or salts, please observe
the recommended dosage – such additives
may affect the gliding behaviour of the crossbar
mechanism.
• Do not use any acetic acid cleaners or detergents for cleaning the Bellavita !
◗
Notes concerning the battery,
battery charger and hand control:
• Use the hand control only to operate the bathlift.
• The bathlift must only be used with an original
hand control made by Drive Medical.
• Never throw the hand control into an open fire
or store it in the vicinity of fire or strong heat
sources.
• Do not open the hand control.
This will invalidate the guarantee.
• Use only the supplied battery charger to charge
the battery.
• Do not use the hand control if the housing shows
any signs of damage.
• Use the battery charger only in dry rooms outside of the bathroom. Use the charging unit only
for charging the supplied storage battery.
• It is vital that the battery be fully charged
before the first use of the Bellavita - thereafter, it should be charged after each use.

carried out to check for the correct raising,
lowering and EMERGENCY STOP functions.
e) If a malfunction has occurred, do not operate
the bathlift and ask your specialist dealer to
remedy the problem.
f) Do not use any objects that could get stuck in
the mechanism (e.g. brushes, etc.) whilst using
the bathlift!

Notes concerning Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC)
This product is compliant with the protection
requirements set forth in the Council Directive
for the Harmonization of Legal Stipulations of
the Member States concerning Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMV, IEC 60601-1-2) (89/336/
EWG). However, the occurrence of electrical
interference cannot be ruled out completely
under certain conditions, i.e. in particular, if
mobile phones or other electrical devices are
used. In the vicinity of the bathlift, do not operate
any life- preserving or life-supporting devices or
any devices that may cause health hazards for
users in the event of malfunction. Such devices
may be subject to electrical interference under

Installation and use
English · 7
◗
First installation in the bath
1. Attach the suction cups to the underside of the
seat unit (baseplate). The tongues of the rear
suction caps must be directed outwards – this
ensures better access when the lift has to be
removed from the bath. Press the tongues of
the front suction cups into the provided recesses (front) in the baseplate.
➤
Important note:
The suction cups hold the bathlift firmly in place
on the bottom of the bath. Therefore, the suction cups at the underside of the Bellavita must
be clean and dry. The bath itself must also be
clean and dry. We recommend cleaning the suction cups and bathtub regularly with commercial
cleaning agents, so as to achieve highest possible suction.
2. Make sure that the bottom of the bath is empty
and clean (remove anti-slip mats or similar, if
necessary).
3. Place the seat unit with the suction cups attached to the baseplate into the empty bath.
Make sure that the rear suction cups are located close to the bevelled edge of the bath.
For more slip resistance
are 2 additional suction
cups available.

Hand control
Depending on the weight of the person bathing,
the capacity of the fully charged battery is for a
maximum of 6 baths. During the bathing process
the green control lamp of the hand control is lit
up green.
When the charging level of the battery falls to a
factory-defined level, the lamp colour changes to
orange and the lamps starts to blink slowly. This
indicates that there is enough energy for 1 (one)
bath and the battery should be charged according to the operating instructions.
If you continue to use the lift whilst the lamp is lit
yellow, the lamp colour may change from yellow
to red and start to flash at fast intervals. In this
case, the lift will only move upwards to ensure
that you can leave the bath safely. The battery
must now be charged immediately using the battery charger supplied.
GREEN lamp: Lift is ready for operation.
ORANGE lamp: Limited readiness for opera tion
– sufficient for one (1) more
bath. The battery should be
charged.
RED lamp: Lift no longer ready for opera-
tion – lift will only move upwards. Battery must be charged immediately.

Maintenance of the bathlift
The Bellavita is equipped with maintenance-free
bearings and does not need any lubrication.
A periodic maintenance check of the bathlift has
to be conducted at least every 12 months. This
check includes a visual inspection of all parts in
particular load-bearing parts. It also includes all
the necessary function tests. If the inspection reveals any defects, wear or other signs of damage, which might affect the safety of the bathlift,
the bathlift has to be made inoperative until the
defects are remedied. All inspections have to be
carried out by qualified and trained personnel who
have sufficient skills and practical experience to
perform such safety-relevant work in an appropriate manner. These qualified personnel have to
remain independent with regard to the tests and
inspections being carried out.
Please ask your bathlift specialist to arrange for
periodic inspections.
Your bathlift specialist has the necessary spare
parts lists and documentation available for you.
Please have repair work carried out by autho rised
specialist dealers only.
➤
Attention: The hand control must only be
opened by the bathlift manufacturer!
◗
Cleaning
To keep the bathlift in a perfect condition it must
be cleaned immediately after use (preferably by
showering it with hot water).
Carefully clean the bathlift under the shower after
each use.
To clean the bathlift (without covers), please use
commercial disinfectants or bath cleansers.
Maintenance and care
16 · English
◗
Assembly of new cushion plugs for
the bathlift covers
First guide the new cushion plug through the
opening in the cushion (from top to bottom); then
press it into the washer at the underside.
◗
Maintenance of seat covers
The material of the removable covers is very
hygienic due to its smooth surface and antibacterial properties.
The maintenance of the covers requires regular
cleaning, either by hand or in the washing machine at 60°C (140° F). Please use a non-bio detergent without any enzyme additives. Please note
that bath oils or other additives containing oils
may lead to discoloration of the covers.
Discoloration can also occur if the covers are not
cleaned regularly.
➤
Note: Discolorations of the covers are
caused by normal wear and are excluded
from the warranty.
• The covers can be removed very easily for cleaning.
• Do not dry the covers in the tumble dryer,
but hang them on a line to dry.
• In addition, the use of a commercial disinfectant
is recommended.
• Please observe the manufacturer’s instructions!
Maintenance and Care
English · 17
◗
Maintenance of the battery charger
The charging unit does not require any maintenance. The housing must only be cleaned with
mild detergents that are free from solvents, or by
means of a damp cloth. Make sure that no liquid
enters into the charging unit. Before using the
charging unit again, always make sure that the
unit is completely dry. If necessary, store the unit
in a dry, ventilated place for several hours without
connecting it to mains power.
➤
Attention:
Before cleaning the battery charger it must
be completely disconnected from the mains
power (always make sure to pull the mains
power plug).
◗
Charging the storage battery
Make sure that the battery is fully charged before
use! The voltage rating on the charging unit has
to be compatible with the voltage of your power
supply. (e.g. 220V – 240V in Europe, and 110V in
USA).
1. Plug the jack plug of the battery charger into
the socket on the spiral cord of the hand control until the jack plug is locked in.
2. Insert the mains plug of the battery charger
into a socket. The red control lamp on the
hand control will be light up until the battery is
charged – after that, it will change to green.
If you want to charge the battery complete-
ly, leave it connected to the charging unit. The
control unit of the battery charger will terminate
the charging process after approx. 4 hours.
This prevents that the battery from being over-
charged.
3. Remove the mains power plug from the
socket.
4. Remove the jack plug of the battery charger
from the socket on the hand control.
➤
Important information:
• If the control lamp is not lit up after connecting
the hand control, please check the following:
– Connections (is the jack plug fully plugged
into the charging socket?)
• Use the battery charger only in closed rooms
and protect it against water and humidity.
Do not use the battery charger in the bathroom.
