Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging and lay them out on a soft, flat surface to avoid damage.
2. Assemble Frame Sides: Connect the horizontal bars to the vertical frame posts. Ensure the metal stops on the frame sides face the back of the unit.

4. Attach Wood Top: Place the wood top panel onto the assembled frame. Align the pre-drilled holes and secure it with the appropriate screws.

Operating Instructions

• Drawer Use: Gently pull and push the fabric drawers using the integrated handles. Avoid forcing drawers, as this may damage the fabric or frame.
• Weight Distribution: Distribute items evenly within each drawer and across the unit to maintain stability. Avoid placing excessively heavy items in a single drawer or on the top surface.
• Top Surface: The wood top can be used for displaying lightweight decorative items, lamps, or other small objects. Ensure items placed on top do not exceed the unit's stability limits.

Maintenance

• Cleaning the Frame and Top: Wipe the steel frame and wood top with a dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
• Cleaning Fabric Drawers: The fabric drawers can be spot cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow them to air dry completely before reinserting. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
• Regular Checks: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if any looseness is detected.

Troubleshooting

• Unit is Wobbly:
  • Ensure the unit is placed on a flat, level surface.
  • Adjust the leveling feet at the bottom of the frame until the unit is stable.
  • Check all frame connections and tighten any loose screws.
• Drawers Do Not Slide Smoothly:
  • Verify that the rigid base panel is fully inserted into the bottom of each fabric drawer.
  • Ensure drawers are not overloaded, which can cause them to sag.
  • Check for any obstructions in the drawer slots.
