Setup Instructions

Assembly is required for the Real Flame Calvin Outdoor Chair Set. Please ensure all components are present before beginning assembly. It is recommended to assemble the chairs on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratching.

Included Components:

• 2 x Calvin Aluminum Patio Dining Arm Chairs (unassembled)
• Cushions for 2 chairs
• Assembly hardware (bolts, washers, nuts, screw cap covers)
• Hex tool (for tightening bolts)

Assembly Steps:

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Verify that all listed components and hardware are present.
2. Attach Legs to Seat Frame: Align the chair legs with the designated attachment points on the seat frame. Insert bolts through the holes and secure them with washers and nuts. Do not fully tighten at this stage.
3. Attach Backrest: Connect the backrest to the seat frame and armrests. Insert bolts and secure with washers and nuts. Ensure all connections are loosely fitted.
4. Tighten All Hardware: Once all components are assembled, place the chair on a level surface. Gradually tighten all bolts using the provided hex tool. Ensure all connections are secure but do not overtighten. Note: Some users have found the included hex tool to be insufficient; a personal hex wrench may provide better leverage.
5. Install Screw Cap Covers: Press the screw cap covers over the exposed bolt heads. Note: Some covers may not snap securely; ensure they are firmly seated.
6. Place Cushions: Position the seat cushions on the assembled chairs.

Operating Instructions

The Real Flame Calvin Outdoor Chairs are designed for comfortable seating in outdoor environments.

• Intended Use: These chairs are intended for outdoor seating. Do not use indoors unless specifically stated.
• Weight Capacity: Each chair has a maximum weight recommendation of 250 pounds (approximately 113 kg). Do not exceed this limit to ensure safety and product longevity.
• Placement: Place chairs on a stable, level surface. Adjustable feet may be present to compensate for uneven surfaces.
• Movement: When moving the chairs, lift them rather than dragging to prevent damage to the legs or frame.

Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will extend the life and appearance of your Real Flame Calvin Outdoor Chairs.

Frame and Wicker Care:

• Cleaning: Clean the aluminum frame and resin wicker with a mild soap and water solution. Use a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry completely to prevent water spots.
• Rust Resistance: The aluminum frame is rust-resistant. However, regular cleaning helps maintain its protective finish.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, bleach, or strong chemical solvents, as these can damage the finish and wicker material.

Cushion Care:

• Spot Cleaning: For minor spills, spot clean the solution-dyed acrylic fabric with a mild soap and water solution. Blot dry with a clean cloth.
• Deep Cleaning: For more stubborn stains, a specialized outdoor fabric cleaner may be used, following the product instructions.
• Washing: The cushion covers are generally not suitable for machine washing. Refer to any specific care tags on the cushions for detailed instructions.
• Storage: Store cushions in a dry, protected area when not in use or during inclement weather to prevent mildew and fading.

General Care:

• Weather Protection: While designed for outdoor use, prolonged exposure to extreme weather conditions (heavy rain, snow, intense sun) can affect the product's lifespan. Consider using outdoor furniture covers or storing the chairs in a sheltered area during off-seasons.
• Hardware Check: Periodically check all bolts and connections to ensure they remain tight. Retighten as necessary.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Calvin Outdoor Chair Set.

Chair Wobbles After Assembly:

• Solution: Ensure all bolts are tightened evenly. Loosen all bolts slightly, place the chair on a level surface, apply gentle pressure to the seat, and then retighten all bolts. Check if the adjustable feet (if present) are properly adjusted.

Screw Cap Covers Do Not Stay On:

• Solution: Ensure the bolt heads are fully seated and not protruding. Apply firm, even pressure when attaching the caps. If they still do not secure, contact customer support for replacement parts.

Cushions Appear Flat or Damaged:

• Solution: Ensure cushions are stored properly when not in use to prevent moisture damage or compression. Fluff cushions regularly. If damage occurred during shipping, refer to the warranty section.
