AKKULIFT®-Product Description

Manythanks for decidingfor AKKULIFT®, designed byPeter Endres GmbH & Co. KG.

This sturdy, high-qualityproduct will simplifygettingin and out ofthe bath fromnowon.

AKKULIFT®mainlyconsists ofhigh-quality,recyclable

light-weight plastic. It is therefore easyto transport,

easyto store and simple to use -at home, at the

nursinghome, or on journeys.

The storagebatteryis accommodated in arobust ABS

plastic housing.It can be inserted without anydifficulty

into the compartment in the backrest.

Usingthe manual control, which floats on the water,

comfortable raisingand loweringis possible in the

normal sittingposition. AKKULIFT®can also be

adjusted to variable positions.

The driveis housed in asealed hood, the control

electronics in the sealed manual control. It is therefore

also possible to use AKKULIFT®with the shower

facilityin the bath.

The sturdycollapsible frameenables the chair to be

raised and lowered from8to 42 cm.The liftingrod

effects the raising/loweringmovement ofthe seat top

after pushingthe Up- and Down-buttons.

The backrest and drive, which can be tilted forward, is notched into the seat ofthe chair and

automaticallylocks when it is raised. Therefore, the backrest cannot be tilted unintentionally.

Due to an integrated power control, AKKULIFT®onlylowers ifthere is still sufficient power

available to raise it.

baths. Duringthese baths, the green control lamp ofthe manual control is illuminated.

As soon as the charginglevel of the storagebatteryfalls to factory-defined value, the colour

ofthe control lampchanges to yellow,and the lampflashes slowly,which means that there

recharged accordingto the instructions given under “Chargingthe StorageBattery“on page

17.

Ifthe device is used duringthe yellowphase ofthe control lampofthe storagebattery,the

indicates that the liftwill nowmoveupward to ensure that the handicapped person can leave

the bath safely.Ifthis condition occurs, the storagebatterymust be charged immediately
