Operation

Your tectake Ariane Hanging Egg Chair is designed for comfortable relaxation. Here are some operational guidelines:

• Adjusting Seat Height: The steel chain allows for height adjustment. To change the seat height, carefully lift the basket, adjust the chain length by hooking it to a different link on the spring mechanism, and then gently lower the basket. Always ensure the chain is securely hooked before sitting.
• Swinging Motion: The robust spring provides a comfortable and gentle swinging motion. Avoid aggressive or sudden movements.
• Entering and Exiting: When entering or exiting the chair, do so slowly and carefully to maintain balance and prevent tipping.

Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will extend the life of your hanging egg chair.

• Cleaning the Frame: Wipe the powder-coated steel frame with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
• Cleaning Cushions: The polyester cushion covers are maintenance-friendly and water-repellent. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleaning, the covers may be removable (check for zippers or fasteners). Allow to air dry completely before reattaching.
• Storage: When not in use, especially during adverse weather conditions or for extended periods, use the provided protective cover. The seat basket is foldable for compact storage and easy transport.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your chair, refer to the following common solutions:

• Chair feels unstable:
  • Ensure the chair is placed on a flat, level surface.
  • Check all bolts and connections for tightness. Retighten if necessary.
  • Verify that the non-slip caps on the base feet are intact and properly positioned.
• Squeaking noise during swinging:
  • Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the spring and chain connection points.
  • Check for any friction points between metal components.
• Difficulty adjusting height:
  • Ensure the chain links are free from obstruction.
  • Do not attempt to adjust height while seated in the chair.
