5. Operating Instructions

Using your HOMLAND Shower Chair safely and effectively:

• Placement: Position the shower chair in your bathtub or shower stall. Ensure all four non-slip feet are firmly on the surface and the chair does not wobble.
• Height Adjustment: To adjust the seat height, press the spring-loaded pin on each leg and slide the leg extension up or down to the desired height. Ensure the pin locks into place in one of the six adjustment holes. Adjust all four legs to the same height for stability. The seat height can range from 14 to 19 inches.
