Sit in the center of the seat with your back all the way against the backrest before you start a program. The body scan uses this position to measure where your shoulders are; if you adjust your position afterward, the rollers will be misaligned.

Please remove your shoes. The foot massager uses rollers and air cushions that are arranged on the sole of the foot. Heels can also damage the padding.

Get into the chair while it is in an upright position, not when the recliner is fully extended. The mechanism under the seat needs room, and a chair that is only partially extended is more likely to tip over when you sit down.

Put your legs on the footrest, your arms in the armrests, and only then start the massage. If you leave your arms outside the armrests, you’ll not only miss out on the hand massage, but you’ll also alter the shoulder position that the chair uses as a reference point.

When getting out, follow the same steps in reverse order: first let the chair fully return to an upright position, then stand up. If you force yourself up from the reclined position, you put unnecessary strain on the mechanism and your own back.

You'll figure it out in two minutes while sitting down. Where you can try it out: our 7 exhibitions.
