Troubleshooting
Sun shade is unstable in wind
Ensure all guy ropes are securely fastened and taut. Use all provided pegs to anchor the shade firmly. Consider adding extra weight to the base if necessary, ensuring it does not compromise the structure.
Locking mechanism is difficult to engage/disengage
Check for any debris or obstructions around the locking system. Gently operate the mechanism to free it. If persistent, a small amount of silicone lubricant might help, but avoid over-application.
Water pooling on the canopy
Ensure the canopy is angled correctly using the 4-position function to allow water runoff. For prolonged rain, consider additional support or temporary removal if not designed for heavy precipitation.
Carry bag zipper is stuck
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Check for fabric caught in the teeth. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or wax can help.
