- Réglage de la hauteur : The seat height can be adjusted to 6 cm, 10 cm, or 15 cm above the original toilet seat height. Refer to the specific adjustment mechanism on your unit, typically involving pins or levers, to select the desired height.
- Réglage de l'angle : The seat angle can also be adjusted to provide a more comfortable and ergonomic position. This allows for fine-tuning the seating experience, potentially making it higher or lower at the front or back.
- Accoudoirs rabattables : The armrests are designed to fold up and down. This feature allows for easier transfer onto and off the toilet, especially from a wheelchair or for caregivers assisting the user. To fold, lift the armrest until it locks in the upright position. To lower, release the locking mechanism and gently push it down.
