unit on while it’s still in operation, we’ve programmed it to automatically stop
massaging 15 minutes after receiving your last command. To reactivate the
massage cushion, simply press any button. Any time you change massage
functions, the timer will reset. This special feature should not be considered
as a substitute for OFF. Always remember to turn your unit off when not in
use.

Instructions for Use

input jack, located along the side of the cushion. Attach the massage
cushion to most chairs for a luxurious massage as you read, rest or even

Not recommended
for use on wooden
surfaces as the
zipper may
damage the

receptacle end into the input jack, located along the side of the cushion.
