For your own safety

•  The Akkulift

®

, charging unit and storage battery 

are  of  robust  construction,  but  should  not  be 
 allowed to fall. Should any visible or audible da-
mage be detected, Akkulift

®

 must no longer be 

used.  In  this  case  please  contact  your  dealer. 
We recommend, filling in the dealer contact in-
formation on the last page of this manual.

•  For  further  information,  technical  details  and 

addresses, please read the entire operating in-
structions.

•  In the event of a failure, please read the supple-

ment  to  these  operating  instructions  and  the 
“Troubleshooting” chapter. Make sure to obser-
ve the information and instructions given there. 
For your own safety you should not use Akku-
lift

®

 in the meantime, until the fault has been re-

medied.

 

Important safety regulations

a)  Always sit in the middle of the lift , stretch your 

legs forward slightly and place your free hand 
either on the edge of the bath or on your lap. 
Using  the  other  hand,  regulate  the  Akkulift

®

 

movement up or down.

b)  Whilst raising or lowering Akkulift

®

, do not place 

your hands between the edge of the bathtub 
and Akkulift

®

 or under the seat of the chair, as 

this can cause injuries.

c)  Persons  with  severe  physical  handicaps  or 

mentally  disturbed  persons  should  never  be 
left unattended in the bath.

d)  Before using the bath lift, a test run should be 

carried out (for raising, lowering and stopping, 
and  also  for  checking  the  Emergency-Stop, 
the red button on the hand control).

e)  If  a  malfunction  has  occurred,  please  do  not 

operate Akkulift

®

, but contact your dealer and 

ask him to remedy the problem.

f)  Do not take any objects into the bathtub when 

bathing!

  Note concerning Electromagnetic 

Compatibility (EMC) 

The electrical drives are confirmed to be compliant 
with the protection requirements set forth in The 
Council Directive for the Harmonization of Legal 
Stipulations  of  the  Member  States  concerning 
Electromagnetic Compatibility (86/336/EWG).
However, the occurrence of electrical interference 
cannot be ruled out completely under certain con-
ditions, i.e. in particular, if mobile phones or other 
electrical devices are used. 

In the vicinity of the bath lift, do not operate any 
life-preserving  or  life-supporting  devices  or  any 
devices that may cause health hazards for users 
in the event of malfunctions. Such devices may 
be subject to electrical interference under certain 
conditions,  or  they  may  adversely  affect  the 
 proper functioning of the bath lift.

If you should detect any malfunctions or unusual 
behavior of your bath lift or in the vicinity or during 
the operation of other electrical devices, please 
make  the  bath  lift  inoperative  and  notify  your 
 specialized dealer.
