MAINTENANCE
SHELL
Use common kitchen cleaning
products. Avoid using aggressive
products. These surfaces are best
cleaned with a neutral cleaning
product diluted in water.
In case of stubborn stains, we
recommend using a magic sponge.
JATOBA
Jatoba wood requires little or no
maintenance. However, we strongly
advise you to remove persistent
dirt. To clean the wood you can
use special products (www.rmc-
extremis.be) or
simply a stiff bristle brush and some
water. Be careful not to irreparably
damage the wood fibres. For this
reason,
never use a high pressure
cleaner
as this will roughen
the wood’s smooth surface and
irreparably damage the wood’s
fibres.
At first, the wood will give off this
red
dye every time it comes into contact
with water. The dye that drips onto
the frame and the surface will
remain
water-soluble and will dissapear
entirely after a while.
We strongly recommend that you
treat your wood for indoor use with
wood oil to protect it from stains.
When delivered, the wooden parts
of our products are
untreated
.
Exposure to sun and rain will
gradually change their colour to
silvery grey, and also roughen the
surface. If you want to somewhat
retain their original colour, you
should oil them once a year. We
recommend using
RMC Hybrid
Wood Protector
(www.rmc-
extremis.com). RMC products for
wood treatment are available all over
the world. Visit the website www.

IMPORTANT!
Wood is a living matter and, in spite
of the superior quality provided
by jatoba, outdoors it constantly
has to adapt to extreme changes
in temperature and humidity.
Due to internal stress resulting
from these constant adaptations
the wood “warps”. This warping
can among other things lead to
cracking. Changes in colour or
wood structure may also appear.
These characteristics are typical of
the material and by choosing this
material you accept them.
Should any cracks appear, you can
simply sand them down either
by hand using sandpaper or
by means of a hand sander. To
protect any galvanised or painted
parts, cover the edges with highly
robust masking tape. Use 80-grit
sandpaper and start at the vertical
side of the tabletop. Keep the hand
sander parallel to the edge of the
tabletop. Lightly sand the edge until
it is smooth again. Now sand the rest
of the tabletop. Make sure that you
always hold the hand sander parallel
to the tabletop. Do not only sand
the crack, but the entire tabletop to
obtain a uniform result. To avoid
burrs, sand the top edge of the
tabletop by hand. When you have
removed all the burrs, you can treat
the wood with hardwood furniture
oil or leave it untreated, depending
on the desired effect.
POWDER COATED LEGS
Clean with lukewarm water and
a milddetergent.
DO NOT USE
abrasive scouring powders or
scourers as they will scratch the
surface.
CUSHION
First of all, prevent the cushion from
getting really dirty by storing it
indoors when not in use.
The best way to clean slightly dirty
cushions is to use a dry or slightly
damp cloth. Alternatively, you can
also use a vacuum cleaner with the
soft brush attachment.
Remove stains by immediately
dabbing them gently with an
absorbent cloth. Stains on the edge
of the cushion can be removed by
gently dabbing with small circular
movements from the outside
towards the centre of the stain. Any
persisting stains can be treated
with a soft sponge dipped in a
lukewarm soapy solution. If this
does not work, you can briefly soak
the cushion in lukewarm water with
a stain remover. In any case, we
recommend that you always test this
first on a part that is not visible and
that you always strictly follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not
use bleach!
Do not launder the cushion in a
washing machine!
MAGIC SPONGE
Only use the Miraclean sponge when
normal cleaning with lukewarm
water, soft soap and a normal sponge
isn’t sufficient!
If stubborn stains remain visible
after treatment according to the
instructions (see product manual),
you can use the MiraClean sponge
provided. Dip the sponge in water
and rub it over the stain.
Do not
rub too hard with this sponge
as
this might cause dull patches on a
surface.
There is
no need to use cleaning
products
. Water alone is sufficient.
