You are sitting on a quality product from the company Dauphin. However, please note
that chairs can cause health problems if used incorrectly. With this in mind, use our
sitting tips and the functions built into your chair. By doing so, you will make a substantial,
personalcontribution to avoiding problems when sitting.
1. Sit well back in the seat and use the entire seat area as far as the backrest.
2. Adjust the seat height ➊ so that your thighs and lower legs together form an angle
of at least (though ideally more than) 90°. Your feet are then relaxed and flat on
the floor. Your elbows are resting on the desk top and there fore the weight is taken
off your shoulder muscles.
3. In order to achieve optimum support for your thighs, use the seat-depth
adjustment ➋ where appropriate so that there is enough space for about two
fingers up to the width of a hand between the front edge of the seat and the back
of the knee.
4. Adjust the height of the lumbar support ➌ (where the upholstery of the backrest is
thickest) so that the lumbar support is roughly positioned at the level of your belt.
5. Now – after adjusting the basic functions mentioned above – open the backrest tilt
angle . To do this, turn the hand wheel ➍ in the anticlockwise direction (forwards).
6. Activate the synchronised mechanism ➍ once the basic functions above have
been set. Change your upper-body posture as often as possible so that your
muscles do not become cramped (dynamic seated posture).
7. Adjust the backrest tension ➎ so that the upper body is held upright but is not
pushed forwards.
8. Activate the seat-tilt adjustment ➏ , particularly for forward-seated postures.
Observe an opening angle of at least 90° (right angle) in the bend in your knees
and arms as well as in your hip joint.
9. Now adjust the height of the armrests ➐ so that your elbows rest on the desk and
your shoulder and neck muscles are relaxed (same height as the desk or keyboard).
Correct the seat height, if appropriate. Adjust the width of the armrests ➐ so that
the elbows are not pressed against the body.
10. Make use of all the possibilites that your chair offers. By doing so, you will make a
personal contribution to avoiding problems when sitting.
Please also note the summary on page 3.
Congratulations!
