6. Start-up Operation

Please read through these operating instructions in proper order. Attaching the massage seat pad The massage seat pad can be used on an office chair or any other seat or chair with a vertical backrest of sufficient height and a sufficient seat cushion depth. The convenient hook-and-loop fasteners will ensure that the mas- sage seat pad does not slide during use. Connecting the power supply Connect the power plug of the power supply unit to the power outlet and the low-voltage plug to the low-voltage socket on the massage seat pad. Note For safety reasons the massage seat pad may be operated only with the enclosed power supply unit, not any other device.19

Test the massage seat pad prior to use by carefully sitting down on it. The massage heads will be in your lumbar area. Carefully lean onto the back rest to find out how much pressure you would like to use. It is important that you sit in the middle so that the massage heads do not massage the spine. Due to the removable seat pad, the massage seat pad can easily be positioned on all commonly available chairs. On/off switch Use the On/Off switch to switch the massage seat pad on. Selecting the massage area The massage seat pad provides a pleasant and relaxing shiatsu massage with a variety of options. "Shiatsu” is a Japanese term meaning “finger pressure”: shi = finger, and atsu = pressure. Use the operating keys to select the desired massage area. You can choose between a massage of the full back, the upper or lower back. After selecting the massage area, you will be able to add pleasant warmth by using the heat function key. Note: The heat function can be used only in combination with the selected massage area. The massage strength can be regulated with the removable back- rest. The recommended duration of a back massage is 15 minutes. Therefore, the massage seat pad will automatically switch off after that time. Switching off The massage seat pad will automatically switch off after pushing the On/Off key or after 15 minutes. The massage heads will return to the starting position. Disconnect the power plug from the power network.20
