Safety Precautions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using this product. 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.
WARNING: 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 normal 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.

right-hand side of the chair) to raise the footrest to a comfortable

CONTROL
TAKE
Now choose
a massage
mode to suit
your mood.
Your HT™-103 massage chair lets
you customize your massage using
a wide variety of massage modes.
Choose from three stationary
massage modes and two rolling
massages, or combine them. Too
tired to make a decision? Just
select one of the three auto
programs, which alternate between
massage modes and target different
areas of your back. For specific sore
spots, position the massage rollers
to target that spot. Your HT™-103
offers maximum flexibility, to meet
all of your back massage needs.
MASSAGE MODES
Kneading
Kneading — kneads your back in small, circular
motion on both sides of your spine simultaneously,
relieving tension and soreness by lifting and stretching
muscles. Kneading improves circulation and helps
bring vital nutrients to the spinal area.
Percussion
Percussion — alternating rapid-tapping strokes
along the spine stimulate both spinal muscles and
spinal joint areas, emulating the percussive massage
technique used in sports medicine for deep muscle
therapy. Percussion massage flexes spinal joints and
relieves pressure on the spinal column, invigorating
the entire back area.
Compression
Compression — presses on spinal muscles and
spinal joint areas using alternating strokes and a
gentle rocking motion, emulating a technique used in
sports medicine and in spinal therapy by chiropractors.
Compression spreads and puts pressure on deep
muscle tissue, forcing it to relax, while the rocking
motion loosens spinal joints. This technique aids in
muscle and joint repair due to strain from exercise, long
hours bent over a desk, or just day-to-day stress, and
can improve mobility and overall posture.

Kneading
Rolling
Can be used with Percussion,
Kneading and Compression
massage modes.
Rolling Full — rolls gently up and down your back
near your spine, gently alternating side-to-side, to warm
up and loosen your muscles and prepare your back
for deeper massage. Rolling massage relieves muscle
tension, improves circulation and relaxes the back.
Rolling Partial — applies the massage to a 3-inch-high
portion of your back. Use the Spot Adjust buttons to
position the massage rollers to the desired area.
Spot Adjust — Use this button
along with one of the stationary
massage modes, to set the massage
rollers to the desired position on
the backrest. You can press this
button before or after selecting the
massage mode.
Power Recline — Press the
Power Recline buttons to
adjust the backrest angle for
maximum comfort.
Shoulder Height — Press to
select tall, medium, or short,
based on your height, to
position the massage rollers for
maximum comfort.
Power — lights to indicate that
master power switch is on.
Massage Programs massage
the specified area of your back
for 15 minutes, using a variety
of massage techniques. The
corresponding LED lights on the
remote to indicate which massage
mode is currently in use.
Full – massages your
entire back
Upper – massages just your upper
back
Lower – massages just your lower
back
Stop — stops the massage.
Calf + Foot Massage — Press this
button to select from three calf+foot
massage modes.
When you’re not using the remote,
attach it to the convenient magnetic
storage panel on the left side of the
chair, so it’s out of the way.
