ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS
Your Pride power lift 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 exter-
nal transformer, batteries (not included) and hand control.
Keep these areas free from moisture at all times.
WARNING! Keep all electrical compo-
nents free from moisture at all times to
prevent shock and/or electrical hazard.
External Transformer: Connects to a standard electri-
cal outlet to provide power to the power lift 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 power lift recliner to an upright or semi-upright position in
the event of a power failure. For those models equipped with a battery 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 button in the UP position as soon as possible. Maintain a steady pressure on the button 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 power lift recliner. Refer
to V. "Operation" for more information. The hand control is equipped with a quick-release connector (Fig. 3.5),
which enables the user to detach the hand control from the power lift recliner, disabling all functions of the
hand control.
