FCC REGULATIONS This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
FOR YOUR SAFETY • Read and understand the operating instructions, and all safety precautions prior to using the CRE-2110. • Be sure stairs are clear of objects before operating the stairway elevator. • Always be aware of the surface onto which you are stepping as you get on and off the stairway elevator. • Avoid carrying items with you on the stairway elevator which could hinder movement of the elevator up and down the stairs. • Do not wear LOOSE clothing that could interfere with elevator movement.
FOR YOUR SAFETY Each stairway elevator is designed to travel down the stairway at a slightly slower speed than is the case when travelling UP. The footrest is equipped with obstruction sensors which stop the carriage if an obstacle is encountered on the stairs. If this should occur, press the opposite side of the UP/DOWN rocker control switch (on the armrest) to run the carriage in the opposite direction. Clear the obstacle from the stairway or rail then resume travel in the desired direction.

CIRCUIT BREAKER The CRE-2110 includes an ON/OFF switch with a built-in circuit breaker. The circuit breaker protects the battery, controller and motor circuits in the stairway elevator carriage. ON/OFF switch with built-in circuit breaker ©2010,2009 Bruno Independent Living Aids, Inc.® It is unlikely that this circuit breaker will trip during normal use. However, if the elevator becomes inoperative, check the circuit breaker as a first troubleshooting step. Reset it, if necessary.
SEATING The CRE-2110 seat assembly (with standard armrests) is designed to swivel a total of 135 degrees.

Press and hold the switch for a moment to begin the gentle acceleration of the stairway elevator to operating speed. Depressing and holding the rocker switch will cause the carriage to move until the carriage stops automatically at the upper or lower end of the stair rail, or until the switch is released. ©2010,2009 Bruno Independent Living Aids, Inc.
