•Do not use your seating system in fresh or salt water (such as at the edge of a stream, lake, or ocean).
•Make sure all electrical connections are secure.
•Dry the seating system as soon as you can if it gets wet, or if you use water to clean it.
2. When not in use, keep your seating system in a clean, dry place. Extra caution should be used when employing the disc switch or the
proximity head array as control devices. These two devices are susceptible to malfunction when wet.
