4.1 Height Adjustment
To adjust the chair's height, pull the lever located under the right side of the seat upwards. While holding the lever, either stand up to raise the chair or sit down to lower it. Release the lever to lock the height.
4.2 Reclining Backrest
The backrest can recline from 90° to 160°. To recline, pull the lever on the right side of the chair (near the armrest) upwards. Lean back to your desired angle and release the lever to lock the position. To return to an upright position, pull the lever and lean forward.

5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance will prolong the life and appearance of your GTRACING Gaming Chair.
- Cleaning: Wipe the PVC leather with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution and then wipe with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Inspection: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
- Moving: When moving the chair, lift it rather than dragging it to prevent damage to the casters or base.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the material to fade or crack.
