CARE AND MAINTENANCE:
This item is intended for decorative and sunshade purposes only, and is not designed to withstand
severe weather, including high winds, sustained tropical downpours, and snow. In order to avoid damage
in such instances, remove any accumulated water and the roof immediately. Disassemble the item in the
reverse order of the assembly steps if necessary prior to a severe storm.
A partially disassembled item is likely not stable enough to resist high winds and other severe weather,
and therefore can be damaged and/or cause damage. Since assembly time is only approximately 20
minutes, complete disassembly is recommended prior to any major storm.
Do not use bleach, acid, or other abrasive cleaners on the roof or frame parts.
Steel components of garden accessories and furniture are treated with rust inhibiting paint. However, due
to the nature of steel, surface oxidation (rusting) will occur if this protective coating is scratched. This is a
natural process. To minimize this condition, it is recommended that care be taken when assembling and
handling the product, in order to prevent the paint from being scratched.
Surface rust can be removed easily using a very light application of common cooking oil. If surface
oxidation (rusting) occurs and no measures are taken to correct it, the oxidation may start dripping onto
the assembly surface, which may cause damaging stains that may be difficult to remove.
If the product will not be used for a long period (e.g. winter time), it should be stored in a clean, dry
environment.
Keep the original packaging to store the item.
