DEVICE OVERVIEW

DEVICE OVERVIEW
The actual product materials and fabrics may vary from the picture shown.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

The 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.

Failure to remove screw may cause permanent damage to the massage cushion. DO NOT REINSTALL SCREW.

To reduce the 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 120-volt household electrical outlet to power unit.
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.

warning NOTE: The hand control comes with a clear, plastic film to protect the buttons before use. When you are ready to use your massage cushion, peel off the plastic film by lifting at one corner and pulling gently. Discard film.

To avoid pinching, do not lean on the back 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.

warning NOTE: This unit is equipped with a 15-minute auto-off feature for your safety.
