- The load on the Massage balls when the switch is pushed is considered basic point, and from then the scanning and the
sensing the body pressure are executed based on the basic point.
- When the adjustment of pressure sensor is finished, the remaining time is shown ‘0’ and the buttons of Ⅱand Ⅲgo off.
