This 2.7m LED tilt parasol is designed for homeowners looking to enhance their outdoor living spaces with both shade and ambient lighting. Its key benefit is providing versatile sun protection with the added advantage of solar-powered LED lights for evening ambiance. A potential caveat is the need for a weighted base for optimal stability. This parasol features a durable carbon steel frame, a water-resistant polyester canopy, an easy-to-use crank mechanism, an adjustable tilt function, and integrated cool white LED lights powered by solar energy.

The parasol pole has a diameter of 38mm.
The LED lights are powered by an integrated solar panel on the canopy. They charge during the day and operate in the evening.
No, this parasol does not include a base. A weighted base is recommended for stability and must be purchased separately.
The 180g polyester canopy is water-resistant, offering protection from light rain. It is not designed to withstand heavy downpours.
You can clean the canopy with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using abrasive cleaners. Ensure the solar panel remains clean for optimal charging.
The parasol has a canopy span of 2.7 meters, providing ample shade.
Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer. Please check your purchase documentation or contact the seller for details on the warranty period and terms.
Ensure the parasol is secured in a weighted base or a stable patio table. If using a base, verify it is heavy enough for the parasol size and placed on level ground. Check that the pole is fully inserted and secured.
Ensure the solar panel on the canopy is clean and free from debris. Position the parasol in direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours to fully charge the battery. Check if the on/off switch for the lights is in the 'on' position. In prolonged dark conditions, the lights may not activate until fully charged.
Check for any obstructions around the crank mechanism. Gently try to operate it. If still stiff, lubricate the moving parts of the crank with a silicone-based lubricant suitable for outdoor use.
This is normal wear from prolonged sun exposure. To minimize future fading, use the provided rain cover when the parasol is not in use and consider closing it during the hottest parts of the day.
Ensure the tilt mechanism is not obstructed. Try fully opening and closing the parasol to reset the mechanism. Refer to the specific tilt adjustment instructions if provided separately.
Setup: The parasol is designed for straightforward setup. Insert the pole into a suitable base or through the center of your patio table. Ensure the base is stable and provides adequate support. Use the smooth crank mechanism located on the pole to open the canopy. Adjust the tilt by locating the tilt mechanism, typically a button or lever near the crank, and position the canopy as desired.
Compatibility: This parasol is designed to fit most standard patio table openings (38mm pole diameter). For optimal stability, it is recommended to use a weighted parasol base (minimum recommended weight varies by manufacturer, but typically 15-25kg is advised for this size). The solar lights are powered by an integrated solar panel on the canopy, requiring direct sunlight to charge.
Care: To maintain the parasol's condition, always close it during high winds or inclement weather. Use the provided waterproof Oxford fabric rain cover when the parasol is not in use for extended periods or during adverse weather to protect the canopy and frame from the elements. Clean the canopy with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary; avoid abrasive cleaners. Ensure the solar panel for the LED lights is kept clean to maximize charging efficiency. Store in a dry place when not in use during the off-season.
