Troubleshooting

Massager does not turn on.

Check the power connection and ensure the adapter is securely plugged into both the massager and the electrical outlet. Try a different outlet.

Massage intensity is too weak.

Ensure the intensity setting is adjusted to your preference. Also, make sure that the massager is correctly positioned against your back.

Heat function is not working.

Check if the heat function is activated on the control panel. Allow a few minutes for the heat to become noticeable.

Straps are not long enough.

Make sure the straps are fully extended and try adjusting the position of the massager on the chair. The straps are elasticated so there should be some flex.

Massager shuts off prematurely.
