5 Preparing the bath lift for use
Before using the bath lift, check that all parts are complete and undamaged.
WARNING Do not use the bath lift if you see any damage.
5.1 Charging the handheld remote battery
WARNING Do not use the handheld remote if it is damaged or cracked.
NOTICE Only charge the battery in the handheld remote using the supplied charger. Only charge the battery in a dry room (not in the bathroom). Do not charge the battery while the bath lift is being used. Do not insert any conductive objects (e.g. knitting needles) into the jack socket of the handheld remote cable.
1. Insert the jack plug (figure 6,2) of the charger (figure 6,1) into the jack socket (figure 6,3) of the handheld remote (figure 6,4).
2. Connect the charger (figure 6,1) to the mains power supply. The LED (figure 6,5) will flicker briefly and then light up red. The LED will go out once the battery is fully charged.
Once the battery is charged:
1. Disconnect the charger (figure 6,1) from the mains power supply.
2. Disconnect the handheld remote (figure 6,4) from the charger.
Fully charge the battery in the handheld remote before every use. If the handheld remote is not connected to the charger, do not connect the charger to the mains power supply.

Only use the handheld remote to operate the bath lift.
If the bath lift has not been used for some time, charge the battery and then run the bath lift up and down as far as they will go one time without a load. Repeat this process every 3 months. This has a favourable effect on battery capacity and, therefore, on the service life of the battery.
5.2 Attaching the suction feet
WARNING If the suction feet are not correctly stuck in place, the bath lift may slip out of position. There is a risk of injury. Make sure that the suction feet are free from dirt and grease. Make sure that the suction feet are not bent.
1. Remove the backrest. To do so, take hold of the backrest (figure 7,1) with both hands close to the locking hooks (figure 7,2). Release the locking hooks from the holder (figure 7,3) by tugging gently.
CAUTION The drive unit foot mount contains the mechanism for releasing the seat plate lock. If the seat plate lock is accidentally released, the scissor lift can move freely. Limbs can be trapped and bruised. Do not reach into the drive unit foot mount (figure 7,5).
2. Turn over the seat unit (figure 8,3).
NOTICE If the suction feet are not screwed completely into the threaded sleeves and the bath lift is loaded, the base plate may be damaged. Screw the suction feet into the threaded sleeves as far as they will go.
3. Screw all four suction feet (figure 8,1) into the threaded sleeves (figure 8,2) in the base plate. The tabs on the suction feet must point outwards (see figure 8).
5.3 Installing the seat unit in the bath
WARNING If the suction feet are not correctly stuck in place, the bath lift may slip out of position. There is a risk of injury. Make sure that the floor of the bathtub is smooth, level, dry and clean. Do not install the bath lift in bathtubs with a structured surface (raised bumps). Remove non-slip mats (if present).
