ACORN Superglide Stairlifts are controlled by, either the mechanical 'joystick' fitted to the seat arm, or by way of the infra red remote control handset, two of which are supplied.
The mechanical controls over-ride the remote controls.
The remote controls are ideal when there are 2 users in the house so that the lift can be 'sent' or 'called' up - and downstairs.
The wireless design means that there is no unsightly wall mounted wiring or control stations.
Swivel seat with locking catch
The stairlift seat swivels, and locks in postion, making mounting and dismounting from the stairlift easy and safe.
The stairlift will not operate unless the seat is in the correct riding position.
There are 5 surfaces/edges that stop the stairlift in event of a collision
with any obstruction on the stairway.
These are located around the footrest, and on the top and bottom of the carriage.
Pressure sensitive safety surfaces
Diagnostic Digital Display
Mounted on the carriage of the stairlift is a digital display,
which shows clearly when the lift is in the normal operating position, and also provide invaluable diagnostic information in the unlikely event of a fault with your stairlift.
