AHH Spot Bean Bag Chairs How To Unzip Locked Liners
ahhhh...that spot's safe!
AHH Products has the original bean bags with washable covers plus water-repellent liners made of the same material that many outerwear coats use. In fact, we get our material from the same company that a big, brand-name coat company uses!
Below you will find instructions on how to unzip your liner. Do not force your zipper...it is child-resistant and is "locked" to keep the filling safely inside. (complies with Consumer Product Safety Commission guidelines)
Your liner's zipper does not have a pull-tab. You must make one to unlock your zipper. Notice the hole in the center of the zipper- head. This is where you will put the pull-tab that you make. Also look inside the little hole on the side of the zipper-head, you will see a thin tension bar that must be pushed UP.
Step 1: Make a Pull-Tab
Straighten out one side of a small paperclip.
Step 2: Find the Zipper-Head
Locate your zipper-head. It is at the end of the zipper, and can be tucked inside the fabric-fold. Look for the hole at the side of the zipper-head, towards the middle. If you can't see it, you will be able to find it by poking for it using your paperclip.
Step 3: Insert the Paperclip
Insert the straightened side of your paperclip into the zipper-head hole. Make sure the paperclip is UNDER the thin tension bar you located earlier. This means you want to insert the paperclip as close to the base of the zipper-head as possible, so it goes under the tension bar. (On the photo, the part of the zipper-head you see is the top, not the base.)
Step 4: Make Pull-Tab
Bend the straightened side of the paperclip back in, so that you have a pull-tab to open the zipper with.
Step 5: Open Zipper
Pull the paperclip down to open the zipper. When you finish filling your bean bag, pull the zipper closed with the paperclip. Remove the paperclip completely to "relock" your zipper.
If your zipper does not open, you have inserted it above the tension bar. Remove it and re-insert it under the tension bar, as close to the base of the zipper-head as possible.
IMPORTANT: after you remove the paperclip, push the zipper-head all the way to the end of the zipper with your finger so the filling cannot leak. It might tuck underneath the fabric fold, this is ok.
