5.1 Basic Height Adjustment
- To Raise: Press and hold the "Up" arrow button on the control panel. The desk will move upwards. Release the button at your desired height.
- To Lower: Press and hold the "Down" arrow button on the control panel. The desk will move downwards. Release the button at your desired height.
- The desk can be adjusted smoothly between 72 cm and 120 cm.
5.2 Memory Presets
The desk allows you to store up to 4 preferred heights for quick adjustments:
- Adjust the desk to your desired height using the Up/Down buttons.
- Press the "M" button (Memory) once. The display will show "S-".
- Within 3 seconds, press one of the numbered preset buttons (1, 2, 3, or 4). The display will show "S-1", "S-2", etc., confirming the height has been saved.
- To recall a saved height, simply press the corresponding numbered preset button (1, 2, 3, or 4). The desk will automatically move to that stored position.
5.3 Collision Protection (Rear-End Protection)
The desk is equipped with a built-in sensor to detect obstacles during height adjustment, preventing collisions and potential damage. If an obstacle is detected, the desk will stop and reverse slightly.
- Adjusting Sensitivity: The sensitivity of the collision sensor can be adjusted. Refer to the detailed assembly guide or contact customer support for instructions on how to modify this setting. A higher sensitivity value means the desk will detect objects more easily.
5.4 Overheating Protection
To prevent motor damage, the desk has an overheating protection feature. If the desk is operated continuously for approximately 2 minutes (e.g., frequent up/down adjustments), the system will temporarily shut down. The display may show an error code or become unresponsive. Allow the desk to cool down for about 18 minutes before attempting further adjustments.
6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your electric desk:
- Cleaning: Wipe the tabletop and frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the surface. Ensure no liquids enter the electrical components.
- Check Connections: Periodically inspect all electrical connections (power adapter, control panel, motor cables) to ensure they are securely plugged in and free from damage.
- Lubrication: The lifting columns are generally maintenance-free. Do not apply lubricants unless specifically instructed by the manufacturer.
- Load Capacity: Always adhere to the maximum load capacity of 80 kg (176 lbs) to prevent strain on the motor and frame.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your desk, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
