5. Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your recliner.

Cleaning the Fabric

• Regular Cleaning: Vacuum the fabric regularly using a soft brush attachment to remove dust and loose debris.
• Spot Cleaning: For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub. For stubborn stains, use a mild, water-free solvent or dry-cleaning product. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the fabric.

Electrical and Mechanical Care

• Power Cord: Periodically inspect the power cord for any signs of wear or damage. If damaged, discontinue use and contact customer support.
• Moving Parts: The mechanical components are designed to be maintenance-free. Do not attempt to lubricate or disassemble them.
• General Inspection: Periodically check all connections and fasteners to ensure they are secure.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your recliner, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Recliner Not Operating:
  • Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into both the recliner and the wall outlet.
  • Check if the wall outlet is functional by plugging in another appliance.
  • Verify the remote control cable is firmly connected to the recliner.
• Recliner Stops Mid-Movement:
  • Release the remote button and press it again.
  • Check for any obstructions under or behind the recliner.
• Unusual Noises:
  • Minor noises during initial use are normal.
