1. Adjusting Shelves: To adjust a shelf, carefully remove any items from it. Lift the shelf slightly and pull it out. Reposition the shelf supports to the desired height and then place the shelf back onto the supports, ensuring it is level and secure.
2. Weight Capacity: Do not exceed the recommended weight capacity for each shelf. Distribute items evenly to prevent bowing or damage.

6. Care and Maintenance

6.1. Cleaning

• Wood Surfaces: Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth with a mild wood cleaner, then immediately wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
• Glass Doors: Clean glass with a standard glass cleaner and a soft, lint-free cloth. Spray cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the glass, to prevent overspray onto wood surfaces.
• Hardware: Wipe antique brass hardware with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using metal polishes or abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the pewter overlay finish.

6.2. General Care

• Temperature and Humidity: Maintain a consistent room temperature and humidity level to prevent wood from expanding, contracting, or cracking.
• Spills: Wipe up spills immediately with a soft, dry cloth to prevent water marks or damage to the finish.
• Protection: Use coasters or placemats under hot or wet items to protect the top surface.
• Moving: When moving the cabinet, always lift it rather than dragging it to prevent damage to the legs and frame.
