 OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To avoid damaging the chair, follow these precautions:
  1. The chair is designed for a maximum user weight of 120 k
g. Exceeding the maximum weight may cause 
permanent damage to the massage mechanism and/or other components of the unit. Any such damage is 
deemed to be user abuse and is not covered under the Limited Warranty.
  2. Do not sit on or drop the controller. Do not pull the controller cord or the power cord. Be careful not to catch the 
cord of the controller between the armrest and the chair back.
  3. Do not treat the chair roughly, turn the chair on its side, turn the chair over or stand on it.
  4. Do not treat the covering roughly.
Keep sharp or pointed objects away from the covering of the chair. Be careful not to drop lit ashes, lit cigarettes 
or matches on the chair.
Exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading or a change in color of the covering.
  5. If the massager functions abnormally, immediately turn off the power and have the massager checked by an 
authorized service center.
  6. Do not repeatedly operate any switch at short intervals. Such action may cause the switch to malfunction.
  7. Some noise may be heard coming from the massager while in use. This is due to the structure of the massager 
and is normal.
  8. Make sure there are no obstacles behind the chair before reclining it. The chair can be reclined to a maximum 
angle of 170˚. If the back hits a wall or pillar, the chair may malfunction. Be sure to have ample space behind 
the chair. Recline the chair slowly in order to avoid contact with an obstacle.
  9. When excessive pressure is applied to the massage heads, they may stop moving for safety. When moving the 
heads up from the lowered position, one’s body weight may stop the heads’ movement. In such a case, slightly 
raise your body and allow the massage heads to move up.
10. After each massage, slide the power switch, which is located on the right side of the chair, to the “off” position 
and turn its lock switch to the “lock” position.
11. Do not sit on the chair with wet body or hair.
12. The unit must not be used in “wet rooms” (sauna, swimming pool) or outdoors.
13. Do not attempt to open or disassemble any part of the unit. Only use an authorized Panasonic servicer to fix 
your unit.
