USE OF THE COMMODE

Please read and understand the following cautions regarding the usage of the

commode.

If it is necessary to lift the commode, place your hands on the tubular

metal frame beneath the blow moulded seat.

With all riser chairs or commodes consider any risk that the mechanism

may trap a part of the user’s body, his/her clothes, or items such as

walking sticks. Consider also the risk of entrapping other people,

especially children or pets.

The remote button should not be held more than required when in the

maximum lift up position.

Do not allow children or unauthorised persons to play with or use the

commode.

Do not rock back and forth or sideways when using the commode as

this will cause excessive stress and possible damage and failure which

may cause injury.

Do not use the commode outside the home or on uneven surfaces (such

as in the garden) as this will cause stress to the legs and possible

damage which may cause injury.

Do not place fingers or foreign objects into any of the exposed tubular

sections as this can lead to serious injury.

When operating the brake mechanism, do not stamp on the lever as this

may cause damage to the mechanism and possible failure.

Castors should be locked to prevent movement when the commode is in

use in the lift assist mode of operation. Clients should be closely supervised at

all times when using the commode.

CHARGING THE LIFT-ASSIST COMMODE

It is recommended that the battery pack is fully

charged prior to first use. Charging time from flat

to full is approx 4 hrs.

The battery pack is charged through the handset

by connecting the power lead to the handset as

shown (Fig. 6).

It is recommended that the battery pack is

charged at least weekly in domestic use, or daily

in institutional use.

The handset should be protected from water ingress and should not

be submersed in water.

The lift assist commode should never be charged whilst in the bathroom or any

other wet environment.
