INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
The cushion comes with a screw located 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.
WARNING:
Failure to remove the screw may cause permanent damage to the massage cushion. DO NOT REINSTALL THE SCREW.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
