Problem

Cause and Remedy

Even though I press the reclining button
nothing appears to happen.

When retracting the backrest, in the interests of
safety, the massage heads move to the retracted
position before the backrest starts to retract.
Please hold down the button until the backrest is fully
reclined.

H

The controller becomes warm.

If the unit is used continuously for an extended
period of time it will naturally become warm.
If the controller becomes too hot, immediately stop
using the unit and return it for inspection or repair to
the place that you bought it.

The length of the programs selected in
programmed operation varies.

• When using the massage lounger in programmed

operation, when the program is finished movement
automatically stops. (Although programmed
operation lasts for approximately 15 minutes
(12–17 minutes), this will vary according to the
shoulder position and program selected, whether or
not tapping is on or off, and the weight of the
person using the unit.)

H

It is not possible to recline the unit.
The legrest cannot be raised or lowered.

If the unit encounters an obstacle or if excessive
force is exerted on it during operation, in the
interests of safety the unit will come to a stop.
If all markings and buttons on the controller start to
flash, which is extremely unusual, turn off the power
switch, wait for approximately 10 seconds and then
turn the power switch on again.

Motor Noises

(The noise is louder at the top of the unit.)

• The motor sounds louder when adjusting massage

intensity and width.

• There is a rubbing sound produced by the massage

heads rubbing on the seat fabric.

TROUBLESHOOTING

These sounds are perfectly normal and will not have
any effect on the operation of the unit.

H

The massage heads stop during operation.

When the massage heads are raised or lowered, if
they come into contact with a wall or other obstruction,
in the interests of safety the massage heads may
stop moving. In such a situation, move the chair or
remove the obstruction and start the massage again.
If all markings and buttons on the controller start to
flash, which is extremely unusual, turn off the power
switch, wait for approximately 10 seconds and then
turn the power switch on again.

If excessive force is applied to the massage heads
during operation, in the interests of safety the
massage heads may stop moving. If this occurs,
raise your body slightly before restarting it.
If all markings and buttons on the controller start to
flash, which is extremely unusual, turn off the power
switch, wait for approximately 10 seconds and then
turn the power switch on again.

Nothing can be felt when using Tap A, Tap B
or Vibration.

If the massage heads are not touching your body
then you will, of course, feel nothing. Therefore,
please make sure that your body comes into close
contact with the massage heads.

The massage heads do not come up to the
shoulder or neck.

The position of the shoulders is incorrect.
