Get Ready
Unpack the Boxes
The "Unpack the Boxes" section shows line drawings of the components: a chair frame, a headrest frame, a body pad, a head pad, a head pillow, an arm core, two arm caps, screws (labeled as 4 and 6), a 3/16-inch Allen key, and a Phillips-head screwdriver.
Attach the Backrest Frame
- Raise the chair to an upright position. Plug in the chair and use the electric recline lever to adjust it to an upright position. Ensure the power cord lies beneath the mechanics.
- Remove the two screws from the headrest frame using the Phillips-head screwdriver. Retain these screws for step 4.
- Insert the headrest frame into the chair frame. With the headrest frame positioned to tilt forward, slide its ends into the open tube ends of the chair frame.
- Replace the headrest frame screws using the Phillips-head screwdriver to secure the headrest frame to the backrest frame.
- Install the canvas backrest support. Pull the chair canvas upward firmly, wrap the top flap around the backrest frame, align the two hook-and-loop fastener strips, and press them together. Ensure the canvas is stretched tight for proper back support.
Attach the Body Pad
- Slide the body pad onto the lower part of the chair frame, ensuring the frame slides into the fabric pocket on the bottom side of the pad.
- Smooth the body pad into place from the footrest toward the seat. Pull up on the backrest pad until the hook-and-loop fastener strip on its back aligns with the hook-and-loop fastener strip on the chair canvas, then press the strips firmly together.
Attach the Head Pad
- Slide the head pad over the headrest frame, ensuring the frame slides into the fabric pocket at the bottom of the pad. Pull the head pad down as far as possible.
- From the front of the chair, tuck the flap on the top of the body pad up into the head pad and smooth the lower part of the head pad flat. The flap is automatically secured by hook-and-loop fasteners.
- Attach the head pillow straps to the head pad straps using hook-and-loop fasteners. Adjust the head pillow height for maximum comfort.
Attach the Arm Core and Caps
- Attach the right-hand arm core. Remove the four screws taped to the top of the right-hand arm, place the arm core on the mounting plate, and secure it with the four screws and Allen key.
- Attach the arm caps. Remove the three screws taped to the underside of the right-hand arm cap, place it on the armrest, and secure it with the three screws from the underside. Repeat for the left-hand arm cap.
Take a Seat
Adjust the Recline Angle
Before adjusting the recline angle, ensure there is nothing directly behind or beneath the chair. Gently push down on the electric recline lever to recline backward, or pull up on the lever to adjust the angle forward. Release the lever at the desired angle. The chair stops automatically at maximum recline or full upright position. In the full upright position, the legrest automatically folds inward for easy entry and exit. Note: Lean back against the backrest before reclining. Do not apply extra pressure on the footrest while reclining, as this may prevent it from deploying and locking properly.
When adjusting the footrest up and down, you may notice a slight bumping sensation. This is caused by the footrest locking mechanism and is perfectly normal.
Adjust the Headrest
While seated, reach up with both hands and grasp both sides of the headrest frame. Tilt the headrest forward or backward for maximum comfort. The headrest remains in this position until adjusted again.
Getting Out of the Perfect Chair
While seated, pull up gently on the electric recline lever until the backrest automatically stops in a full upright position and the footrest stops in a vertical position (the backrest stops before the footrest). Use the armrests for support when getting up from the chair.
Care and Maintenance
To keep your product working and looking its best, please follow these simple care guidelines.
WARNING:
- Be sure to disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
- When cleaning the remote control or power switch, use a dry cloth only. Never use a damp cloth to clean any electrical component.
CAUTION:
- Be sure to test any cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous part of the product to ensure that the color does not fade prior to using the solution on the entire product surface.
- Do not use benzene, thinner or any other solvents on your product.
Cleaning Code Standard for SofHyde or Cloth: W
To maintain your Human Touch product in optimum condition, dust it frequently and/or vacuum it with a soft brush vacuum extension. If your product becomes dirty, use a water-based upholstery cleaner only. To treat stains, spot clean with an upholstery shampoo or a mild detergent foam.
Caring for Leather Upholstery
Natural leather is a breathing, porous material similar to human skin, and is susceptible to staining due to absorbing dirt, sweat, moisture, oil and grease (e.g., hair products and skin lotions). Do not allow these elements to come into direct contact with the upholstery. To help prevent normal leather cracking and drying, and help prevent staining, apply a high-quality leather cleaner and conditioner at least every three months; this will revitalize and reseal the leather surfaces. Follow the product label instructions carefully; Human Touch is not responsible for third-party products.
Maintenance and Repair:
- The mechanics of this product are specially designed and constructed to be maintenance free. No periodic lubrication or servicing is required.
- Your chair should only be serviced by a Human Touch-authorized service representative.
Use and Storage Environment:
- Do not place the chair in direct or reflected sunlight, as ultraviolet rays will quickly fade the upholstery color and cause SofHyde upholstery to rapidly deteriorate.
- Operate your chair in a room temperature between 41 and 104 degrees Fahrenheit (5 to 40 degrees Celsius) with humidity levels of 10% to 70% (non-condensing) to avoid damage.
- To prevent damage to the upholstery, before sitting in your chair make sure there are no sharp objects in your pockets and no metal buttons or zippers that can come in contact with the chair.
- Do not place the chair where excessive dust and pet hair can migrate into the chair's electrical and mechanical components; this can cause malfunction over time.
- When not in use for a long period of time, we recommend that the chair be covered, the power cord be coiled, and that the unit be placed in an environment free of dust and moisture.
- Store your chair in a room temperature between 5 and 122 degrees Fahrenheit (-15 to 50 degrees Celsius) with humidity levels of 10% to 70% (non-condensing) to avoid damage; product stored in cold temperatures may require 48 hours at room temperature to function properly.
- Do not store near open heat or flame.
Having Trouble?
Should your Perfect Chair exhibit any abnormal recline behavior, please do the following to fully reset the chair; this simple reset sequence will resolve many issues:
