CARE INSTRUCTIONS
1/ Your product
Properties
Aluminium is a light, resistant material that doesn't rust.
Manufacturing and assembly
The manufacturing then assembly of this product requires leaving clearance between the different
parts.
It is therefore normal to observe gaps/slack that may reach several millimetres between the different
assembled elements (between two slats, between boards...).
This tolerance necessary for the correct realisation of your product can be behind little geometric
differences.
This does not lead to any loss of function of your product.
Irregular appearance
Each product is manufactured and assembled industrially from parts whose surface treatment is
carried out individually, before assembly. These metallic elements cannot be free from appearance
irregularities coming both from the surface treatment process and assembly operations. The final
appearance of the product is therefore directly linked to these possible irregularities.
2/ Precautions for use
Do not put hot objects on the table itself, they will leave permanent marks on it (discoloration,
deformation, cracks…). Always use table mats.
Do not use a plastic tablecloth on the table. Exposed to UV and heat, it would melt and act as a
decal, especially on steel, aluminum and glass. This would result in irreparable deterioration of the
tray in the form of white streaks. Instead, use a fabric tablecloth.
3/ Maintenance and ageing, siding
It is normal to note natural wear and tear of the product over time and with use, in the form of an
alteration of the colours and the state of the surface, the mechanical functions and tightening of the
screwed elements.
Exposure to UV rays
Over time, you can see a discoloration of the materials exposed to UV rays (textiles, paint, plastics), a
phenomenon also due to the rays of the sun as well as those of the moon. This evolution of colours
exposed to external elements is normal and concerns in particular bright colours.
Tightening
The assembly parts of your product become loose over time. Think of tightening them regularly.
Everyday maintenance
Your product is subject to external elements, it must therefore be regularly cleaned.
Remove stains immediately.
Clean with a damp cloth soaked in warm soapy water (or hot water for more marked dirt) or a
specific, adapted product.
Rinse thoroughly.
Finish with a clean, dry cloth.
If in doubt, consult a reseller or the material sheet on the Hesperide.com website.
In the absence of regular cleaning your product will imperatively deteriorate.
Weather conditions (wind, rain, snow, hail, salty winds)
The outdoor furniture is designed to be used in normal outdoor weather conditions. Strong climatic
hazards or exceptional weather conditions can have repercussions on the look, correct use and
lifespan of the product. It is strongly advised to use tarpaulin with a ventilation system during the
season when the furniture remains outside.
Rain and humidity
If it is left out in water, the furniture will take several days to dry. Nothing abnormal in that, but ensure
that you wipe it to prevent the water from stagnating on it. The presence of prolonged humidity
speeds up the product ageing and favours the appearance of rust indeed mould.
Temperature conditions
Outdoor furniture is not made to bear low temperature conditions, even less winter temperatures,
which are likely to alter its correct operating and its surface condition. it is also sensitive to ambient
humidity. It is therefore advised to store it in a dry, ventilated and closed place. Putting a tarpaulin on
it is therefore not necessary. Before any siding, clean and dry the products well, to prevent the
appearance of unpleasant odours or mould.
If you do not have a dry, ventilated and closed place, the use of tarpaulin with a ventilation system is
essential to cover the furniture that remains outside. A protective tarpaulin in fact reduces the impact
of external aggressions (damage due to trees, animals, pollution,...) over its lifespan. If the floor is
damp, it is advised to insert a wedge between the floor and the feet to avoid a transfer of humidity. In
the event of a table that spends winter outside, giving a slight angle also prevents water and dead
leaves collecting on the tarpaulin.
In the event of prolonged non-use, if the storage and tidying away recommendations are not followed,
the result will be an accelerated deterioration to its surface condition and its correct operating.
Protection of the screws and bolts
Steel is a material that exposed to external elements (humidity, salty winds) will naturally oxidise. To
prevent the appearance of rust, our steel furniture is delivered original with an Epoxy treatment.
However this layer gradually disappears under the effect of external elements and must be renewed
regularly. For this, apply an anti-rust aerosol at least once at the beginning and end of the season
(available in hardware shops or DIY shops). Increase the treatment frequency every 3 months for
furniture exposed to salty sea winds.
The screws and bolts must also be the subject of such a treatment.
If the rust appears despite all that, it can easily be treated and removed with the usual products such
as white vinegar or citric acid. A cloth soaked with car polish can also allow you to remove the rust
spots. Finish with an anti-rust spray to protect the furniture, to apply regularly.
