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.
