Instructions for Use

The 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 shiatsu feature to function. Use the provided allen wrench.

Failure to remove screw may cause permanent damage to the massage cushion.

Strapping System
The 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 fastening straps to secure. Your massager won't slip or slide away.
