Important information
•
Please ensure that the canopy is erected on a stable, level and sturdy surface.
•
Ideally, the canopy should be fixed to a level concrete patio base using appropriate fixings. If the canopy is to stand on grass, it is important that
the canopy is level in order to ensure a smooth retracting mechanism, and the canopy should be secured into place using fixing pegs (supplied).
•
When erecting the canopy frame, judgement should be used to determine the most appropriate fixing component to attach the metal plates to
the exterior wall, bearing in mind the strength and condition of the wall. If deemed inappropriate, substitute the included wall fixing.
•
Please note that the St. Tropez Canopy is not designed to be used as a rain shelter, despite the polyester canopy being shower proof.
•
We recommend that the polyester canopy be fully retracted when not in use.
•
The polyester canopy should be fully removed in anticipation of strong winds and during the winter period.
•
The polyester canopy must be completely dry before storage.
•
Eyelets in the canvas are drain holes to prevent water collecting and stretching the canvas.
Maintenance
•
To clean the polyester canopy, sponge clean using a mild soap and water solution and leave to dry naturally. Do not use bleach, acid or
other solvents.
•
Do not machine wash.
•
Do not tumble dry.
Safety
In order to gain the most from your new canopy, attention should be paid to the following safety precautions:
1.
Periodically check bolts and fittings for tightness as they may work loose over time, taking care not to over-tighten fittings as this may
damage the metalwork. For this reason, we do not recommend the use of power tools to assemble the canopy frame.
2.
Please note that the metal frame is not to be used as a climbing frame.
