5. Operating Instructions

Your COMHOMA office chair is designed with several adjustable features to enhance comfort and support. Familiarize yourself with these functions for optimal use.

• Height Adjustment: To raise the chair, lift the lever on the right side of the seat while taking your weight off the seat. To lower the chair, lift the lever while seated. Release the lever at the desired height.
• Backrest Recline: Pull the recline lever on the left side of the seat outwards to unlock the backrest. Lean back to recline to your desired angle (between 90° and 150°). Push the lever inwards to lock the backrest in place.
• Footrest Extension: To extend the footrest, pull the handle located under the front of the seat. Pull it out completely and then flip up the padded section. To retract, push the padded section down and slide the footrest back under the seat.
• Armrest Adjustment: The armrests are height-adjustable. Locate the buttons or levers on the side of the armrests. Press or lift to adjust the height, then release to lock.
• Lumbar Support Pillow: The included lumbar pillow can be adjusted vertically along the backrest using its elastic straps to provide targeted support for your lower back.

6. Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your office chair.

• Cleaning: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. For faux leather surfaces, use a mild soap solution if necessary, then wipe dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Inspection: Periodically check all screws and bolts for tightness. Re-tighten any loose fasteners to maintain stability and safety.
• Caster Care: Keep casters free of hair and debris to ensure smooth movement.
• Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the faux leather to fade or crack.

7. Troubleshooting

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

• Chair Sinks or Does Not Stay Up: This usually indicates an issue with the gas lift cylinder. Ensure the height adjustment lever is fully engaged. If the problem persists, the gas lift may need replacement.
• Chair is Wobbly: Check all assembly screws, especially those connecting the base, mechanism, and armrests. Tighten any loose screws. Ensure the chair is on a flat surface.
• Casters Not Rolling Smoothly: Check for debris (hair, lint) wrapped around the caster wheels. Clean them thoroughly. Ensure casters are fully inserted into the base.
• Backrest Does Not Recline or Lock: Verify that the recline lever is functioning correctly and not obstructed. Check the connection of the backrest to the seat mechanism.

If these solutions do not resolve the issue, please contact COMHOMA customer support for further assistance.
