VI. COMFORT ADJUSTMENTS
Power Elevating Seat Option
Your Jazzy may be equipped with a power elevating seat actuator. See figure 19. The power elevating seat is equipped
with a system that reduces the power chairs speed by one half whenever the seat is elevated more than 1-2 inches.
The power elevating seat can enhance the capabilities of the Jazzy in several ways:
n By elevating the seat, your level of reach is extended to allow more freedom and independence in many environments.
n You can easily adjust the Jazzys seat height to any surface to which you want to transfer. The seat swivels 90 degrees
to whichever side the joystick is located.
n By raising your seat, you are closer to the eye level of standing persons. This provides better interaction.
For all the benefits your elevating seat can provide you, there are limitations. Observe the following precautions in order to
ensure safe use of the Jazzy Elevating Seat option.
n Read and understand this owners manual thoroughly before operating the Jazzy.
n Always fasten the positioning belt when operating the elevating seat.
n Operate the Jazzy only on a flat level surface whenever the elevating seat is raised from its lowest position.
WARNING! The power elevating seat option is intended for use on a level surface only. Never
raise the seat from its lowest position on an inclined surface. Failure to heed this warning can
result in the Jazzy tipping over and causing injury.
WARNING! Never raise the seat from its lowest position when operating your Jazzy on bumpy or
uneven surfaces. Failure to heed this warning can result in the Jazzy tipping over and causing
injury.
WARNING! Never raise the power elevating seat while your Jazzy is in the freewheel mode.
CAUTION! Always fasten the positioning belt when operating the power elevating seat. The power
elevating seat option is equipped with a system that reduces your Jazzys speed by one half when the seat
is elevated more than 1 2 inches. Always check to be sure this system is operating properly before using
your Jazzy.
NOTE: Be sure you are on a flat level surface before activating the power elevating seat.
