Troubleshooting
Problem
Cause and Remedy
The massage heads stop
during operation.
( All the displays and buttons on the
controller will flash and then turn
off.)
If excessive force is applied to the massage heads during operation,
in the interests of safety the massage heads may stop moving.
If all displays 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 the massage heads stop again, position
yourself so that your back is not completely in contact with the backrest. (Caution
should be exercised particularly when used by persons weighing 100
kg
or more.)
It is not possible to recline the unit.
The legrest cannot be raised or lowered.
( All the displays and buttons on the
controller will flash and then turn off.)
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
legrest has stopped, turn off the power of the unit once, turn
“
on
”
the
power again after approximately 10 seconds, and then operate the unit.
The massage heads do not
come up to the shoulder or
neck.
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.
See page 24.
The height of the left and right
massage heads is different.
An alternating tapping method is employed, which means that this phenomenon
will naturally occur. There is nothing wrong with the unit.
See page 52.
Reclining does not take place even though
a massage is started in automatic course.
(The seat does not automatically recline.)
Automatic reclining will not activate when the backrest is reclined
to flat position more than massage position and legrest is in upper
position.
See page 53.
The backrest does not
return to the upright
position.
If the unit is stopped by automatic shut-off or by pressing
, it will not return automatically.
(To return from the reclined position to the original position, press
twice.)
Investigate the Problem and follow appropriate the Cause and Remedy below.
If the problem still exists after following the remedy, contact an authorized service center.

is set to Off.
●
Sense of warmth from the
“
Heat
”
(heater) section differs depending on
your body shape, the massage body part, massage action, clothing, and
room temperature.
Raise the leg/sole massage section during use so that soles of your feet
touch this section to feel the heat from the heater section. You can also
place a blanket over your knees and lower legs to feel even warmer.
●
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.
