STORING THE UMBRELLA
1. Freestanding
It is recommended to secure the canopy cover from moving in the wind with the binding belt and to pull the
protective bag over the umbrella. Movement in the canopy cover can chafe and can wear itself through at the frame.
This is not covered by the warranty. If the protective bag is used, the umbrella should be completely dry. If the cover
is wet, mold and mildew can form.
If you do not have a ground sleeve/permanent stand, be warned, that even a closed umbrella can be blown over
with very high winds. Make sure that the stand is sufficiently ballasted or store the umbrella horizontally in a dry
room.
2. Storage
Store the umbrella in a dry and clean place, that is free of pests. The canopy cover should be completely dry to
prevent mold or mildew from forming.
MAINTAINING THE CANOPY
Wet umbrellas should never be stored or kept in their protection bags for long periods of time.
Fallen leaves and other foliage should be removed immediately to avoid staining or fungus growth on fabric.
Microorganisms (mold, bacteria, blue-green algae, algae) can develop if the conditions of trapped moister, dirt and
heat extended for long periods of time. In the past years many microcides, although very effective, have been ban-
ned by law in most coutries of Western Europe because of their toxicity, and have been replaced by other less pollu-
ting microcids. These however, show different and generally more limited spectra of effect.
Dirt is best brushed off dry on a regular basis. Stains can be treated with lukewarm water and a soft brush. Treat
stubborn stains by hand washing with some commercial mild detergent, rinse well with clear water, let dry and
treat with water repellent if necessary afterwards. Speciality dealers may offer special liquid detergents, follow
instructions carefully.
WASH IN COLD WATER ONLY!
DO NOT WASH IN WARM OR HOT WATER!
Acrylic fabrics shrink even at low temperatures!
MAINTAINING THE FRAME
Wash the surfaces with water and mild detergent if necessary. Stainless steel parts can be brightened with
commercial stainless steel polish. Lubricate all joints and rollers with oil or silicone spray.
