Instructions for Use

on the back of the unit to protect the massage mechanism during
shipment, which must be removed before the first use to allow the unit
to function properly. Use the provided allen wrench. Then, properly
dispose of the screw, and place the included black plug into the hole
that was left by the screw.
Warning - Failure to remove screw may
cause permanent damage to the massage cushion.
Plug adaptor into a 120 volt AC outlet and plug the receptacle end
