To join in with Duncan Mahoney, the Genie that we have will go into alarm
if it sits still for too long. It¹s a quick fix, simply turn it off and
on again, and it can be done from either the floor or the basket using the
emergency stop switch. It¹s a good reminder that you¹ve left the lift on,
I suppose, and can save battery life. It could also alert other people in
the building if someone was working alone and had an accident, leading to
the lift sitting for a short while. Usually though, it¹s as if the lift
is saying,²Yo, dummy, you left me on. Did you want a dead battery?
Because that¹s how you get a dead battery.²
