Operating Instructions
Your tectake 2-in-1 Garden Chair & Lounger offers versatile relaxation options.
2-in-1 Function: Lounger to Rocking Chair
The unique design allows you to easily switch between a comfortable lounger and a relaxing rocking chair.
- Lounger Mode: To use as a lounger, extend the footrest fully. The chair will rest on its anti-slip feet, providing a stable reclining position.
- Rocking Chair Mode: To transform into a rocking chair, gently fold the footrest inwards and tuck it underneath the main seat frame. The chair will then rest on its curved base, allowing for a smooth rocking motion. Ensure the footrest is fully secured in its folded position before rocking.

Adjusting the Backrest
The backrest can be adjusted to 4 different positions for optimal comfort, whether you are sitting upright, reclining, or lying down.
- To adjust the backrest, slightly lift the backrest while seated or standing beside the chair.
- Locate the adjustment mechanism on the side of the chair (typically a notched bar or lever).
- Move the backrest to your desired angle and ensure it locks securely into one of the four available positions.
- Always ensure the backrest is fully engaged in a notch before applying your full weight.
