OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To avoid damaging to the chair, follow these precautions:
1. The chair is designed for a maximum user weight of 264lbs (120k
g)
. Exceeding the maximum weight may
cause permanent damage to the massage mechanism and/or other components of the chair. Any such
damage is deemed to be user abuse and 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 chair back.
3. Do not treat the chair roughly, such as turning the chair on its side, turning the chair over or standing on it.
4. Do not treat the covering roughly.
• Keep sharp or pointed objects away from the covering of the chair. Be careful not to drop lit ashes, lit cigarette
or matches on the chair.
• Exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading or a change in color of the covering.
5. If the massager functions abnormally, immediately turn off the power and have the massager checked by an
authorized service center.
6. Do not attempt to repair the massager yourself.
7. Do not repeatedly operate any switch at short intervals. Such action may cause the switch to malfunction.
8. Some noise may be heard coming from the massager while in use. This is due to the structure of the
massager and is normal.
9. Make sure there are no obstacles behind the chair before reclining it. The chair can be reclined to a maximum
angle of 170°. If the back hits a wall or pillar, the chair may malfunction. Be sure to have ample space behind
the chair. Recline the chair slowly in order to avoid contact with an obstacle.
10. When excessive pressure is applied to the massage heads, they may stop moving for safety. When moving the
heads up from the lowered position, one’s body weight may stop the heads’ movement. In such case, slightly
raise the body and allow the massage heads to move up.
11. After each massage, slide the power switch, which is located on the back of the chair, to the “off” position and
turn its lock switch to the “lock” position.
12. Do not sit on massage chair with wet body or hair.
13. The massage Lounger must not be used in “wet rooms” (sauna, swimming pool) or out of doors.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To avoid the risk of injury, follow these precautions:
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 or any part of your body 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.
5. Always check that the shoulder position is correct. If it is not correct, use the Neck Roller Position Adjustment
Button to adjust it properly (In programmed operation).
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.
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
interruption.
12. For those who are trying the massage for the first time, it is recommended to start on the gentle massage
program. The shiatsu massage is stronger and should be enjoyed after one has gotten accustomed to the
chair.

CARING FOR THE MASSAGER
• Always unplug the chair before cleaning.
• If the covering becomes soiled, dampen with liquid soap and brush the surface. Wipe with a cloth dampened with
water. Allow to dry naturally. If the plastic portions become soiled use lukewarm water, with liquid soap on a soft
cloth, to clean the surface.
• Do not use thinner, benzene or other solvent-type cleaners. Chemicals can discolor or damage the materials.
