Q&A
Usage situation
Can I use the unit if I have an
Q
illness that requires regular
medical attention?
Consult your doctor before using this
A
unit.
Massage is a form of stimulation by tactile
pressure in which pressure is applied to
the muscles to relax them and improve
circulation. This may exacerbate some
illnesses. Be sure to consult a doctor if you
have an illness.
(See pages EN5-6.)
Usage method
Is it possible to massage only the
Q
upper body or legs?
Yes.
A
Massaging only the upper body
Store the leg rest and raise the comfort
cushion to expose the backrest and pillow.
Massaging only the legs
Use the leg & sole massage section with the
comfort cushion on the backrest.
(For details on opening the leg & sole
massage section, see page EN20.)

Body scanning
How does body scanning work?
Q
The shoulder position is detected by
A
the following mechanism.
① The massage heads rise up the back to
the base of the neck, making a series of
short beeps.
② The massage heads protrude.
(If the shoulder position is wrong, the
massage heads move further up and
repeat this step until they find the
shoulders.)
③ The massage heads slowly lower to the
shoulder position.
④ A tapping action is performed in the
shoulder position for around 12 seconds.
◦ Press
and start the massage, even during this
tapping action.

body.
Body scanning can be performed correctly for

Recline the backrest. The extra body weight

Turn off the power switch, wait 10 seconds and then switch it back
on for operation.
It is not possible to recline the unit.
The leg rest cannot be raised or
lowered.
( All the displays and buttons on the
controller will flash and then turn off.)
The massage heads do not
come up to the shoulder or
neck.
The height of the left and right
massage heads is different.
Heat massage heads do
not get warm.
The Foot Heat does not
get warm.
If the unit encounters an obstacle or if excessive force is exerted on it
during operation, in the interests of safety the unit will come to a stop.
When all displays and buttons are flashing and the backrest or the leg
rest has stopped, turn off the power of the unit once, turn on the
power again after approximately 10 seconds, and then operate the unit.
If your head does not contact the pillow or your back does not contact the backrest,
the shoulder position may be detected as lower than the actual position during the
body scanning. Sit on the seat in the deepest position and put your head on the
pillow, and then repeat the operations again from the start.
An alternating tapping method is employed, which means that this phenomenon
will naturally occur. There is nothing wrong with the unit.

Sense of warmth from the Heat (heater) section differs depending on
your body shape, the massage body part, massage action, clothing, and

place a blanket over your
knees and lower legs to feel even warmer.

even after being turned off.
Reclining does not take place even though
a massage is started in automatic course.
(The seat does not automatically recline.)
The backrest does not
return to the upright
position.

Because of the structure of the heater, the Heat massage heads
will feel warm for a while after heating due to the residual heat.
●
Continuing to massage the same area even after turning off the Heat
massage heads and the Foot Heat switch may increase the temperature felt.
Automatic reclining will not activate when the backrest is reclined
to flat position more than massage position and leg rest is in upper
