GENERAL WARNINGS
DO NOT operate this equipment without
first reading and understanding this instruction sheet. If you are unable to understand
the Warnings, Cautions, and Instructions,
contact a healthcare professional, dealer
or technical personnel if applicable before attempting to use this equipment - otherwise injury or damage may result.
After ANY adjustments, repair or service
and BEFORE use, make sure all attaching
hardware is tightened securely.
DO NOT move the chair when occupied.
DO NOT sit on the ottoman. It is not de-
signed as a seating area.

contact with moving parts of the chair. If it
is necessary to retrieve items that may have
fallen under the chair, make certain the
chair is unplugged before proceeding.

SAFETY SUMMARY (CONTINUED)
GENERAL WARNINGS
Exercise extreme caution if there is a
power failure when chair is in fully reclined
position. User should be aware that when
the power fails the lift out chair will not
operate and is advised to find assistance
when exiting chair.
WEIGHT LIMITATION
The Lift-Out Chair can NOT be used by indi-
viduals weighing more than 350 lbs (160 kg.)
CAUTION (CONTINUED)
DO NOT operate the chair more than two
(2) minutes every twenty (20) minutes (2 minutes ON/ 18 minutes OFF). If the chair is operated excessively, the protective thermal

POSITIONING THE LIFT-OUT
CHAIR
1.Make certain there is adequate room to operate your
chair. With the chair in the closed (upright) position,
there must be 18-inches (45 cm) of clearance between
the top of the chair back and the wall. Nothing should
obstruct the back or the ottoman as the chair reclines.
2.Remove the cardboard corner pads (used for shipping) from the bottom of the chair before use. Ensure
all staples holding the cardboard corner pads are removed or not sticking up from the wood frame. This
will alleviate any rubbing with the lift mechanism.
CAUTION
All staples holding the cardboard corner
pads MUST be removed or not sticking up
from the wood frame-otherwise injury or
damage may result.

residues. Always use a clean soft damp cloth when
utilizing the following cleaning methods.
For Light Soiling:

warm water applied with a soft damp cloth will remove most soiling.

applied with a soft bristle brush. Wipe away the residue with a water-dampened cloth.
3. Unplug the chair.
4. Roll the chair forward onto the ottoman and the front
of the seat back.

Please Review Carefully
Motor and Pendant Cleaning
Should you choose other cleaning methods or other cleaning agents, carefully try them in an inconspicuous area to
determine potential damage to the material. Never use
harsh solvents or cleaners intended for industrial applications. To clean stained or soiled areas, a soft white cloth is
recommended. Avoid use of paper towels.
Stains such as lipstick, crayon, felt tip pens, ballpoint pen,
certain dyed suntan lotions or mustard, etc. must be
cleaned immediately. The longer these and other similar
harsh/permanent stains are exposed to the vinyl surface,
the more difficult the vinyl will be to clean. In some cases,
removal of certain stains is impossible.
WARNING
Cleaning products may be harmful/irritating to your skin, eyes, etc. Use protective
gloves and eye protection. Do not inhale
or swallow any cleaning product. Protect
surrounding area/clothing from exposure.
Use in a well-ventilated area. Follow all
product manufacturers warning(s).
Unplug the chair from the wall before cleaning the motor
or pendant. The motor and pendant may be cleaned with
a damp cloth or sponge.
WARNING
DO NOT pour or spray liquids onto the motor. Otherwise injury or damage may
result.
l Cleaning agents should be free of acids or salt
water.
l Dry the motor and pendant thoroughly after clean-
