Troubleshooting
Umbrella does not open fully.
Ensure the automatic button is pressed firmly. If resistance persists, gently pull the canopy upwards by hand to fully extend it.
Umbrella feels stiff to close.
Make sure the canopy is completely dry. Press the release button and gently guide the canopy down. Avoid forcing it.
Canopy is creased or not sitting flat.
Allow the umbrella to dry fully while open. Minor creases usually resolve with use. For stubborn creases, hang it open to dry in a warm, humid environment briefly.
Wooden handle shows signs of dryness.
You can apply a small amount of wood polish or beeswax to the handle and shaft and buff gently with a soft cloth.
