WARNING
Use a single outlet (do not share
an outlet with other plugs).
Use an unshared 120-V AC (7 A or more)*
outlet with an attached ground terminal.
Using the same outlet together with the
power plug of other devices can result in
abnormal heat generation and possible re.
* 110, 220, 230, 240 V AC (7 A or more)
Firmly insert the power plug into
the outlet.
Be sure to fully insert the power plug into the
outlet until reaching the base of the plug. Failure to
fully insert the plug or similar fault can result in a
short circuit or heat generation that causes a re.
Do not wash the chair by pouring
water on it.
Do not wash the chair by pouring water on it
because this chair is an electrical device.
Washing in such a manner can result in a
malfunction or electric shock.
Do not connect the earth (ground) to
the following objects.
• Water Pipes
Complete grounding is not possible as hard
plastic pipes are widely used.
• Gas Pipes
Connecting to gas pipes can result in an
explosion or re.
• Lightning rods and telephone dedicated
grounding wire.
Do not sit on the backrest of the
chair.
Sitting on the backrest of the chair could cause
it to tip over, resulting in injury or damage.
Securely connect to ground.
Failure to make a ground connection can
result in electric shock if there is a
malfunction or short circuit. Consult an
electrician for grounding procedures.
 Do not stand on the edge of the step.
Do not stand on the edge of the step. Doing so
could cause the chair to tip over or the step could
suddenly move, resulting in injury or damage.
Be careful of power cord or plug
breakage.
Do not use any power cord or plug that is
damaged, or that ts loosely when inserted
into an outlet. Doing so can result in electric
shock or re.
 Be careful to keep hands, ngers and other
body parts of the customer and user from
touching or getting close to moving parts.
There is a danger of pinching and other
physical injury.
 Hold by the power plug when unplugging.
Do not pull the cord to remove the power plug

power cord, resulting in electric shock or re.
Unplug the power plug when the
chair is not in use.
Turn off the power switch and remove the
power plug from the outlet when the chair is
not in use. Unexpected operation can result
in an accident or re from a short circuit due
to insulation aging.
Do not disassemble or repair the
chair.
Disassembly or repair must only be done by
a qualied service staff. Disassembly by
yourself can result in an accident, a
malfunction, electric shock or re. Do not allow a customer to lie
face down on the chair.

Clothing dye adhering
The color of clothing or belts can be transferred to the synthetic leather of this chair by means of contact. If color
adheres to the leather, wipe off the stain as soon as possible by using a soft cloth that has been dabbed with a
neutral detergent diluted with water to approximately 10% in order to prevent the stain from soaking in due to
the plasticizer. Wipe the area with a dry cloth after wiping off the color.
Precautions regarding deformation and color transfer due to contact
• Contact with other plastic parts, painted items, solvents, adhesive tape and similar items can result in changes in
surface luster, cracking, deformation and peeling.
• Contact with newspaper or other printed items can result in color transfer.
• Contact with printed clothing such as t-shirts, jeans and similar items can result in color transfer such as by dye
adhering to the leather.
• Contact with benzene, nail polish remover, alcohol and similar substances can result in discoloration, surface or
plasticizer dissolution, changes in luster, hardening or softening, or peeling.
• Use of bleach, or use of a sheet or other cloth for which bleach has been used can result in changes in luster
and color.
• Placement of an iron, heater or other excessive heat source near the chair can result in deformation and
discoloration.
• Use a curtain or similar item to block the chair from exposure to direct sunlight. Exposure to direct sunlight can
result in surface deformation, shrinking, discoloration, faded colors and similar problems.

CAUTION
• Be careful in pulling up the headrest more than necessary because doing so will make
the headrest to come off the chair.
• Check that there are no impediments in the surrounding area when rotating the seat
with the headrest pulled out.
• Be careful not to get water or any chemical on the headrest bar. Wipe off all moisture
immediately if any water should get on this part. Failure to do so can prevent the head-
rest from being securely xed because of corrosion or degradation of friction force due
to rust.
• Do not apply excessive force to the headrest or strike it from above when it is pulled
out. Doing so can result in damage.
• Be sure to hold the headrest when lowering it for storage, and be careful that your
ngers, hands, and other body parts are not pinched in between the headrest and the
backrest.
• Be sure to always store the headrest when performing a back shampooing. Otherwise,
the shampoo bowl will interfere with the headrest possibly resulting in breakage.
