Operating toggle

Your Minivator stairlift is operated by
simply pressing and holding the operating
toggle in the direction you wish to travel
(Figure 6). The stairlift will automatically
stop when the toggle is released or the
stairlift has reached the end of its travel.
PLEASE NOTE:
In the interest of safety, initial activation of
the stairlift is delayed by 1 second from
pressing and holding the operating toggle,
to avoid accidental operation. If the toggle
is released while the lift is in motion, the
lift will stop and a delay of 1 second will
occur before the toggle will re-start the lift.
When changing the direction of travel the
delay will be 3 seconds before the lift
begins to move.
Figure 7

Remote control

The remote control (Figure 7) is used to
call the lift to either the top/bottom of the
stairs or to operate a powered folding
hinge where fitted. This control may also
be used by an attendant where the user is
unable to operate the stairlift themselves.
The attendant should always remain off
the staircase until the stairlift is
stationary.
