What do you have to do if...
Problem Solution approaches
| The shade is hard to open. Service the rods occasionally with silicon spray. | |
| Slip-marks on the aluminium rods. | These are normal marks of use which can be removed with a damp cloth. |
| No LED light Charge the battery pack and attach it correctly to the adapter plate. | |
| Battery deeply discharged after a long period of non-use (no reaction when pressing the status button, no LED lights up). | Connect the original charger supplied to the battery pack. The LED of the charger lights up green. This process can take several hours. Afterwards, the battery pack is charged normally. |
Handling and maintenance
- Allow the parasol to dry when open to prevent the formation of mould and discolouration.
- A protective sleeve protects the parasol and will extend its service life.
- Only pull the protective sleeve over the dry parasol when it is dry.
- Do not clean the protective sleeve in the washing machine. Do not use chemicals.
- Clean the parasol cover when needed with lukewarm water, fine detergents and a sponge.
- Do not use any bleach or sharp objects, to avoid damage to the cover.
- Check the tightness of all screws from time to time and tighten them if necessary.
- If the parasol is located in a highly exposed position, increased wear and tear must be expected. In such cases we recommend more intensive care and maintenance.
- In most cases, defective parasols can be repaired by your GLATZ partner. Only use original replacement parts FROM GLATZ.
Disassembly
Dismantle the parasol if it is not going to be used for a long time.
DANGER! DANGER OF TIPPING DANGER OF INJURY IF THE PARASOL TOPPLES OVER
- Close and tie the parasol properly.
- Dismantle the parasol in reverse mounting direction.
- Store the parasol in lying position together with all accessories in a dry place.
