1.1 Introduction
In these User Instructions you will find information
and advisories for start-up, use, operation,
maintenance and care of the shower/commode
wheel chair.
1.2 Intended proper use
The shower/commode wheel chair is for homecare
and out-patient purposes. The chair is to be used
exclusively for assistance during showering or
bathing, using a toilet or for transfer of persons
inside buildings.
The chair is not suitable for use in wet areas
(e.g. for saunas, areas with swimming pool-
like conditions), as surface discoloration and
adverse effects on the mechanical strength
can result.
Store the chair only in a dry condition!
The chairs are made of a corrosion-resistant frame
and four rubber-wheeled castors with locking
brakes for the back castors (back wheels equipped
with brakes). The armrests can be swivelled up.
The footrests are height-adjustable and can be
removed and folded away. The seat is height
adjustable and the chairs can be rolled over a
conventional bathroom toilet.
Pay attention to the ambient conditions when using
the chair. The chair may be used only for very
short times in conditions that are outside the limits.

physical limitations. The shower must be designed
so that the wheel chair can be rolled into it
unhindered.
1.4 Commode wheel chair
The commode wheel chair may be used where the
use of or access to a conventional toilet is no
