3.2 Examples
3.2.1 Stopping during the ride
If you wish to stop the stairlift during the ride, for example because you wish
to return or because you see an obstacle on the staircase, do the following:
1. Release the joystick on the control unit. The stairlift will stop
immediately.
2. Remove the obstacle.
3. Push the joystick in the desired direction to continue the ride.
If you wish to return, push the joystick in the opposite direction.
3.2.2 Obstacle on the staircase
If an obstacle on the staircase (or your foot for example) becomes caught
between a step and the footrest, the stairlift stops automatically and
immediately. You will hear fast short alarm beeps.
1. Push the joystick on the control unit in the opposite direction.
This way you can drive away from the obstacle.
2. Remove the obstacle.
3. Return in the original direction of travel.
3.2.3 Batteries not sufficiently charged
If the batteries do not have sufficient capacity, you will not be able to
drive the stairlift. In the event of the stairlift stopping while driving upstairs,
there is always the possibility to drive downstairs.
