WARNING! Be aware that the
average temperature of the
heating pad ranges between
106°F - 118°F (41°C - 48°C) and
can be affected by the ambient
temperature of the room and
clothing worn by the user. Your
Provider recommends that the
heat units not be used for more
than 20 minutes at a time as
prolonged exposure may have
an adverse effect on sensitive
skin. However, you should
consult the physician about
how often you should use the
heat and massage options on
your chair.
WARNING! Exercise extreme
caution when using heat units
if you have difculty sensing
heat.
CHAIR PLACEMENT
Your chair should be placed near a standard
electrical outlet on dry, level ground where there
is ample room to allow for proper operation. We
recommend that you have the assistance of an
attendant when positioning the chair to avoid the
possibility of injury when lifting.
Follow these steps to position the chair in a safe manner:
1. Place the back of the chair 30 in. (76 cm) from the nearest obstruction while the chair is in the seated position.
This measurement may vary depending on model.
2. Adjust the leg levelers to stabilize the chair (fig. 3.1).
3. Install the batteries into the external transformer if applicable. Refer to “Battery Installation” for more information.
4. Position the external transformer on the floor in an open, well-ventilated area where it will not be an obstruction
or, if equipped, use the optional wall mount.
5. Position the low voltage connection cable where it will not be pinched between the frame and the lift mechanism.
6. Connect the low voltage connection cable to the external transformer if it is not already connected.
7. Plug the power cord directly into the electrical outlet. Do not use an extension cord! See fig 4.3.
WARNING! Do not connect an extension cord to the AC/DC converter or the battery
charger. A UL Listed or UL Recognized single outlet plug-style surge protector with
a minimum of 1000 joules of protection may be used. The surge protector MUST be
plugged directly into an electrical outlet.
z For units equipped with the heat and massage option,
connect the heat and massage harnesses to the chair.
z The heat pad(s) and massage units have been
factory installed on your chair. You should only need
to connect the harnesses to the chair. If you find
any further assembly is required with this system,
contact your authorized Provider immediately.
