must be removed before the first use to allow the unit to function properly.

still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
Untie cord strap, extend cord and insert plug into 120-volt household

luxurious massage as you read, rest or even work. See pages 8-9 for
instructions on the use of the hand control.

system which allows you to fasten it to almost any chair. Just slip the straps
over the seat or chair and adjust fastening straps to secure. Your massager
won’t slip or slide away.
