SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNING: To avoid the risk of injury, follow these precautions: 1. Pregnant women, people who are ill, in poor physical shape or undergoing medical treatment, and people suffering from back, neck, shoulder or hip pain should consult their doctor before using the unit. If you have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other personal medical device, consult with the manufacturer of your device before using the unit. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. 2. Sit down slowly after checking the position of the massage heads. Never put any part of your body between the massage heads as the squeezing action of the massage heads may cause injury. Never put your fingers or feet in the gap between the backrest and seat, the backrest and the armrest, the seat and cover under the armrest, or the gap between the legrest and the footrest. Do not place your fingers or any part of your body in the mechanical section of the legrest located under the seat. 3. Do not use the unit against bare skin. While thin clothing may increase effectiveness, exposing the skin directly to the massager may irritate the skin. Do not use the unit while wearing anything hard on your head like a hair accessory, etc. 4. Do not use the unit for massaging the head, abdomen, elbows or knees. 5. Always check that the shoulder position is correct. If it is not correct, use the Neck Roller Position Adjustment Button to adjust it properly (In programmed operation). 6. Do not stretch the back muscles for more than approximately 15 minutes at a time. To avoid overstretching the muscles which may result in discomfort, do not use the unit for more than 5 minutes when first using it. You can gradually increase the duration and intensity of the massage as you become used to it. Do not massage any one point for more than 5 minutes at a time. To prevent excessive massaging, do not use the massager for more than a total of 15 minutes each session. After approximately 15 minutes, the massage heads will be retracted and stop moving. 7. While using the unit, if you start feeling sick or if the massage seems painful, stop using it immediately. While using the massager, if the pressure seems too strong, the movement of the massage heads can be stopped at any time by pressing the Stop Button. 8. Do not go to sleep while using the unit. Do not use the unit after drinking alcohol. 9. When the seat back is in a reclined position, do not sit on it or sit with your legs resting on the headrest. Do not sit on the legrest as the unit may fall over. 10. Do not allow children or pets to play on or around the unit, especially during operation. 11. Do not unplug the unit or turn it off during operation. Unplug the unit immediately if there is a power interruption. 12. For those who are trying the massage for the first time, it is recommended to start on the gentle massage program. The shiatsu massage is stronger and should be enjoyed after one has gotten accustomed to the chair. 4
