MANDATORY! Read and follow the information provided in this owner’s manual
before attempting to operate your lift chair for the first time.

There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where you will need to practice operating the
lift chair in the presence of a trained attendant. A trained attendant can be defined as a family member or
healthcare professional specially trained in assisting you with performing various daily living activities while

Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will help you become accustomed to

observe weight limitations.

II. GENERAL GUIDELINES

ELECTROMAGNETIC AND RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (EMI/RFI)

WARNING! Laboratory tests have shown that electromagnetic and radio frequency
waves can have an adverse affect on the performance of electrically-powered
devices, such as lift chairs.

Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference can come from sources such as cellular phones, mobile
two-way radios (such as walkie-talkies), radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, wire­less computer links, microwave signals, paging transmitters, and medium-range mobile transceivers used by
emergency vehicles. In some cases, these waves can cause unintended movement or damage to the control
system of electrically-powered devices. The lift chair user can help prevent electromagnetic interference by
maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment. It is recom­mended that at lest 3 metres (9 feet) of distance be maintained between the lift chair and any handheld
equipment emitting 10 W or more of output power. Refer to the manufacturer’s literature for the handheld
device to determine the maximum output of that device.

Every electrically-powered device has an immunity (or resistance) to EMI. The higher the immunity level, the
greater the protection against EMI. Per EMC standards, this product has passed immunity testing and is rated
as a Group 1, Class B product, meaning the lift chair uses RF energy only for its internal function. Therefore,
its RF emissions are very low and are not likely to cause any interference in nearby electronic equipment,
making the lift chair suitable for use in all establishments, including domestic establishments and hospitals.

WARNING! Be aware that cell phones, two-way radios, laptops, and other types of
radio transmitters may cause unintended movement of your electrically-powered
device due to EMI. Exercise caution when using any of these items while operating
your lift chair.

WARNING! The addition of accessories or components to the lift chair can increase
the susceptibility of the chair to EMI. Do not modify your lift chair in any way not
authorised by Pride.

WARNING! Your lift chair itself can disturb the performance of other electrical
devices located nearby, such as alarm systems.

NOTE: If unintended motion occurs, discontinue use of the lift chair. Contact Pride to report the
incident.

SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

Before using your lift chair, make sure your delivery is complete as some components may be individually
packaged. If you do not receive a complete delivery, please contact your authorised Pride Provider immedi­ately. Where damage has occurred during transport, either to the packaging or content, please contact the
delivery company responsible.

MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORT

If you will be transporting your lift chair in a motor vehicle, individual components (external transformer, etc.)
should be secured against slipping. The lift chair itself must also be secured against slipping (a possible
hazard during vehicle braking).
