Care and Maintenance

The hardware components themselves require minimal maintenance. If they become dirty, wipe them with a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the finish of the screws or the wood of the dowels.

For the KALLAX shelf unit itself, refer to IKEA's care instructions.

Troubleshooting

This kit provides replacement hardware. Issues typically arise from incorrect assembly of the KALLAX unit rather than defects in the hardware itself. If you encounter difficulties during assembly:

• Verify Compatibility: Double-check that your IKEA shelf is indeed the KALLAX 3x4 unit (model 104.099.32) and not an EXPEDIT unit.
• Consult IKEA Manual: Refer to the original IKEA assembly manual for detailed step-by-step instructions and diagrams.
• Check Orientation: Ensure all panels and hardware are oriented correctly before tightening.
• Do Not Force: If parts do not fit easily, re-check the instructions and component orientation. Forcing parts can cause damage.
