Operating Instructions
Your Tempur-Pedic TP9000 chair features several adjustable components to customize your seating experience for optimal comfort and support.
- Seat Height Adjustment:
Locate the lever on the right side, beneath the seat. To raise the seat, lift the lever while taking your weight off the seat. To lower the seat, lift the lever while remaining seated. Release the lever at the desired height. - Armrest Height and Width Adjustment:
The armrests can be adjusted for height and width. Look for buttons or levers on the armrest supports. Press the button or lift the lever to move the armrest up or down, or to slide it inward or outward. Release to lock in position. - Synchro Tilt Mechanism with Tilt Lock:
The chair features a Synchro tilt mechanism, allowing the backrest and seat to recline in a synchronized motion. A lever, typically on the left side, controls the tilt. Pull the lever out to allow the chair to recline, and push it in to lock the chair in an upright position. The tilt tension knob, usually located at the front center beneath the seat, can be rotated to adjust the resistance of the recline. Turn clockwise for more resistance, counter-clockwise for less.
Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Tempur-Pedic TP9000 chair.
- Cleaning: The chair upholstery should be spot cleaned only. Use a mild detergent and a damp cloth to gently clean soiled areas. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Regular Inspection: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they are tight. Retighten if necessary.
- Caster Care: Keep casters free of hair and debris to ensure smooth movement.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause fading of the fabric.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your chair, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Chair does not adjust height | Gas lift lever not engaged or gas lift cylinder faulty. | Ensure the lever is fully pulled. If the issue persists, the gas lift may need replacement. |
| Chair is wobbly or unstable | Loose screws or uneven floor. | Check and tighten all assembly screws. Ensure the chair is on a flat surface. |
| Squeaking noises | Loose connections or friction between parts. | Tighten all screws. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to moving parts if necessary. |
| Seat cushion feels flat | Normal compression over time. | While TEMPUR material is designed for durability, all foams compress with prolonged use. Consider a seat cushion topper if additional padding is desired. |
