CARE AND MAINTENANCE
•Storage:
oKeep the massage chair dry and clean. Use a dustsheet to protect the
massage chair if it will not be used for a long period.
oDo not expose the chair to strong sunlight or high temperatures, as this
could cause the leather to fade.
oWhen not in use, switch the massage unit off and disconnect from the
mains.
oDo not put any heavy articles on to the armrest or legrest as this could
damage the armchair and/or cause it to become unstable.
•Cleaning
