HOW TO USE BATH MAT AND MOTOR HOUSING
1)Remove bath mat, motor housing, soft surface mat, and air hose from packaging. Do not fill tub first.
2)Insert one end of the air hose into the female receptacle on one end of the mat. Press in firmly.
3)Place mat into tub with hose end towards the front of tub. Press mat firmly down to engage suction cups on bottom of mat. Suction cups may lose grip on textured surfaces or tubs with some dirt buildup. Clean area and moisten suction cups to increase suction cup grip.
4)Place motor housing on the floor conveniently between the bathtub and electrical outlet. Never place the motor housing where it can fall into the tub. Have the motor housing face the user in the tub, as the infrared Remote Control needs to be aimed by the user towards the motor housing.
5)Plug motor housing into 120 V AC outlet. See ALCI operating instructions to familiarize yourself with ALCI use and function.
6)Insert the other end of the air hose into the motor housing.
7)Test the Unit by pushing rocker switch on the front of appliance to "HIGH". You should hear the motor turn on.
8)Test operation of the Remote Control by pushing the rocker switch to the "REMOTE" posi- tion. Now press the remote’s power "ON" button; motor will run on the "HIGH" setting. Try other settings to become familiar with the unit's operation. (See “How To Use Remote Control”)
9)Now fill the bathtub with the amount and temperature of bath water desired. Turn on unit to desired setting.
10)Exercise extra caution getting into and out of the bathtub.

Then check operation by aiming the remote at the motor housing, and selecting a function. If the remote still does not operate the unit, make sure that the ALCI "reset" button is engaged. Now check to make sure that the batteries in the remote are fresh, and making good contact in the battery housing.
