Safety Warnings

Operation

Placing Cushions
Level the chair using the foot glides at the bottom of the legs if necessary. Place the seat cushions, back cushions, and lumbar pillows onto the chairs.
Operating Recliners
The recliner uses the user's center of gravity to hold the second position. When in the first position with the leg rest up, ensure your body weight is in the center of the frame (furthest back against the backrest), then push back to engage the second position. This is particularly important for smaller individuals to ensure the backrest remains stable.
Care and Maintenance

Frame
Clean the frame with mild soap and water. Do not use abrasive materials or products containing bleach. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. Before storing, ensure the frame is clean and dry. Drain any water that may have collected inside the frame tubing to prevent damage during freezing temperatures.
Fabric
Clean Sunbrella fabric regularly. Brush off loose dirt and wash with a mild soap and lukewarm water solution. For stubborn stains or mildew, use a solution of 236 ml (1 cup) of bleach and 59 ml (1/4 cup) of mild soap per 3.8 L (1 gallon) of water. Wear rubber gloves when handling bleach. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as cushions may shrink.
Mechanism Lubrication
You must lubricate the key points of the reclining mechanism with silicon at least every 12 months.
