Instructions for Use
The Back and Shoulder Shiatsu Massaging Cushion comes with
a screw located on the back of the unit to protect the massage
mechanism during shipment, which must be removed before the
first use to allow the unit to function properly. Use the provided allen
wrench. Then properly dispose of the screw.
Warning – Failure to
remove screw may cause permanent damage to the massage
cushion.
To reduce risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install
the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
Untie cord strap, extend cord and insert plug into a 120-volt
household electrical outlet to power unit.
Strapping System
The Back and Shoulder Shiatsu Massaging Cushion incorporates
a unique strapping system which allows you to fasten it to almost
any chair. Just slip the straps over the seat or chair and adjust the
fastening straps to secure. Your massager won’t slip or slide away.
Attach the cushion to most chairs for a luxurious massage as you
read, rest, or even work. See pages 6-7 for instructions on the use of
the hand control.
