OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: To avoid damaging the unit.

1. The seat is designed for a maximum user weight of 120k

g

(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.
