How to adjust your swivel chair
PSit well back in the chair
The anatomically shaped seat should be fully occupied.
Only then is proper contact with the supporting
backrest assured.
„swing up“ can be optionally fitted with seat tilt and
seat depth adjustment. These allow the seat to be
adjusted individually to suit most body sizes.
PAdjust the height of the seat precisely
The correct seat height means that the elbow joint
adopts an angle of about 90°when the forearms are
resting horizontally on the desktop. The knee joint
will also adopt an angle of about 90°when the feet
are flat on the floor. If your desktop is too high, and
cannot be lowered to a correct position, you need a
footrest with adjustable height and tilt.
PAdjust the backrest
Adjust the backrest so that the curvature of the back-
rest supports the spine in the region of the third and
fourth lumbar vertebrae (where the forward curvature
is greatest). This stabilises the natural S-shape of the
spine in every sitting position.
Similar-Swing mechanism innovation
How it works
The mobile Similar-Swing shell in combination with
the “Similar” mechanism allows perfect synchronism
with an expanded range of movement. The flexible seat
follows the body’s movements to the left and right for
enhanced comfort. The backrest and the armrests are
not coupled with the flexible seat, allowing the user
to feel securely supported at all times.
The dorsokinetic mechanism, offering central suspen-
sion of the backrest at only one point, ensures optimal
support of the back during rotating and lateral move-
ments.
PDynamic sitting
Dynamic sitting means changing your sitting posture
frequently, or in other words shifting as often as
possible between the front and rear sitting posture.
You should therefore adjust the backrest dynamically.
„swing up“ is equipped with a “Similar-Plus” mechanism,
allowing you to adjust the backrest pressure as best
suits you. This ensures that the backrest and seat
automatically give your body support in every sitting/
reclining position.
Healthy sitting is a question of personalisation

Tips for users
Correct use
This office swivel chair is designed
for a user weight of up to 120 kg
and may only be used for the
purpose intended while exercising
due care and attention. Using it
inappropriately (e.g. as a step-
ladder, sitting on the armrests or
placing extreme weight on one
side) could result in accidents.
Castors
Remove the red or blue transport
protection on the castors before
using the product for the first time.
A variety of castors are available,
for the sake of your safety and for
use on different types of flooring in
accordance with safety regulations:
– Hard castors for soft flooring
(standard)
– Soft castors for hard floors are
optional
Changing castors: this might be
necessary, for instance, after
moving office, or after the instal-
lation of a new floor covering –
simply pull out the castors and
push new ones in.
Armrests
Armrests can be fitted later or
exchanged on some models.
Plastic parts
Soapy water is suitable for clea-
ning. Please do not use any
aggressive cleaning materials.
Upholstery/membrane
In the case of light damage or
soiling to the upholstery, please
only use suitable delicate cleansing
agents, or Sedus cleaning foam.
The upholstery and membrane
covering of the backrest should
only be changed by skilled persons.
Leather
Leather is a natural product.
The natural markings of the
animal skin gives the material
its unmistakable texture.
Rub off light soiling with a soft
woollen cloth. Heavier soiling
should only be treated with
cleaners designed for aniline-
dyed leather.
Do not expose semi-aniline
leather to direct sunshine.
Seat height adjustment
We recommend cleaning the
piston rod regularly with a cloth.
Other work on the gas spring,
e.g. replacement, may only be
carried out by trained staff.
