1. Unpack and Verify: Carefully unpack all components and hardware. Compare them against the parts list provided in the separate assembly instructions to ensure all pieces are present and undamaged.

5. Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Vicco Charlotte Dressing Table.

• Cleaning the Surface: The dressing table and bench are made from 16mm particle board with a melamine resin coating. Clean surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or solvents, as these can damage the finish.
• Mirror Cleaning: Use a glass cleaner and a soft, lint-free cloth to clean the mirror. Spray cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the mirror, to prevent liquid from seeping into edges.
• Spill Management: Wipe up spills immediately with a dry cloth to prevent moisture damage.
• Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary.
• Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading or discoloration of the finish.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues during assembly or use, consider the following:

• Difficulty Assembling: If assembly seems difficult, double-check that you are using the correct parts for each step as indicated in the assembly instructions. Sometimes, parts may appear similar but have subtle differences. Ensure all components are oriented correctly.
• Missing Parts: If any parts are missing or damaged upon unpacking, do not proceed with assembly. Contact Vicco customer support immediately for assistance.
• Wobbly Structure: A wobbly dressing table or bench usually indicates that fasteners are not fully tightened or that the unit is not on a level surface. Check all connections and ensure the furniture is placed on an even floor. Wall anchoring is also recommended for stability.
• Drawers Not Sliding Smoothly: Ensure drawer slides are correctly installed and aligned. Check for any obstructions in the drawer runners.
