Setup
1. Initial Inspection
Upon receiving your luggage, carefully inspect it for any signs of damage during transit. Ensure all zippers, handles, and wheels are functioning correctly.
2. Setting the TSA Combination Lock
Your Chatelet Air 2.0 luggage is equipped with a recessed 3-dial TSA-approved combination lock for enhanced security. To set your personal combination:
- The lock is preset to 0-0-0. Locate the small reset button (usually a tiny hole) next to the dials.
- Use a pen or a pointed object to press and hold the reset button.
- While holding the reset button, set your desired 3-digit combination by turning the dials.
- Release the reset button. Your new combination is now set. Remember your combination as DELSEY PARIS cannot open your luggage if you forget it.

Operating
1. Packing Your Luggage
The deluxe interior of your Chatelet Air 2.0 offers ample space and organization. Utilize the mesh zippered pockets for smaller items and the included laundry and shoe bags to keep your belongings tidy and separate. The internal compression straps help secure your packed items, preventing shifting during transit.

2. Using the Spinner Wheels
Your luggage features dual-density, double-spinner wheels designed for multi-directional rolling with zero weight on your hand. This allows for effortless maneuverability through airports and other travel environments. Ensure the wheels are free of debris for optimal performance.

3. Retractable Handle and Carrying Handles
The ergonomical handle extends and retracts smoothly for easy maneuverability. Additionally, soft-grip top and side carrying handles are provided for convenient lifting and carrying, especially when placing the luggage in overhead compartments or on baggage carousels.

Maintenance
1. Cleaning Instructions
- Exterior: Wipe the polycarbonate shell with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners that may scratch the surface.
- Interior: The lining is coated with SILVADUR technology for effective odor control. For cleaning, wipe with a damp cloth. Do not machine wash.
- Faux Leather Accents: Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid excessive moisture.
2. Storage
Store your luggage in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure it is empty and clean before storing to prevent odors or mildew.
Troubleshooting
- Stuck Retractable Handle: Ensure no items inside the luggage are obstructing the handle mechanism. Gently pull and push the handle to dislodge any obstructions.
- Stiff Wheels: Check for any debris (hair, lint, dirt) caught in the wheel axles. Clean the wheels thoroughly. If the issue persists, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the axles.
- Lock Not Opening: Double-check your combination. If you have forgotten it, contact DELSEY PARIS customer support for assistance. Do not attempt to force the lock, as this may damage it.
- Zipper Issues: The patented SECURITECH zip is designed to be highly resistant. If a zipper becomes stiff, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or wax. Avoid overpacking, which can strain the zippers.
