SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION: To avoid the risk of injury:
1. Persons with any of the conditions listed below or who are undergoing medical treatment or suffer from medical
conditions should consult with their physicians before using the unit:
a) Pregnant women, people who are ill, in poor physical shape.
b) People suffering from back, neck, shoulder, or hip pain.
c) People who have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other personal medical devices prone to electronic
interference.
d) People suffering from heart disease.
e) People who are prohibited from receiving massage by a physician due to thrombosis or aneurism, acute
varicose veins, or other circulatory disorders.
f) People with irregular curvatures of the spine.
2. This unit should not be used by children. Remove the key when not in use and store out of reach of children.
3. 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
mechanism below the legrest, or between the legrest and footrest.
4. 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. Do not use the unit for
massaging the head, abdomen, front neck, elbows or knees.
Do not use excessively strong massage action on the back of the neck.
5. When using the body scanning function, always ensure that the shoulder position is correct. If the shoulder
position is not correct, use the POSITION button to adjust it properly. Or stop the massage function and re-try
the body scanning function. You can adjust the shoulder position in this way in the auto program and manual
operation. Failure to align the shoulder position correctly can lead to 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 strength 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.
The back cushion can be removed if you want to experience a stronger back massage. Exercise extreme care
when you use this mode in order to avoid back pain or injury. Use only for short periods of time (no more than
15 minutes). Reinstall the back cushion if you want to restore to normal massage intensity.
7. While using the massager, 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 Quick 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 outage.
12. Be sure to start on the gentle massage program if using the massager for the first time. The shiatsu massage is
stronger and should be enjoyed after one has gotten accustomed to the chair.
13. Do not allow children to play on this mechanized furniture or operate the mechanism. Legrest folds down on
closing so that a child could possibly be injured. Always leave in an upright and closed position. Keep hands
and feet clear of mechanism. Only the occupant should operate it.
14. Remove hard objects, such as false fingernails, wristwatches or rings, when massaging hands or arms.
Empty pockets of hard objects when massaging the area of the seat or thighs.
