- Ensure the power port is connected to a suitable outdoor-rated extension cord and power source.
- Always keep the power port cover closed when not in use and ensure connections are dry to prevent electrical hazards.

6.2 Utilizing Shelves and Hooks
The gazebo includes integrated shelves and hooks for practical storage.

- Use the hooks to hang grilling tools, towels, or other lightweight accessories.
6.3 Ceiling Hook Usage
A sturdy ceiling hook is provided for hanging decorative elements.
- The hook is designed for lightweight items such as outdoor chandeliers or hanging plants.
- Do not exceed the weight limit specified in the assembly guide (if provided) and avoid hanging heavy objects that could compromise the gazebo's structure or cause injury.
7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance will help preserve the appearance and functionality of your gazebo.
- Cleaning: Clean the steel roof and cedar wood frame periodically with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
- Fastener Checks: Periodically inspect all bolts and screws to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as necessary to maintain structural integrity.
- Wood Care: The cedar wood frame is treated, but occasional re-sealing or re-staining may be beneficial to protect against weathering and maintain its appearance, depending on your local climate.
- Winter Preparation: While the gazebo is designed to withstand snow, heavy accumulation should be cleared from the roof to prevent excessive stress on the structure.
8. Troubleshooting
