Setup and Installation
Before installation, ensure the recliner's power supply is disconnected from the wall outlet.
- Identify the Existing Handset Connection: Locate the existing handset cable connected to the recliner's motor or control box. This is typically a 5-pin DIN connector.
- Disconnect Old Handset (if applicable): Carefully unplug the old handset's 5-pin connector from the recliner's control system.
- Connect New Handset: Align the 5-pin connector of the new Okin hand controller with the corresponding port on your recliner's motor or control box. Gently push until it is securely seated.
- Mount the Handset: The hand controller is designed to be recessed into the armrest or side of the recliner. Ensure the opening in your recliner is compatible with the dimensions of the new switch. Minor modifications to the opening may be required for a proper fit.

- Recline/Extend: Press and hold the left button to extend the footrest and recline the chair. Release the button to stop at the desired position.
- Retract/Upright: Press and hold the right button to retract the footrest and return the chair to an upright position. Release the button to stop at the desired position.
- USB Charging: The central USB port provides 5V 2A power for charging compatible mobile devices. Simply plug your device's USB cable into the port.
Note: The specific movement (e.g., footrest only, backrest only, or synchronized movement) depends on your recliner's internal wiring and motor configuration. Some recliners may link the headrest movement with the main recliner function.

- Cleaning: Wipe clean the surface of the hand controller with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the finish.
