In order to keep your Custom Outdoor Furniture—Push Up Umbrella in top condition and functioning normally, here are some general guidelines:

　　When opening the Push Up Umbrella, please open it gently, do not open it forcefully, because this may damage its mechanical structure and shorten its life. If your umbrella is not easy to open, check to make sure that the pulleys, ribs, and/or canopy are not crossing underneath.

　　Close the cover when not in use. Do not open it when unattended.

　　Use a protective cover whenever possible, not only in the off-season but also during long periods of inactivity.

　　Please keep the umbrella dry when not in use. Although most fabrics are weather-resistant, prolonged humidity can cause mold and shorten the life of the umbrella.

　　Cleaning the umbrella stand: The instructions for cleaning the umbrella stand are the same as those for metal, wood, or mixed materials. Please use a damp cloth to wipe the ribs, final parts, and poles. If it is particularly dirty, use mild soap, but avoid harsh or abrasive cleaners.

　　Cleaning the canopy: The first thing to know is that you should not pressure wash the cover or put it in the dryer. In addition to these two limitations, cleaning your umbrella canopy is simple. Regardless of the material used, the instructions for cleaning the Push Up Umbrella ceiling are practically the same. The first suggestion is to try to clean the canopy while it is still on the frame. Use a garden hose with a spray attachment to moisten the canopy, possibly with neutral soap or bleach to remove hard stains, and then use a moderately gentle nylon bristle brush to remove surface dirt and debris. Rinse off when finished. If this method does not work, you can remove the cover from the frame and gently put it in the washing machine. After taking it out of the washing machine, put the cover back on the frame to complete drying. Similarly, do not put it in a clothes dryer.
