Information on natural leather

NOUHAUS uses natural cow leather. It is a natural phenomenon that each natural leather differs in texture and color, and marks such as scars and wrinkles are characteristics of genuine leather. Due to the features of the natural cowhide, the density of wrinkles and the texture of the skin may vary, so the surface pattern is not uniform, having slight variations.

Leather is subject to different degrees of dyeing depending on its surface condition.

FAQ

Q1. Can I get a massage on my back only?

After pressing the kneading / tapping / complex massage button, press the Full-body massage button and press it again when the massage balls reach the targeted area. Then the massage balls will be fixed.

Q2. Is it possible to adjust the tension?

You can adjust the tension using the hexagon wrench provided at the time of installation. Insert a hexagon wrench into the hole located in the center of the five-foot support at the bottom of the massage chair, and rotate it. See tension adjuster on page

Q3. How far does the chair lean back?

It reclines to 121 degrees, from its default angle (106 degrees). When putting your feet on the ottoman, it will naturally become inclined due to the weight. (Reclining degree cannot be fixed)

Q4. I can’t connect to Bluetooth Speaker.

After turning the product off and on, delete the NM-SN500 from the device you want to connect to and connect it again. Or, press and hold the [+] button on the side of the remote control for more than 5 seconds, then the Bluetooth will be disconnected with a notification sound.

Q5. Will it create a lot of inter-floor noise?

Unlike other massage chairs, it barley creates any inter-floor noise because the main body is not attached to the floor. In addition, you can further reduce the noise by placing a rug under the massage chair.

Q6. Is the leather replaceable?

Only the head cushion, back seat, and airback seat can be replaced. The cost of replacement varies by part.

Q7. The operating sound seems louder than what I heard when trying it out at the store.

At the store, you may not be able to hear the sound of the massage chair due to the ambient noise. In a relatively quiet residential space, you may hear the machine sound when operating the massage chair, but this is a normal and not a cause for concern.

It is recommended for use by those aged 12 or older, and please use it in consideration of the body size below.
