Operating Instructions

1. Adjusting Recline Positions:

   To adjust the recline, slightly lift the armrests. This disengages the backrest from its current position. Lean the backrest forward or backward to your desired position. Once the desired angle is achieved, lower the armrests to lock the backrest into one of the five available positions. Ensure the backrest is securely locked before leaning back.

3. Folding for Transport:

   To fold the chair, ensure the backrest is in its most upright position. Lift the seat slightly and push the front and back legs together until the chair collapses into a compact form. Secure any straps if present to keep it folded.
4. Using Backpack Straps:

   Once folded, the chair features padded shoulder straps. Adjust these straps to comfortably carry the chair on your back, freeing your hands for other items.
