From the back of the wheelchair, with patient seated,
move the Slide Selector from the OFF position to the
ON position. Monitoring will automatically begin. See
Fig. B for Slide Selector location.

The system will not alarm as long as the patient remains
seated. If the patient attempts to stand, alarm will
sound. If the patient sits down again, alarm will stop,
the system will automatically reset, and monitoring will
resume.

If a patient is being escorted from the wheelchair to a
temporary non-wheelchair activity such as toilet duties
or shower, the slide selector may be moved to the
PAUSE position.

hand, moving the Slide Selector to ON, and then
removing hand pressure. If STANDDOWN fails to

STORAGE AFTER USE

Monitoring Controls protected inside the roll or fold.
Please make sure the Slide Selector remains in the OFF
position when storing StandDown.
