Grounding Instructions

This product must be grounded. Grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be installed in an appropriate, properly installed, and grounded outlet according to local codes.

DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if unsure about grounding.

Do not modify the plug. If it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Thermal Protection

WARNING: This product is equipped with a thermal resetting protection device. If the product stops suddenly, turn off the main power switch for at least 30 minutes before restarting.

Get Ready: Assembly

Your Human Touch massage chair requires simple, tool-free assembly. Attach the backrest pad, seat pad, and head pillow.

Unpack the Box

Contents include: Chair, Seat Pad, Backrest Pad, Head Pillow.

1. Unfold the Chair

Remove all packaging materials. Pull up on the backrest to unfold the chair to an upright position; it locks automatically.

2. Attach the Backrest Pad

Attach the top flap of the backrest pad to the top of the backrest. Smooth the bottom flaps under the backrest and attach side flaps to the sides of the backrest using hook-and-loop fasteners.

3. Power On

Plug the power cord into a grounded 120-volt power source. Turn the master power switch (located on the bottom center of the backrest) to ON.

4. Attach the Seat Pad

Align the seat pad over the chair base with the contoured side towards the backrest. Secure with hook-and-loop fasteners.

5. Attach the Head Pillow

Flip the flap on the back of the headrest up and over the chair top. Attach the head pillow to the flap using hook-and-loop fasteners. Adjust height for comfort.

Take a Seat: Operation

Using your Human Touch massage chair is easy. Adjust the backrest and foot/calf massager for your desired position. The chair offers various massage techniques for relaxation and refreshment.

Adjusting the Chair

• 1. Adjust the Footrest Height: While seated, use the remote's 'Legs Up' and 'Legs Down' settings to raise the footrest to a comfortable height.
• 2. Adjust the Backrest: Use the remote's 'Recline' and 'Incline' settings to adjust the backrest angle for maximum comfort.
• 3. Extend the Footrest (Optional): Pull the extension lever to extend the footrest for longer legs.

For a Calf or Foot Massage

• 1. Deploy the Foot and Calf Massager: Pull the release handle on the footrest. For a calf massage, rotate the footrest away from the chair until it clicks with the massager facing up. Do not force past the click. For a foot massage, rotate just until the massager faces up, without letting it click, allowing it to move freely.
• 2. Insert Your Calves or Feet: Place your calves or feet into the deployed massager.

The remote control is stored in a cradle under the left armrest for easy access.

Note: A slight pause occurs when changing direction as gears shift. This is normal.

For easier exit, retract the footrest and return the backrest to a full upright position before standing. Ensure the area behind/under the footrest is clear before retracting.
