to reduce overall operating noise.
Moving the unit Using the Wheels
• Tilt the seat back by holding the pipes on both sides of the legrest and
allow the unit to roll on the wheels located at the back.
• Returning the massage heads to the retracted position and the seat
back to the upright position makes it easier to move the unit.

on the floor and move it slowly.
* Do not move the unit when someone is sitting in it.
Carrying the unit
• When carrying the unit, have one person hold the pipes on both sides
of the legrest and the other person lift the chair using the back cover
handles located on the back of the unit.
* As the unit may mark the floor if dropped, please ensure that you hold
the legrest and handles securely.
37
CAUTION
• Slowly sit down after checking the position of the massage heads.

• When the massage does not feel strong enough, lift up the
pillow and carry out the massage again.
ADJUSTING THE PILLOW
ADJUSTING THE SEAT

This feels as though the thumbs of both
hands are being used to work on the
acupressure points. The initial strong
push is followed by a short pause to give
the impression of a professional shiatsu
masseur. This type of massage is ideal
for people with tight muscles and pain
who want a point massage.
Shiatsu Tap A
This motion resembles the outer edge of
the fingers being used to tap in a rhythmic
motion that is designed to penetrate into
the body and relax the muscles. It is ideal
to use on the fine muscles of the neck or
as a finishing massage.
This motion is like the palms of both
hands being used to press and rub
over a wide area from both sides of
the body. This type of massage is
ideal for someone wanting a broad
massage on the back or lower back.
Swedish Tap B
This motion is like a fist used in a rhythmic
pattern to provide a solid tapping that is
designed to eliminate stubborn stiffness
and tiredness. This kind of massage is
ideal for thick muscles such as those found
in the shoulders.
Whole Back Roll
The massage heads become rollers that
roll over the back up and down from the
neck to the lower back to stretch the back
muscles and relieve tension. It is ideal to
use at the beginning of a massage as it is
relatively soft.
Knead
With this massage, a strong push is
followed by a quick release in a rhythm
that is designed to relax stiff muscles. It
is ideal for loosening stiff muscles in the
neck and shoulders.
Regional Roll
The massage heads become rollers that
roll over the back muscles, but this time in
a specified location. It is ideal for
combining with Knead, Tap B and
Vibration.
Vibration
The minute vibrations are designed to
relax even the tensest body. Combined
with a rolling massage, etc., this type of
massage is ideal for the whole back.

Problem Cause and Remedy
Motor Noises
• The motor groans when it comes under load.
• There is excessive noise during Tapping.
(The noise is greater at the top of the unit.)
• The motor sounds strange when adjusting massage
intensity and width.
• There is a rattling sound when the massage heads
move up or down.
• There is a rubbing sound produced by the massage
heads rubbing on the seat fabric.
• There is a rubbing sound produced by fabric rubbing
on fabric.
• The gears produce a strange sound.
• There is a strange sound when the massage heads
move in and out.
• Air massage-related sounds (EP1260)
There is a hissing sound of air escaping.
There is a humming sound from the pump.
• The legrest rattles.
PROBLEM
TROUBLESHOOTING
These sounds are perfectly normal and will not have
any effect on the operation of the unit.
H
When the power switch is turned on there is
a humming sound.
This is the sound of air escaping from the air bag.
(This is not an abnormal sound.)
H
The massage heads stop during operation.
When the massage heads are raised or lowered, if
they come into contact with a wall or other obstruction,
in the interests of safety the massage heads may
stop moving.
In such a situation, move the chair or
remove the obstruction and start the massage again.
If all markings and buttons on the controller start to
flash, which is extremely unusual, turn off the power
switch, wait for approximately 10 seconds and then
turn the power switch on again.
If excessive force is applied to the massage heads
during operation, in the interests of safety the
massage heads may stop moving. If this occurs,
raise your body slightly before restarting it.
If all markings and buttons on the controller start to
flash, which is extremely unusual, turn off the power
switch, wait for approximately 10 seconds and then
turn the power switch on again.
H
Nothing can be felt when using Tap A, Tap B
or Vibration.
If the massage heads are not touching your body
then you will, of course, feel nothing. Therefore,
please make sure that your body comes into close
contact with the massage heads.
H
The massage heads do not come up to the
shoulder or neck.
The position of the shoulders is incorrect.

• Rub the synthetic leather lightly using a soft and dry cloth for
normal cleaning.
(Please do not use a cloth containing any kind of chemicals.)
• If the leather becomes dirty, apply a 3–5% solution of a mild
detergent in warm water using a soft cloth, tapping the
surface to remove it. Afterwards, thoroughly rinse the cloth
and use it to remove the detergent, wipe it gently with a dry
cloth, and then leave it to dry naturally.
(Please do not use a hair dryer in an attempt to dry the
synthetic leather more quickly.)
• If the synthetic leather is allowed to come into contact with
vinyl for an extended period of time, this may cause it to
become discolored.

OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To avoid damaging the unit.
1. The seat is designed for a maximum user weight of 120kg (264lbs). Exceeding the maximum weight may
cause permanent damage to the massage mechanism and/or other components of the unit.
Any such damage is deemed to be user abuse and as such is not covered under the limited warranty.
2. Do not sit on or drop the controller. Do not pull the controller cord or the power cord. Be careful not to catch
the cord of the controller between the armrest and the back of the seat.
3. Do not treat the unit roughly, such as by turning the seat on its side or turning the seat over and standing on it.
Only use the unit on a flat and stable surface.
4. Be gentle on the fabric.
• Keep sharp or pointed objects away from the seat fabric and be careful not to drop lit cigarettes, ashes or
matches on the seat.
• Exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading or discoloration of the fabric.
5. If the unit functions abnormally, immediately turn off the power and have the unit checked by an authorized
service center.
6. Do not attempt to repair the unit yourself.
7. Do not repeatedly operate any switch quickly as doing so may cause it to malfunction.
8. Some noise may be heard coming from the unit while in use. This is due to the structure of the unit and is
completely normal.
9. Make sure that there are no obstacles behind the seat before reclining. The seat can be reclined to a
maximum angle of 170-degrees but may malfunction if the seat back hits a wall or some other obstacle.
Always ensure that you have ample space behind the seat and recline the seat slowly.
10. If excessive pressure is applied to the massage heads, a safety circuit may be activated and they may stop
moving. When raising the heads from the lowered position, the weight of the body may stop the heads from
moving. If this happens, slightly raise your body and allow the heads to move up.
11. After each massage, slide the power switch on the back of the seat to the “off” position and turn the lock switch
to the lock position.
12. Do not sit on the massage chair when your body or hair is wet.
13. The massage Lounger must not be used in “wet rooms” (sauna, swimming pool) or out-of-doors.

MOVING THE UNIT
Lift up the front of the unit when moving it.
* Raise the backrest to the upright position when moving the unit.
* After making sure that the power switch is in the “off” position, unplug the power cord from the power socket. Do
not move the unit while it is in operation.
* Place a mat on the floor and gently roll the unit over it to avoid damaging the floor.
Note: Do not move the unit while someone is seated on it.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To avoid the risk of injury.
1. Pregnant women, people who are ill, in poor physical shape or undergoing medical treatment, and people
suffering from back, neck, shoulder or hip pain should consult their doctor before using the unit. If you have a
pacemaker, defibrillator, or other personal medical device, consult with the manufacturer of your device before
using the unit. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
2. Sit down slowly after checking the position of the massage heads. Never put any part of your body between
the massage heads as the squeezing action of the massage heads may cause injury. Never put your fingers or
feet in the gap between the backrest and seat, the backrest and the armrest, the seat and cover under the
armrest, or the gap between the legrest and the footrest. Do not place your fingers in the mechanical section of
the legrest located under the seat.
3. Do not use the unit against bare skin. While thin clothing may increase effectiveness, exposing the skin directly
to the massager may irritate the skin.
Do not use the unit while wearing anything hard on your head like a hair accessory, etc.
4. Do not use the unit for massaging the head, abdomen, elbows or knees. Take care when massaging the area
around the neck. Do not use excessively strong massage action on the front of the neck.
5. Always check that the shoulder position is correct. If it is not correct, use the Shoulder Position Adjustment
Button to adjust it properly (In programmed operation). Failure to align the shoulder position correctly can lead
to accidents or injury.
6. Do not stretch the back muscles for more than approximately 15 minutes at a time. To avoid overstretching the
muscles which may result in discomfort, do not use the unit for more than 5 minutes when first using it. You
can gradually increase the duration and intensity of the massage as you become used to it.
Do not massage any one point for more than 5 minutes at a time.
Excessive massaging can overstimulate the muscles and nerves and result in an adverse effect.
To prevent excessive massaging, do not use the massager for more than a total of 15 minutes each session.
After approximately 15 minutes, the massage heads will be retracted and stop moving.
7. While using the unit, if you start feeling sick or if the massage seems painful, stop using it immediately.
While using the massager, if the pressure seems too strong, the movement of the massage heads can be
stopped at any time by pressing the Stop Button.
8. Do not go to sleep while using the unit. Do not use the unit after drinking alcohol.
9. When the seat back is in a reclined position, do not sit on it or sit with your legs resting on the headrest.
Do not sit on the legrest as the unit may fall over.
10. Do not allow children or pets to play on or around the unit, especially during operation.
11. Do not unplug the unit or turn it off during operation. Unplug the unit immediately if there is a power cut.
