Instructions for Use 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this unit is equipped with a  polarized plug (one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.

2. If greater compression massage is desired, move to Medium or High setting.

NOTE: Air Compression Massage cannot be activated alone. Maintenance
