4. Assembly Instructions

The Aidapt VB539 Solo Deluxe Shower Chair is designed for simple assembly. No tools are typically required.

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging.
2. Attach Seat: Align the clip-on seat with the frame and press down firmly until it securely clicks into place.
3. Attach Backrest: Slide the backrest into the designated slots on the frame until it locks.
4. Adjust Leg Height: Press the spring-loaded pins on each leg and slide the inner leg tube up or down to the desired height. Ensure all four legs are adjusted to the same height for stability. The legs can be precisely adjusted to compensate for uneven shower trays. Release the pin to lock the leg in position.
5. Final Check: Before first use, ensure all connections are secure and the chair is stable on a flat surface.

5. Operating Instructions

1. Placement: Position the shower chair securely within your shower area, ensuring all four non-slip ferrules are in full contact with the shower floor.
2. Height Adjustment: If further height adjustment is needed, refer to step 4 of the Assembly Instructions. Ensure the chair is empty and stable before adjusting.
3. Using Armrests: The integrated armrests can be lifted independently. To lift an armrest, gently pull it upwards. This facilitates easier side transfers onto and off the chair. Push it down firmly to lock it back into position for support during showering.
4. Sitting: Approach the chair carefully. Use the armrests for support as you slowly lower yourself onto the seat. Ensure you are fully seated before beginning your shower.
5. Standing: Use the armrests for support as you push up to a standing position. Take your time and ensure you have full balance before moving away from the chair.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and hygiene of your shower chair.

• Cleaning: Clean the chair regularly with a mild, non-abrasive household cleaner and warm water. Wipe dry immediately after cleaning to prevent water spots and maintain the finish.
• Removable Parts: The seat and backrest are removable for thorough cleaning. Simply unclip them from the frame, clean, and reattach securely.
• Rust-Resistant Frame: The aluminum frame is designed to be rust-resistant. However, prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or standing water may affect its finish.
• Inspection: Periodically check all bolts, screws, and connections to ensure they are tight. Inspect the non-slip ferrules on the legs for wear and tear; replace if necessary.
• Storage: Store the chair in a dry place when not in use for extended periods.

7. Troubleshooting

• Chair is Unstable/Wobbles:
  • Ensure all four legs are adjusted to the same height.
  • Verify that the spring-loaded pins on each leg are fully engaged in the adjustment holes.
  • Check if the shower floor is uneven. Adjust leg heights slightly to compensate if possible, ensuring stability.
• Armrests do not stay up/down:
  • Ensure the armrests are pushed firmly into their locked position when down, or fully lifted when up.
  • Inspect the armrest hinge mechanism for any obstructions or damage.
• Seat/Backrest feels loose:
  • Ensure the clip-on seat and backrest are fully engaged and clicked into their respective positions on the frame.
