6.12.2.2 Emergency lowering device

The electric stand-up function is equipped with a button for emergency lowering.
With the help of the emergency lowering device, the stand-up device can be lowered or moved to the standing
position even when the control unit is turned off or not operational. The following application scenarios are conceiv­
able (examples):
• If the control unit fails, the user can bring the seat back to the sitting position.
• If the battery is under voltage, the qualified personnel can bring the seat to the standing position for battery
replacement even though the control unit is not operational.
The emergency lowering device is only active when the control unit is turned off or not operational.
In case of mechanical defects on parts of the seating unit and/or a failure of the seat actuators, the emergency
lowering device cannot be used.
INFORMATION
► Please note that emergency lowering cannot be used when the batteries are drained entirely.
► Have the power wheelchair inspected by qualified personnel after a control unit failure or if the battery is
under voltage.
The emergency lowering button is located underneath the seat surface on the left front side (see fig. 21). When the
button is released, the stand-up device stops at the position it has reached.
