Before using the chair, caregivers must have received adequate training from an LPA Medical representative or a trained third party. This instruction manual will be used as a reference for continuing education. It is strongly recommended to appoint a caregiver responsible for training and maintaining an up-to-date list of those who have received training.
In addition, LPA chairs are not designed for outdoor use. The Versatile chair must be used with accessories specifically designed for it by LPA Medical Inc. It must be used in accordance with recognized health and safety practices. INSPECTION BEFORE USE The chair can be shipped fully assembled or partially assembled.
The chair should not be pressure-washed or placed inside a washing machine. These practices may cause the chair components to rust internally, as well as deteriorate the adjustment components, thus voiding the LPA chair warranty. MAINTENANCE As long as the recommendations for use and cleaning are followed, the Versatile chair does not require preventive maintenance.
