To sit down in the chair:
1. Stand beside the chair and press down on the front LIFT button and hold, or press the back
toggle down and hold. Release the button or toggle when the chair reaches a comfortable height
to sit against, depending on your personal needs and preference.
2. Step back into the chair and sit in the center of the seat while keeping your feet firmly
on the floor.
3. Press down on the front RECLINE button and hold, or press the back toggle up and hold to lower
the chair. Release the button or toggle when the chair reaches the seated, home position. There
is a two second delay that occurs when the chair arrives at its seated, home position; the chair
starts the recline function after the delay.
To recline the chair:
There are multiple modes of operation to recline the chair. The back and legrest recline movements
are both synchronous and independent. The back and legrest recline are programmed to move
together using the front, large round LIFT and RECLINE button at the top of the hand wand, or
the toggle on the back of the hand wand. The back and legrest recline are programmed to
move independently using the front, oblong BACK and LEGREST buttons. The independent
operation allows you to recline the back without raising the legrest, raise the legrest without
reclining the back, or make individual adjustments to the back and legrest recline, which are
outside the synchronous movement.
1. With the chair in the seated position, to recline the back and raise the legrest at the same
time, press and hold the front, large round RECLINE button, or press the back toggle up and
hold. To recline only the back or raise only the legrest, press and hold down on the right side
of the appropriate front, oblong BACK or LEGREST button. Release the button or toggle when
you are in a comfortable position.
2. Make adjustments to the back and legrest recline as preferred.
3. To return the chair to the upright, seated (home) position, press and hold down on the front,
large round LIFT button, or press and hold the back toggle down. Release the button or toggle
when you reach the upright, seated (home) position. There is a two second delay that occurs
when the chair arrives at its seated, home position; the chair starts the lift function after the
delay when the front, large round button or back toggle is pressed and held. Additionally, you
may press and hold down on left side of the front, oblong BACK button, followed by the
LEGREST button, releasing the button when the movement reaches its end of travel and stops.
To stand up from the chair:
There are multiple modes of operation for the lift feature. Both the front, large round LIFT button
at the top and the back toggle provide a coordinated movement of the lift function. The back must
be fully upright and the legrest fully closed for the lift feature to function.
1. Firmly position your feet on the floor to maintain balance and prevent sliding or falling. Press
down on the front LIFT button and hold, or press the back toggle down and hold, to raise the
chair to the standing position.
2. Release the button or toggle when the chair reaches a height that enables you to comfortably
stand. Carefully exit the chair.
3. Return the chair to the seated (home) position if you will be away from the chair for an
extended period of time. Press down on the front RECLINE button and hold, or press the back
toggle up and hold to lower the chair. Release the button or toggle when the chair is in its
seated (home) position.
NOTE: The system includes a built-in two second delay that occurs when the chair arrives at its
seated, home position. The chair starts the reclining function immediately following the two second delay.

Platinum Luxury-Lift®with 6-Motor Massage and Heat Operation
The 1PM offers multiple modes of operation. The large, round LIFT and RECLINE button on the front
of the hand wand AND the toggle on the back of the hand wand provide coordinated movements.
The LIFT and RECLINE button and back toggle will operate all functions of the chair in one fluid
movement from sitting, reclining and legrest extension, back to the upright position and standing.
To sit down in the chair:
1. Stand beside the chair and press down on the front LIFT button and hold, or press the back
toggle down and hold. Release the button or toggle when the chair reaches a comfortable height
to sit against, depending on your personal needs and preference.
2. Step back into the chair and sit in the center of the seat while keeping your feet firmly
on the floor.
3. Press down on the front RECLINE button and hold, or press the back toggle up and hold to lower
the chair. Release the button or toggle when the chair reaches the seated, home position. There
is a two second delay that occurs when the chair arrives at its seated, home position; the chair
starts the recline function after the delay.
To recline the chair:
As with the lift feature, there are multiple modes of operation to recline the chair. The back and
legrest recline movements are both synchronous and independent. The back and legrest recline
are programmed to move together using the front, large round LIFT and RECLINE button at the
top of the hand wand, or the toggle on the back of the hand wand. The back and legrest recline
are programmed to move independently using the front, oblong BACK and LEGREST buttons. The
independent operation allows you to recline the back without raising the legrest, raise the legrest
without reclining the back, or make individual adjustments to the back and legrest recline, which
are outside the synchronous movement.
1. With the chair in the seated position, to recline the back and raise the legrest at the same
time, press and hold the front, large round RECLINE button, or press the back toggle up and
hold. To recline only the back or raise only the legrest, press and hold down on the right side
of the appropriate front, oblong BACK or LEGREST button. Release the button or toggle when
you are in a comfortable position.
2. Make adjustments to the back and legrest recline as preferred.
3. To return the chair to the upright, seated (home) position, press and hold down on the front,
large round LIFT button, or press and hold the back toggle down. Release the button or toggle
when you reach the upright, seated (home) position. There is a two second delay that occurs
when the chair arrives at its seated, home position; the chair starts the lift function after the
delay when the front, large round button or back toggle is pressed and held. Additionally, you
may press and hold down on left side of the front, oblong BACK button, followed by the
LEGREST button, releasing the button when the movement reaches its end of travel and stops.
To stand up from the chair:
There are multiple modes of operation for the lift feature. Both the front, large round LIFT button
at the top and the back toggle provide a coordinated movement of the lift function. The back must
be fully upright and the legrest fully closed for the lift feature to function.
1. Firmly position your feet on the floor to maintain balance and prevent sliding or falling. Press
down on the front LIFT button and hold, or press the back toggle down and hold, to raise the
chair to the standing position.
2. Release the button or toggle when the chair reaches a height that enables you to comfortably
stand. Carefully exit the chair.
3. Return the chair to the seated (home) position if you will be away from the chair for an
extended period of time. Press down on the front RECLINE button and hold, or press the back
toggle up and hold to lower the chair. Release the button or toggle when the chair is in its
seated (home) position.
NOTE: The system includes a built-in two second delay that occurs when the chair arrives at its
seated, home position. The chair starts the reclining function immediately following the two second delay.

Troubleshooting
®
Power Transformer Over-Current Protection
The Platinum series lift chairs are equipped with over-current protection. This feature prevents damage
to the motors and electronics if there is an overload, short circuit or ground fault. Should the system
detect an over-current, the system shuts down and the chair stops functioning.
If the over-current protection is activated, stop pressing the button or toggle in use. The system should
reset automatically. If you believe the chair is not being overloaded, or experiencing a short circuit or
ground fault, you may restart the function of the chair after the button or toggle has been released.
Should the over-current protection trip repeatedly, refer to the Troubleshooting section in this manual.
Additionally, the power supply includes a green LED status light to indicate power is being supplied
to the system. If the light is not illuminated, no power is being supplied to the system. Refer to the
Troubleshooting section in this manual if the power supply is plugged in, but the green light is
not illuminated.
Automatic Homing Details:
The lift chair system is programmed to detect the position of the chair. In the event of a power
interruption, the automatic homing feature will return a lifted or reclined chair to its home (neutral)
position when power is restored. Depending on the chair’s position when power is restored, the homing
program may completely recline the chair before it is returned to the home (neutral) position. The hand
wand’s backlighting will not be illuminated when the chair is cycling in the automatic program. If the chair
is already in the home position, the automatic homing feature will not activate and the chair
will not move.
Avoid pressing any buttons or the toggle on the hand wand while the chair is operating in the automatic
mode, finding the home position. If a button or the toggle is pressed during the automatic homing, the
backlights will flash, indicating the program has been interrupted, and the chair is not in normal operation.
If the program is interrupted (hand wand backlights are flashing), do one of the following to manually
reset the system:
1. Unplug the power transformer from the electrical outlet, wait at least (3) seconds, then plug the
power transformer directly into the power outlet.
-- OR --
2. Press and release one button or the toggle on the hand wand. This will close the legrest if extended.
Then, press and hold the RECLINE button to lower the chair in a descending motion, which allows it
to find its position. Once the chair finds its position, the backlights stop flashing and the legrest
function is available—the chair is in normal operation mode.
WARNING
• Do not attempt to disassemble or service the pump or motor; no serviceable parts are
inside. Contact your La-Z-Boy
• Check the condition of the power transformers, electrical cords, plugs and connectors
monthly. Keep the power transformers and electrical cords away from heat sources.
Never operate the unit with a damaged power transformer, electrical cord, plug or
connector. Contact your La-Z-Boy
• The 1PL and 1PM lift chairs are intended for a single occupant, not exceeding 350 pounds.
Do not operate the chair with more than one occupant in or on any part of the chair.
Troubleshooting for Legrest Operation
If the legrest stops moving while closing, and all other functionality of the lift chair is operating,
the legrest may have encountered an obstruction.
1. Check to make sure there are no obstructions. Lift and hold the legrest up, look for obstructions
and remove them.
2. The legrest uses spring tension to close, and will close quickly when the obstruction is
removed and the legrest is released. Release the legrest slowly to prevent it from slamming shut.
If there are no obstructions and the legrest still does not close properly, contact your La-Z-Boy
dealer for service.
Troubleshooting for Lift and Recline Operation
If the lift or recline features do not work, check the following:
1. Make sure the 120 volt power cord is plugged into an electrical outlet.
2. Check the power transformer to make sure the green LED power indicator light is on.
3. Make sure the electrical outlet is working. For example, make sure there are no blown
fuses or tripped circuit breakers.
4. Make sure all the connections are secure; refer to the Assembly Instructions.
5. Make sure the electrical cords are not crimped or pinched. Make sure the electric
cord or plug is not damaged.
6. Make sure the operating capacity has not been exceeded and there is only one
occupant in the chair; refer to the Operating Instructions.
