Maintenance

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Lid does not close properly. | Obstruction inside the bench; misaligned panels; piston mechanism issue. | Remove any items blocking the lid. Check panel alignment and re-secure if necessary. Inspect piston for damage. |
| Water inside the bench after rain. | Lid not fully closed; extreme weather conditions; seals compromised. | Ensure lid is completely closed. While water-repellent, heavy rain or standing water may seep in. Check for any gaps or damage to the structure. |
