8 Motor Back Massager - Buttons Description

Zone buttons activate motors to massage specific areas: upper back, middle back, lower back and seat. Customize your massage by choosing one specific area, any combination of areas, or all four at once. To select a massage area, simply slide the button to the right and the corresponding L.E.D. light will illuminate. To deselect, simply slide the button to the far left and the corresponding L.E.D. light will turn off.

Heat
Soothing heat is activated by pressing this button. To turn off heat, simply press the button again. The glowing L.E.D. light indicates that heat is on.

Power Adaptors
This massager is powered by a custom 120 volt AC home adaptor, and 12 volt DC auto adaptor (cigarette lighter plug-in style). Both are included with your unit.
NOTE: When selecting the heat feature with massaging action, there will be a slight decrease in the strength of the massage output. This adjustment is perfectly normal and should not be interpreted as a defect.
