Operating Instructions (Adjustments)

Your Tempur-Pedic TP4000 chair offers multiple adjustments to ensure ergonomic comfort. Familiarize yourself with these controls to optimize your seating position.

1. Seat Height Adjustment

Locate the lever on the right side, beneath the seat. Pull the lever up to raise or lower the seat. Release the lever at your desired height. Ensure your feet are flat on the floor or a footrest, and your knees are at a 90-degree angle.

2. Back Height Adjustment

The backrest can be adjusted vertically. While seated, lift the backrest to ratchet it up to your preferred lumbar support position. To lower, lift the backrest to its highest point, then allow it to drop to its lowest setting, and then re-adjust upwards.

3. Armrest Height and Width Adjustment

The armrests can be adjusted for both height and width. Look for buttons or levers on the armrest supports to unlock and adjust. Position them so your arms are comfortably supported and your shoulders are relaxed.

4. Seat and Back Angle Adjustments (Independent)

This chair features independent levers for adjusting the seat and back angles. Use these to find the most comfortable and supportive recline for your posture. Lock the levers once your desired angle is achieved.

5. Center Tilt with Lock, Forward Tilt, and Tilt Tension

These controls allow you to adjust the chair's recline and resistance. The tilt tension knob (usually a round knob under the seat) controls the ease of recline. The tilt lock lever allows you to lock the chair in an upright or reclined position. The forward tilt feature provides an option to tilt the seat slightly forward, which can be beneficial for certain tasks or postures.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Tempur-Pedic TP4000 chair, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Spot clean the polyester fabric upholstery as needed. Use a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Casters: Periodically check the dual-wheel casters for debris (hair, lint) and clean them to ensure smooth movement.
• Hardware: Occasionally check all screws and bolts to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
• General Care: Avoid exposing the chair to direct sunlight for prolonged periods to prevent fading.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your chair, please review the following common problems and solutions:

• Chair not adjusting height: Ensure the gas lift lever is fully engaged. If the issue persists, the gas lift cylinder may need replacement.
• Chair wobbles: Check that all assembly hardware is securely tightened. Ensure the casters are properly inserted into the base.
• Casters not rolling smoothly: Clean any debris from the caster wheels. If they are damaged, they may need to be replaced.
