Archimedes

Fitting the Archimedes in the bath

• Before placing the Archimedes in a bath, check
that the surface where the suction cups will be
sitting is clean and free from bath oil and cleaning
residue. Remove anti-slip matting from this area.
WARNING: The suction cups may not adhere
properly on textured and non-slip areas of a bath.
• Remove the actuator and seat section from the
base (see "Getting Started"). Moisten each of the
suction cups and place the base section as close to
the back slope of the bath as possible. Reposition
the actuator in the socket at the back of the base
unit (A fig.5).
• Fold the transfer flaps onto the seat and slide the
seat section onto the base section.
• Position the top end of the actuator into the slot
in the latch (B) at the back of the seat section and
make sure that it 'clicks' into place. NOTE: Ensure
that the seat can slide freely up and down before
using the Archimedes (Fig 6).
• Plug the hand control into the actuator lead and
close the retaining clip (A fig 7).
• Fill the bath with water at a suitable temperature.

Hand Control

The hand control is a completely sealed unit containing
a rechargeable battery and battery state indicator light;
it contains no user serviceable parts. DO NOT attempt
to open.

Battery State Indicator

When either the 'Up' or 'Down' buttons are pressed, the
indicator light (A fig.8) shows the state of the battery
as follows:
GREEN - OK to use.
FLASHING GREEN - OK to use but the battery needs
to be recharged after this bath.
RED - The battery needs recharging before use. The
seat will not lower. NOTE: The microprocessor
in the hand control will not allow the seat to be
lowered if it detects that there will not be enough
battery power to raise it again.
The battery is not replaceable. When it reaches the
end of its working life, indicated by failure to accept
or retain charge (frequently showing red on the battery
state indicator), the complete hand control will need to
be replaced with a new one. It should be disposed of
in accordance with local regulations or returned to your
supplier or to Mangar International for safe disposal.
DO NOT dispose of the hand control with your normal
household waste.
