ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS

Your Pride Riser Recliner is equipped with a low voltage DC motor
system that reduces the standard household alternating current of
90V AC - 264V AC to direct current (24/39V DC). The electrical
components include the external transformer, batteries (not
included) and hand control. Keep these areas free from moisture
at all times.
WARNING!
components free from moisture at all
times to prevent shock and/or electrical
hazard.
External Transformer: Connects to a standard electrical outlet
to provide power to the riser recliner. The transformer may be
equipped with an LED indicator, which shows green when
power to the transformer is on.
The external transformer may also come equipped with mounting brackets that allow the transformer to be
mounted to the wall directly under the standard electrical outlet. The screws must be mounted to the wall
stud for security. Refer to "Appendix B" for a mounting diagram.
NOTE: Pride is not responsible for damage due to improper installation.
Batteries: Provide the power needed to return the riser recliner to an upright or semi-upright position in the
event of a power failure. For those models equipped with a battery backup system, the batteries (not
included) must be installed into the external transformer. See IV. "Assembly/Disassembly."
NOTE: The batteries will provide power for only a short period of time after power is removed
from the system, so it is important to act quickly in the event of a power failure. Engage and hold
the up/down switch in the UP position as soon as possible. Maintain a steady pressure on the
switch to avoid excessive draw from the battery and achieve the most amount of lift. Keep in
mind that the amount of lift the batteries will be able to provide is affected by user weight and
battery condition.
Hand Control: Contains the controls needed to operate the various functions of the riser recliner. Refer to V.
"Operation" for more information. The hand control may be equipped with a quick-release connector (Fig. 3.5),
which enables the user to detach the hand control from the riser recliner, disabling all functions of the hand control.
