Instructions for Use

To avoid pinching do not lean on the massage mechanism in the cushion when adjusting your body position.
Do not jam or force any part of your body in the moving massage mechanism.

Connect the adaptor to the unit by plugging the input jack into the output jack, making sure to match the top side of each jack (see Fig. 1). Then plug the adaptor into a 120 volt AC outlet. Attach the cushion to most chairs for a luxurious massage as you read, rest or even work. See instructions on the use of the hand control.

Strapping System

The Full Back 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 fastening straps to secure. Your massager won't slip or slide away.
