Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the desk surfaces with a damp cloth using only water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the finish.
• Spills: Clean up spills immediately to prevent staining, especially on the unfinished wood components.
• Protection: Consider using a desk mat or protective placemat to shield the desktop from scratches, marker stains, or other damage, particularly if used by children.
• Inspection: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary.

Troubleshooting

• Desk Wobbles: Ensure all leg screws are fully tightened. Check that the desk is on a level surface. Adjust leg levelers if present (not specified for this model).
• Drawers Stick: Verify that the drawer slides are correctly aligned and free of obstructions. Ensure no items inside the drawer are preventing it from closing properly.
• Assembly Difficulties: If you encounter difficulty during assembly, re-read the instructions carefully. Ensure you are using the correct hardware for each step. Sometimes, parts may appear misaligned due to slight manufacturing variations; gentle force or re-orientation may be needed.
• Damaged Parts: If any parts arrive damaged, do not proceed with assembly. Contact customer support for replacement parts.
