It is not possible to use the hoist while the battery is charging. 1. Finish the current lift in progress. 2. Move the ceiling hoist to the charging station. 3. Assure that the hand control and charging station are clean and dry before charging starts. 4. Place the hand control into the charging station and make sure that the power supply adapter is plugged in. A blinking orange led on the hand control indicates it is charging. During the charging process, the LEDs of the hand control are permanently on and blinking. 5. When fully charged, the indicator lights on the hand control turn green (static light). As long as the ceiling hoist is not in use, leave the hand control in the charging station. The charging LEDs do not go into sleep mode until the charge has reached full. 6. To use the ceiling hoist, remove the hand control from the charger. Keeping the batteries charged guarantees hoist functionality and maintains the battery to ensure a long lifetime. If the ceiling hoist will not be used for more than 1 week, Invacare recommends disconnecting the charger and pulling the emergency stop. The charger is connected to a power supply adapter which, in turn, connects to the mains with a mains plug. Make sure that the mains plug is accessible and can be unplugged if required. 60133893-A...
