Gemmy 20FT Colossal Airblown Inflatable Santa Claus Instruction Manual

Important Safety Instructions

• Always ensure the inflatable is securely anchored to the ground using all provided stakes and ropes to prevent it from blowing away in windy conditions.
• Keep the fan unit clear of obstructions (leaves, debris, snow) to ensure proper airflow and prevent overheating.
• Do not operate the inflatable near open flames, heaters, or other heat sources.
• Ensure all electrical connections are dry and protected from moisture. Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) for outdoor use.
• Do not allow children to play on or around the inflatable. This is a decoration, not a toy.
• Inspect the inflatable and electrical components for damage before each use. Do not use if damaged.
• Unplug the inflatable when not in use or during severe weather conditions.

Package Contents

Your Gemmy 20FT Colossal Airblown Inflatable Santa Claus package includes:

• 1 x 20FT Colossal Airblown Inflatable Santa Claus
• 1 x Internal Heavy Duty Fan
• Internal Lights (pre-installed)
• Ropes for securing
• Stakes for securing

Setup Instructions

Follow these steps for easy assembly and setup:

1. Unpack: Carefully remove the inflatable from its packaging. Lay it flat on a clean, dry surface in the desired display area. Ensure the area is free of sharp objects or debris that could puncture the material.
2. Position: Place the inflatable in your chosen indoor or outdoor location. For outdoor use, select a spot with access to a power outlet and sufficient space for the 20-foot height and 11-foot width.
3. Connect Power: Locate the internal heavy-duty fan and ensure its power cord is accessible. Plug the power cord into a suitable electrical outlet. The inflatable will begin to inflate automatically.
4. Inflate: Allow the fan to run until the Santa Claus inflatable is fully expanded and standing upright. This typically takes a few minutes.
5. Secure: Once fully inflated, use the provided ropes and stakes to anchor the inflatable securely to the ground. Attach ropes to the designated tie-down points on the inflatable and secure them with stakes. This is crucial for stability, especially in outdoor environments.

Operating Instructions

Operating your Gemmy inflatable is straightforward:

• Power On: The inflatable will begin to inflate as soon as it is plugged into a live electrical outlet.
• Continuous Operation: For the inflatable to remain inflated and illuminated, it must remain continuously plugged into the power source.
• Nighttime Display: The internal lights will automatically illuminate when powered, providing a glowing display for nighttime visibility.
• Power Off: To deflate the inflatable, simply unplug it from the electrical outlet. It will slowly deflate on its own.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity of your inflatable:

• Cleaning: To clean the inflatable, wipe it down with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the material.
• Storage: Before storing, ensure the inflatable is completely dry to prevent mold or mildew. Deflate it fully, fold it neatly, and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and pests.
• Repair: In case of small punctures or tears, repair kits (often sold separately or included with similar products) can be used. Follow the repair kit instructions carefully.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your inflatable, refer to the following:

• Inflatable Not Inflating:
  • Check if the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet.
  • Ensure the fan is free from obstructions.
  • Verify that all zippers on the inflatable are fully closed to prevent air leakage.
• Inflatable Falling Over:
  • Ensure all ropes and stakes are properly installed and tightened.
  • Check for strong winds; consider deflating during severe weather.
• Lights Not Working:
  • Confirm the inflatable is powered on.
  • Check for loose connections to the internal lights.
  • If individual bulbs are replaceable, check for burnt-out bulbs (refer to specific bulb replacement instructions if available).
