Grounding Instructions

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electronic shock.

Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether this product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch (A). A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter used in sketches (B) and (C) may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch (B), if a properly grounded plug is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored, rigid ear tab or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.

Diagram: Grounding methods. Sketch (A) shows a standard grounded outlet with a grounding pin. Sketch (B) shows a temporary adapter connecting a two-prong plug to a two-pole receptacle. Sketch (C) shows the adapter with a tab for a grounding screw.

The use of a temporary adaptor is not permitted in Canada.

WARNING: This product is equipped with a thermal resetting protection device. This is an added safety feature to protect you and this product from overheating. If the product should suddenly stop and will not start, turn the main power switch, located on the back of the product, off and do not operate the product for at least 30 minutes. Failure to turn the product off may result in the product starting unexpectedly when the device cools.

Get Ready

Unpack the Box

Diagram: Components shown are a Chair Base, a Backrest Pad, and a Head Pillow.

1. Attach the backrest pad.

Zip the backrest pad to the backrest.

2. Attach the head pillow.

Zip the head pillow to the backrest pad.

NOTE: When enjoying a massage, flip the head pillow and headrest flap over the backrest to increase neck and shoulder massage intensity.

Take a Seat

Using your Human Touch massage chair is easy. Just take a seat and recline to the desired position. Your Human Touch massage chair helps you feel better, using Zero-Gravity positioning and a wide variety of massage techniques that you control. It's the perfect way to relax and refresh.

1. Power On

Plug the power cord into a grounded power source. Turn the master power switch (on the left-hand side of the chair) to On.

Use One-Touch Control to Go To Zero

With the calf massager facing up, press and hold Go To Zero to place your body in a neutral-posture position, relieving pressure from head to toe for maximum comfort.

Diagram: Buttons for adjusting seating posture: incline, legs, and a directional pad.

Adjust the Foot-and-Calf Massage Intensity

While sitting in the chair, turn the calf massager width knob clockwise to increase massage intensity or counter-clockwise for a less-intense massage.

To Use the Foot-and-Calf Massager as a Legrest

While sitting in the chair, use the controller to deploy the footrest. Pull the footrest rotation release handle (located on the right-hand side of the footrest) toward you, then rotate the footrest toward the chair until it clicks into position with the flat side of the footrest facing up. Do not force the rotation of the footrest past the point at which it clicks to lock. Excess force may damage the mechanism.

NOTE: The foot and calf massager must be locked into position to raise the backrest.

WARNING: Do not inhibit the backrest or footrest from power reclining or inclining. Do not attempt to manually recline or incline the backrest or footrest. Interfering with the power recline will permanently damage the chair.

Do not stand or sit on the foot and calf massager.

For an easier exit, restore the footrest and backrest to their original locations before getting out of the chair.

Make sure the area behind/underneath the footrest is clear of any obstructions before retracting the footrest.

Press and hold the Stop button to stow the footrest and return the chair to the upright position.

Take Control

Now choose a massage technique. Your Human Touch massage chair lets you customize your massage using a wide variety of massage modes. Choose from three stationary massage modes and a rolling massage, or combine them. Use the Range button to tailor your vertical massage range, or the Zone and Position buttons to target your massage to a specific area. Or, let the chair take control - just select one of the four Auto Immersion programs, which alternate massage modes to achieve four unique experiences. No matter how you use it, Human Touch Technology offers maximum massage flexibility and refreshing benefits.

Front Controls

• Auto Immersion Programs: Four unique auto immersion programs automatically massage you for 15 minutes, using a variety of massage modes. The corresponding LED lights indicate which massage mode is currently in use.
• Zone: Targets your massage to a six-inch zone. Use the Position buttons to focus your massage on the desired area.
• Position: Use this button along with any stationary massage mode, to set the massage head to the desired position on the backrest. You can press this button before or after selecting the massage mode.
