HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

This product must be earthed. If it should malfunc-

tion or break down, earthing provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. Use this product with an equipment­earthing conductor and an earthing plug. Plug one
end of the cord into the massage chair. Plug the

power cord into an appropriate outlet that is prop­erly installed and earthed in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.

Use only a power cord type H05VV-F with a conductor
of at least 1mm

2

, with a country recognised plug and

an appliance coupler.

HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER

Make sure the power
switch on the back of the
chair is in the “on” position.

Next, press the power but­ton on the hand control; an
indicator will light. Note: If
there is a thin sheet of
plastic on the face of the
hand control, remove it.

HOW TO TURN OFF THE POWER

To turn off the power, press the power button on the
hand control. The power indicator will darken. Return
the power switch on the back of the chair to the “off”
position.

DANGER:Improper connection of

the equipment-earthing conductor can result
in an increased risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or serviceman if
you are in doubt as to whether the product is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the product—if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.

FEATURES OF THE MASSAGE CHAIR

HOW TO USE THE MASSAGE ZONES

The massage chair also features three massage
zones: upper back, lower back and whole back. The
massage zones are controlled with the Back Zones
button.

upper massage zone. Pressing the button again
will end the massage. Press the button once more
to reactivate the “whole” massage zone.

2. While you are using the
massage zones, you
can modify the intensity
of the massage by
using the Shiatsu but­ton to select a soft or
firm massage.

Note: The massage action will automatically stop
if no buttons on the hand control are pressed for
twenty minutes. This applies to both the manual
mode and the massage zones. To restart the mas-

sage action, simply press the power button on the
hand control and select the desired massage option.

HOW TO USE THE MASSAGE PROGRAMS

the massage chair offers six massage programs.

lower back zone
indicator will

also light. If the program you selected targets the
upper back, the upper back zone indicator will
also light. If the program you selected targets the
whole back, the whole back zone indicator will
also light.

2. Once you have selected a program, sit back, relax
and enjoy the massage. You can change to a dif­ferent program at any time.

The massage programs and their functions are:

LOWER BACK 1. This program offers a ten­minute lower back massage.

UPPER BACK 2. This program offers a ten-minute
upper back massage.

WHOLE BACK 3. This program offers a ten­minute massage of your whole back.

WHOLE BACK 4. This program offers a twenty­minute massage of your whole back.

WHOLE BACK 5. This program offers a twenty­minute firm massage of your whole back.

WHOLE BACK 6. This program offers a twenty­minute hard massage of your whole back.

Note: If no buttons on the hand control are
pressed while a program is running, the massage
chair will shut off once the program is finished.

To restart the massage action, simply press the power
button on the hand control and select the desired
massage option.

Check the massage chair periodically to make sure
that all parts are properly tightened.

If the hand control does not function properly, check
the following things:

• Is the power cord plugged into a 240-volt outlet?

• Is the power switch on the back of the chair in the
“ON” position?

• Is the hand control properly connected to the mas­sage chair? (See assembly step 6 on page 6.)

The massage chair can be cleaned with a low-power
hand-held vacuum or a dry cloth. IMPORTANT: Never

use water or solvents to clean the massage chair.
