Operating Instructions: Adjusting Your Zody Chair

The Haworth Zody chair offers a range of adjustments to customize your seating experience for optimal ergonomic support. Familiarize yourself with these controls to achieve your preferred posture and comfort.

1. Sædehøjdejustering

Locate the lever on the right side, beneath the seat. Lift the lever to raise the seat. While seated, lift the lever and apply pressure to lower the seat. Adjust until your feet are flat on the floor and your knees are at approximately a 90-degree angle.

2. Asymmetrical Lumbar Support

The Zody chair features unique asymmetrical lumbar adjustments. On the back of the chair, you will find two paddles or dials, one on each side of the lower backrest. Rotate or slide these controls independently to increase or decrease the lumbar support on the left and right sides of your lower back. This allows for personalized support tailored to your spine's natural curve.

3. Tilt Mechanism and Tension

• Vippelås: A lever, typically on the left side, allows you to lock the chair's backrest in various positions or enable free recline. Engage the lever to lock, disengage to unlock.
• Vippespænding: A knob, usually located under the front of the seat, controls the resistance of the recline. Turn clockwise to increase tension (requiring more effort to recline) and counter-clockwise to decrease tension (allowing easier recline).
• Multiple Position Back-Stop: This feature allows you to set the recline limit at several points. Use the tilt lock lever to select your desired recline angle and lock it in place.

4. Forward Tilt

Some Zody models include a forward tilt feature, which allows the seat to tilt slightly forward, promoting an active, engaged posture. Consult your specific model's controls for activation, typically a separate lever or button near the main tilt controls.

5. Armrest Adjustments

The armrests are height-adjustable. Locate the button or lever on the underside of each armrest. Press and hold to move the armrest up or down to your desired height. Release to lock. Position armrests so your arms are comfortably supported and your shoulders are relaxed.
