3. Setup and Assembly

The Home Centre Helios Toledo 1 Seater Fabric Recliner requires professional carpenter assembly. This service is provided by the seller upon delivery. No user assembly is required.

Upon delivery, inspect the packaging and product for any signs of damage. Report any issues immediately to the delivery personnel or seller.

Ensure adequate space is available for the recliner, considering its dimensions when fully reclined. Allow sufficient clearance behind and in front of the chair for the reclining mechanism to operate freely.

4. Operating Instructions

Reclining Mechanism

Your Helios Toledo recliner features a manual reclining mechanism for comfortable positioning. Follow these steps to operate the recliner:

1. To recline the chair, locate the lever on the side of the recliner (typically on the right-hand side when seated).
2. Pull the lever firmly towards you. This action will release the footrest and allow the backrest to recline.
3. Lean back gently to achieve your desired reclining angle. The chair will lock into position once you stop leaning.
4. To return to the upright position, push the footrest down with your legs while simultaneously leaning forward. The backrest will return to its original position, and the footrest will lock into place.

5. Maintenance and Care

Fabric Care

The recliner's fabric upholstery is designed for durability. To maintain its appearance and longevity:

• Regular Cleaning: Dust the fabric regularly with a soft brush or vacuum with an upholstery attachment to remove loose particles.
• Spot Cleaning: For spills, immediately blot the area with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub, as this can spread the stain. For stubborn stains, use a mild fabric cleaner and test it on an inconspicuous area first. Follow the cleaner's instructions.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use strong detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the fabric.
• Sunlight Exposure: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent fading.

• Periodically check all bolts and screws to ensure they are tight. Tighten if necessary.
• Keep the recliner away from excessive moisture or extreme temperature changes.

6. Troubleshooting

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

Recliner Not Operating Smoothly
