7. Operation
Gently press your back against the massage device to start with. Then make sure that you are in a comfort-
able position before gradually shifting your weight onto the massage device.The massage must be pleasant
and relaxing at all times. Stop the massage or change your position or the contact pressure if you find it is
painful or unpleasant.
• Do not force any part of your body, in particular your fingers, between the rotating massage heads and
their mountings in the device.
• Sit comfortably and upright on the seat cover. Ensure you sit centered and such that the massage heads
can move to the left and right of your spinal column.
• Switch on the massage device with the ON/OFF button. Select the region you wish to massage with the
MASSAGE button.
1. Entire back
2. Lower back
3. Upper back
4. Stop
The LED lamp indicates the massage region set.
• The Shiatsu massage unit with rotating massage heads slowly moves upwards from the starting position
in the lowest region of the back and moves up and down in the massage region set. Application only at a
single point is not possible, as the rotational movement and the displacement up and down are coupled.
• The automatic switch-off function is activated with selection of the massage region and is preset to 15
minutes. You can set the automatic switch-off function to 5, 10 or 15 minutes by pressing the TIMER but-
ton. Please note that changing the timer setting makes the timer start to count again from the beginning.
To avoid overheating the device, select the maximum massage duration at the beginning of the massage
and do not change it again during the massage.
• Do not use the massage device for longer than 15 minutes. The massage can be finished at any time by
pressing the ON/OFF button. Please note that on switching off, the Shiatsu massage unit firstly returns to
the starting position at the lowest region of the back. This is indicated by the ON/OFF LED blinking. Never
interrupt the return to the starting position. Once this position is attained, the device switches off.
• If the device is stopped using the MASSAGE button, it also returns to the starting position after 15 minutes
and then switches off.
• DO NOT disconnect the device from the mains supply during operation. Always switch it off only once it
has reached the starting position at the bottom.
• Disconnect the power supply unit plug from the mains.
• Do not use the massage device for longer than 15 minutes and then allow it to cool. Using the device for
longer can over-stimulate the muscles and cause tension instead of relaxation.
• Disconnect the power supply unit plug from the mains after using the device.
