Installation Steps (General Guidance):

1. Power Off: Ensure the stairlift's main power supply is completely disconnected and turned off at the circuit breaker.
2. Locate Battery Compartment: Refer to your stairlift's specific manual to locate the battery compartment, which is typically at the base or under the seat.
3. Remove Old Batteries: Carefully disconnect the old batteries, noting the polarity (+ and -) of the connections. Remove them from the compartment.
4. Insert New Batteries: Place the new Tuklye T565 batteries into the compartment. Ensure they fit securely.
5. Connect New Batteries: Connect the new batteries, ensuring correct polarity. Typically, red wires connect to positive (+) terminals and black wires to negative (-) terminals. Double-check all connections for tightness.
6. Secure Compartment: Close and secure the battery compartment cover.
7. Restore Power: Reconnect the stairlift's main power supply.
8. Test Functionality: Perform a test run of the stairlift to ensure it operates correctly and the batteries are charging.

Note: Specific installation procedures may vary by stairlift model. Always consult your stairlift's original instruction manual for detailed steps.

5. Operating Instructions

Once installed, the Tuklye T565 batteries will power your stairlift. Stairlifts typically have an automatic charging system that keeps the batteries topped up when the lift is parked at a charging point (usually at the top or bottom of the stairs).

Normal Operation:

• Ensure the stairlift is parked at its designated charging station when not in use to allow the batteries to recharge.
• Avoid completely draining the batteries, as this can reduce their lifespan.
• If the stairlift is not used for an extended period, ensure it remains connected to power to maintain battery charge.

6. Maintenance

Proper maintenance can extend the life of your Tuklye T565 batteries.

• Regular Charging: Always allow the stairlift to return to its charging point after use.
• Cleanliness: Keep the battery compartment clean and free of dust and debris. Do not use liquid cleaners directly on the batteries.
• Temperature: Store and operate the batteries within recommended temperature ranges (typically room temperature) to prevent degradation. Avoid extreme heat or cold.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the battery terminals and connections for any signs of corrosion or looseness.
• Long-Term Storage: If the stairlift will be unused for several months, ensure the batteries are fully charged before storage and periodically recharged (e.g., every 3-6 months) to prevent deep discharge.
