Setup and Assembly

Assembly of the DORTALA Patio Dining Set requires careful attention. It is recommended that at least two adults participate in the assembly process to ensure safety and efficiency.

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Lay them out on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches. Verify all components listed in the "Package Contents" section are present.
2. Assemble Chairs:
   • Attach the chair backrest to the seat frame using the provided hardware.
   • Secure the armrests to the seat frame and backrest.
   • Ensure all screws are finger-tightened initially. Once all parts are aligned, fully tighten all screws.
   • Repeat for all eight chairs.
3. Assemble Table:
   • Attach the table legs to the tabletop frame.
   • Ensure the umbrella hole mechanism (if applicable) is correctly oriented.
   • Finger-tighten all screws first, then fully tighten once the table is stable and level.
4. Attach Cushions: Place the seat cushions onto the chairs. The cushions feature water-proof covers for durability.
5. Adjust Stability: Once assembled, adjust the anti-slip foot pads on both the table and chairs to ensure stability on uneven surfaces.

Operating Instructions

This dining set is designed for outdoor use, providing comfortable seating for up to eight individuals.

• Umbrella Hole: The dining table features a built-in umbrella hole (1.9 inches diameter) to accommodate most standard patio umbrellas (umbrella not included). Insert your umbrella pole through the hole and secure it as per your umbrella's instructions.
• Adjustable Feet: Each table and chair leg is equipped with adjustable anti-slip foot pads. Rotate these pads to level the furniture on uneven ground, ensuring maximum stability and preventing wobbling.
• Cushion Use: The included seat cushions provide enhanced comfort. While the covers are water-proof, it is recommended to store cushions indoors during heavy rain or prolonged periods of non-use to extend their lifespan.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance will ensure the longevity and appearance of your DORTALA Patio Dining Set.

• Cleaning: Wipe the PE rattan, steel frame, and acacia wood surfaces with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or excessive water, as these can damage the materials.
• Cushion Care: The cushion covers are removable and washable. For best results, hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Air dry only. Do not bleach or iron.
• Wood Care: The acacia wood tabletop and armrests may benefit from periodic oiling or application of a wood stain to maintain their appearance and protect against weathering, especially in harsh climates.
• Seasonal Storage: During off-seasons or extreme weather conditions, it is recommended to cover the furniture or store it in a sheltered area to protect it from prolonged exposure to elements.
• Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as necessary to maintain structural integrity.
