  • If synthetic leather is particularly dirty, wipe it in the following way.
  1. Immerse a soft cloth in water or hot water containing 3% to 5% neutral detergent, then wring it out thoroughly.
  2. Use the above soft cloth to wipe the leather surface.
  3. Wipe off the cleaning solution with a cloth soaked in clean water and thoroughly wrung out.

  5. Let it air dry naturally.
  • When it is difficult to remove stains, please immerse commercially available melamine foam in neutral detergent, and then wipe the machine with it.
  • Do not use a hair dryer to dry the surface.
  • Be careful when wiping the machine with denim and colored fabrics, as the color of the fabric will stain the surface of the synthetic leather.
  • Do not keep these parts in contact with plastic for a long time, as this will cause discoloration.
  • Synthetic leather may be discolored, so when using hair dye, please cover the touched part with a towel.

Troubleshooting

When the calf mechanism or the backrest reaches a certain position, press the corresponding adjustment button, and it will no longer change, and a continuous “beep, beep” sound will be emitted.

Due to product structure design and ergonomic requirements, this product has a limited protection design for the limit state of attitude adjustment. At the same time, a reminder sound will sound when the limit is reached.

The function does not work, or some functions do not work after the machine is turned on.

After the machine is turned on by pressing the switch key, it is necessary to manually select an automatic massage program or another working state. If it is not operated, the machine will automatically shut down after 20 minutes. If the manual operation mode is selected, the functions that are not selected may be disabled, and the working mode needs to be manually set in the manual mode.

The machine makes a leather rubbing sound when adjusting its posture.

This product adopts high-grade anti-corrosion leather that meets environmental protection requirements. Due to the inherent characteristics of leather materials, there will be a normal, slight noise when rubbing at the relative movement, which is a normal phenomenon. Note: If you hear a fabric or leather-tearing sound when the machine is running, please stop using it immediately and seek professional maintenance.

The massage wheel did not reach the shoulders or neck.

If the head does not touch the head cushion or the back does not touch the backrest, the shoulder position may be lower than the actual position during the body shape detection process. Sit in the deepest position of the seat, rest your head on the headrest, and start over from the beginning.

The unit is damaged. The power cord or power plug is abnormally hot.

To prevent accidents, be sure to contact an authorized service center.

Please feel free to contact the designated service personnel for any questions or doubts about this product.
