MAINTENANCE
MAINTAINING THE JARDINICO CARACTÈRE FRAME AND FITTINGS
· Hose mast and frame with water periodically, more often if installation is in a
salty or industrial environment.
· Inspect the installation fittings, mount bolts, rib spacers, etc. on a regular basis
and tighten if necessary.
· Seaside and indoor pool use: Due to demands of both of these environments,
Jardinico Caractère recommends weekly or biweekly cleaning with mild soap
and water to remove the concentrated deposits and protect the powder coat
finish.
MAINTAINING THE JARDINICO CARACTÈRE CANOPY FABRIC
· Clean up spills and stains right away. Spills can be removed by using a clean
absorbent cloth.
· For general maintenance, use a soft brush to remove dust and dry soil. Wash
down with clean, warm water (i.e., garden hose) every so often to avoid dirt
becoming ingrained. Allow the fabric to air dry before closing the canopy.
· If a thorough cleaning is necessary, sponge over the fabric using a mild soap
solution (2% solution). Rinse well with plenty of water to remove all soap
residue.
· Never use detergents, cleaning fluids or solvents.
· Please visit the fabric websites for more details:
www.jardinico.com or www.sunbrella.com
· Use protective canopy cover during storage or when not in use.
