Adjust the resistance of the tilt function by turning the round knob located under the front-center of the seat. Turn clockwise to increase tension (firmer tilt) and counter-clockwise to decrease tension (lighter tilt).

The armrests can be flipped up by 90° to save space. Simply lift the armrests upwards until they lock into the vertical position. To return them to the horizontal position, pull them down.
