Troubleshooting Guide
| Problem | Solution |
| Item will not fully inflate | Make sure all zippers are closed. Check fabric for tears or holes. Confirm the fan intake is clear of debris or snow. If needed, unplug the fan and let it cool completely before removing obstructions. |
| Fan does not operate | Ensure the fan is plugged into a working outlet (indoor: standard AC outlet; outdoor: GFCI outlet). The fan may have overheated, unplug it, allow it to cool, then try again. |
When to Seek Assistance
- Check the outlet and cooling first, but if the fan still doesn’t run, assistance is required.
- Torn fabric that cannot be fixed on your own should be reported for repair or replacement.
- LED lights that stop working or wiring that shows visible damage need professional attention.
- Even with proper staking, a product that tips over easily may require expert support.

FAQs
1. Can I use an extension cord with this inflatable?
Yes, but only use an outdoor-rated extension cord for outdoor setups. Ensure the cord is long enough to prevent tension and keep all connections off the ground to avoid water exposure.
2. How long does it take for the inflatable to fully set up?
On average, it takes less than 2 minutes for the built-in fan to inflate the decoration completely, depending on outdoor conditions.
3. Can I leave the inflatable plugged in overnight?
It is not recommended. For safety and to extend the motor’s lifespan, unplug the inflatable when unattended or overnight.
4. What should I do if the inflatable leans to one side?
Check that all stakes and drawstrings are secured evenly. Uneven ground or loose ties can cause leaning. Reposition and tighten as needed.
5. Is the inflatable safe to place on grass, concrete, or indoors?
Yes, it can be used on grass, concrete, or indoors. For hard surfaces, ensure the base is weighted or secured since stakes may not be usable.
