Troubleshooting Tips

• Squeaking Noises: Apply a lubricant like WD-40 to the moving parts if the chair begins to squeak.
• Chair Not Reclining: Ensure the tilt-tension knob is adjusted correctly. If it's too tight, the chair may not recline easily.
• Loose Armrests: Check and retighten the screws connecting the armrests to the seat and backrest.
• Material Peeling: Avoid excessive exposure to sunlight and heat which can cause the bonded leather to deteriorate faster.
• Unstable Chair: Ensure all screws are tightened properly and that the gas lift piston is fully inserted into the base and seat.
