Environmental care

The battery must not be disposed of with your normal domestic refuse at the end of its service life, instead it must be
handed in at a collection point indicated by the local authority. In this way you will be making a contribution towards a
cleaner living environment.
Important: Even in the event of non-use or insufficient use, the battery must be fully recharged
at least once every 3 months.
4. Upholstery
4.1 Leather
a. If you have chosen a leather model, here are a few tips to help you enjoy your recliner for as long as
possible. Leather is a natural product, and minor irregularities such as marks from insect bites, folding and
small variations in colour are seen as signs of quality.
b. Leather can fade as a result of extended exposure to strong light.
c. Leather can lose its colour due to exposure to extreme temperatures, moisture, solvents or acids (including
acids in the skin and in medicines we use).
d. Sweat and scalp oils (natural human secretions) may be absorbed by the pores in leather (and other fabrics)
and become integrated with the leather. This process will manifest itself most obviously in contact areas
such as the headrest and armrests. Amino acids in sweat and oil secretions can sometimes cause stains or
discoloration of the leather. These vary from one person to the next, and may not occur at all.
e. You can maintain your leather chair in top condition by dusting it off regularly and cleaning it weekly with
plain water and a cloth with no soap residues. The chair should be cleaned just once a year with a special
cleaner, followed by the application of a conditioner. Your retailer can provide further advice about this.
f. When the chair is used it will show signs of the sitting position. Leather stretches under load, partly due to
the elasticity of the foam below. The resulting "puddling effect" is a perfectly normal phenomenon. You can
reduce puddling by smoothing the seat with your hands each day. (illus.5). Signs of use will also be visible
on the chair back. Leather is a fantastic material which grows in beauty as it is used!

4.2 Fabric
a. The chair should be vacuumed weekly using the upholstery brush attachment. Small particles of grit have
an abrasive effect, accelerating wear.
b. Almost any fabric will fade to some extent under the influence of sunlight. Cotton fabrics are more sensitive
to this than wool. Lighter colours generally fade less than darker shades. If possible it is best to avoid
exposing furniture to direct sunlight.
c. Different fabrics will behave differently on the same model of chair, mostly due to variations in elasticity.
The more elastic the fabric the more visible the folding will be, particularly around the seams.
4.3 Foam
Your chair will adjust to your body shape. On a hard surface, your body must adjust to the chair. But comfort
chairs are the opposite. Foam adjusts to circumstances slowly, depending on aspects such as duration of
daily use, temperature and body weight.
The adjustment period depends on usage and can take up to six months. After this usage period, optimal
comfort levels are achieved.
Polyurethane Foam
Polyurethane foam is the primary material that determines comfort. This product is often called "cold foam".
It is non-toxic, produced without CFKs, and is recyclable. A characteristic of cold foam is that it is fairly rigid
at first, but becomes more flexible with use. Stiffness reduces by about 15%, after which the material
stabilizes.
