Maintenance
Cleaning
To clean the cabinet, simply wipe surfaces with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the finish. Dry immediately with a clean, soft cloth.
General Care
- Periodically check all screws and fittings to ensure they remain tight. Retighten as necessary.
- Avoid exposing the cabinet to direct sunlight or extreme temperature changes, which can cause warping or fading.
- Do not place hot items directly on the cabinet surface without protection.
Troubleshooting
Drawers do not slide smoothly:
- Check alignment: Ensure drawer slides are correctly aligned and securely fastened to both the drawer and the cabinet frame.
- Obstructions: Look for any debris or objects obstructing the drawer slides.
- Overload: Ensure drawers are not overloaded beyond their weight capacity (22 lbs per drawer).
Cabinet is wobbly:
