Operating Instructions
The FLEXISPOT Foldex chair offers multiple adjustment features to customize your seating experience for optimal comfort and ergonomic support.
1. 3D Adjustable Headrest
Adjust the headrest in multiple dimensions (height, angle, and rotation) to achieve precise neck and head support. Simply grasp the headrest and move it to your desired position.

2. Height-Adjustable Lumbar Support
The lumbar support can be moved up or down to accurately support your lower back. Gently push or pull the lumbar pad to find the perfect fit for your spine's natural curve.

3. Flip-up Armrests
The armrests can be flipped up to allow the chair to be pushed closer to your desk or to save space. Simply lift the armrests upwards until they lock into a vertical position.

4. Tilt Function and Height Adjustment
Use the levers located under the seat to adjust the chair's height and engage/disengage the tilt function. The tilt tension can also be adjusted to control the recline resistance.
- Height Adjustment: Pull the lever upwards while seated to lower the chair, or while standing to raise it.
- Upright Lock: Push the lever inwards to lock the backrest in an upright position. Pull it outwards to allow tilting.
- Tilt Tension: Rotate the knob under the seat to increase or decrease the tension of the recline.

Maintenance
To maintain the longevity and appearance of your FLEXISPOT Foldex chair, follow these simple care instructions:
- Wipe Clean: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the chair's surfaces. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
- Mesh Care: For the breathable mesh back, gently wipe with a damp cloth. Do not scrub vigorously.
- Foam Seat Care: For foam seat versions, spot clean with a mild detergent and water solution if necessary.
- Regular Checks: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they are tight. Retighten if needed.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your FLEXISPOT Foldex chair, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
- Chair Wobbles: Ensure all screws are securely tightened. Check that the chair base is evenly placed on the floor.
- Height Adjustment Not Working: Verify that the gas lift lever is fully engaged and not stuck. Ensure no obstructions are preventing the gas lift from functioning.
- Recline/Tilt Issues: Check the upright lock lever and tilt tension knob. Adjust the tension to your preference. If the chair does not recline, ensure the lock is disengaged.
- Wheels Not Rolling Smoothly: Inspect the casters for any debris (hair, lint) that might be obstructing movement. Clean if necessary.
