FAQs
Does the parasol come with base weights?
The parasol includes the metal cross base, but does not include the heavy weights required to keep it stable. You will need to purchase paving slabs or specific parasol weights.
Can the LED lights be replaced?
The LEDs are integrated into the ribs. While they are designed for longevity, they are not typically user-serviceable.
Is the fabric waterproof or just water-resistant?
The canopy is waterproof, meaning it provides protection against light to moderate rain, though it should be retracted during heavy rainfall.
How do I operate the tilt function?
The cantilever design allows for angle adjustment via the handle mechanism. Refer to your manual for the specific locking lever located on the main pole.
What is the diameter of the canopy?
The canopy spans 3 meters, providing excellent coverage for a standard patio table.
Troubleshooting
LED lights are not turning on at night
Ensure the solar panel is exposed to direct sunlight during the day and check that the small power switch under the hub is set to the ON position.
Parasol is wobbling or unstable
Check that the cross base is properly weighted with paving slabs or sandbags; the structure is not designed to remain stable without added counter-weight.
Crank is difficult to turn
Check for obstructions in the pulley line and ensure the canopy fabric is not snagged on the support ribs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Neo 3M Parasol involves attaching the main pole to the cross base. Because the base is a cross-style design, it is highly recommended to secure the base using concrete slabs or water-filled weights to prevent the unit from toppling over in light winds. For care and maintenance, wipe the frame periodically with a damp cloth to remove debris. To clean the canopy, use mild soapy water and a soft brush, rinsing thoroughly and allowing it to air dry completely before folding. Always store the parasol in a dry, protected location during the winter months to extend the life of the fabric and the solar battery system.
