Operating Instructions

The La-Z-Boy Delano chair offers several adjustable features to customize your seating experience for optimal comfort and support.

Adjustable Height:

To adjust the seat height, locate the lever on the right side of the chair, beneath the seat. Lift the lever while applying or releasing weight from the seat to move it up or down to your desired position. Release the lever to lock the height.

Recline and Tilt Tension:

The chair features a recline function for personalized comfort. To recline, locate the tab on the left side of the chair, beneath the seat. Pull the tab outwards to unlock the recline mechanism. Lean back to your desired angle. To adjust the tension of the recline, twist the knob located at the front of the seat mechanism. Turn clockwise for more tension (harder to recline) and counter-clockwise for less tension (easier to recline). Push the tab inwards to lock the chair in an upright position.

Maintenance and Care

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your La-Z-Boy Delano office chair, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Spot clean the bonded leather upholstery as needed. Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the material.
  • Regular Inspection: Periodically check all bolts and screws to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability and safety.
  • Caster Care: Keep casters free of debris (hair, dust, etc.) to ensure smooth rolling.
  • Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the leather to fade or crack. Position your chair away from direct sunlight when possible.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your chair, please refer to the following common solutions:

  • Chair Squeaks: Check and tighten all assembly bolts. A small amount of silicone lubricant can be applied to moving parts if squeaking persists.
  • Difficulty Adjusting Height: Ensure the height adjustment lever is fully engaged or disengaged. If the gas lift is unresponsive, it may need replacement.
  • Chair Wobbles: Verify that all bolts are securely tightened. Ensure the chair is on a flat, even surface.
  • Casters Not Rolling Smoothly: Clean any debris from the caster wheels. If damaged, casters may need replacement.

For persistent issues not covered here, please contact customer support.
