  • Button 2 (Right): Typically controls the recliner's retraction (return to upright position). Press and hold to retract the footrest and bring the backrest upright. Release to stop movement.

Note: The exact function of each button (recline/return) may vary slightly depending on your recliner's wiring configuration. Test carefully upon first use.

USB Charging Port:

The integrated USB port allows you to charge compatible mobile devices.

  1. Locate the USB port on the side of the handset.
