Setting up the bathlift in the bathtub

CAUTION!
The seat may slip if the suction cups do not
adhere properly.
●
Before you set up the bathlift, clean the
bathtub and the suction cups.
●
Do not move the bathlift once you have
installed it in the bathtub.
Important!
●
The suction cups have to be attached.
●
The battery must be fully charged.
● When lifting, please remember that the
bathlift weighs about 11.7 kg (without bat-
tery).
●
If your bath has a handrail, use the sideflap
diverter (optional).
1. Place the bathlift (2, fig. 5) onto the base of the
empty bathtub. The spindle foot retainer (3, fig. 5)
must point towards the end of the bath opposite
the drain (1, fig. 5).
CAUTION!
There is a risk of damage if the spindle foot
slips out.
After you have folded the backrest up,
check that the spindle foot is in the spindle
foot retainer and is locked.
2. Lift the backrest (1, fig. 6) at the head-end and
fold it all the way backwards (fig. 6). The spindle
foot (2, fig. 6) is in the spindle foot retainer (3,
fig. 6) and locks automatically.
3. Fold the sideflaps outwards (fig. 7).
4. Insert the charged battery (2, fig. 8) into the guide
(3, fig. 8) in the backrest from above.
5. Push the battery down completely. It should click
in.
The bathlift is now ready for use.
