Instructions for Shiatsu AntiGravity Recliner Use

Your Shiatsu AntiGravity recliner is designed to provide relaxation in a variety of positions utilizing the easylocklevers on each side of the armrests. The ideal position for optimum relaxation is one in which the feet areabove the heart. This position will reduce pressure on the spine and help relieve muscle tension.NOTE: The Shiatsu AntiGravity recliner design has a weight limit of 300 pounds. Persons exceeding thisbody weight should not use this recliner.

Before sitting in the Shiatsu AntiGravity recliner, be sure it is in the complete upright position by pushing thelevers forward toward the footrest.
Sit in the chair and lean back slowly. Sitting all the way back in the seat will make it easier to recline. Toadjust the angle of the chair, hold on to the armrests and lean back or forward until you reach the desiredposition. Lock the position into place by pulling the levers back.
