6. Maintenance

Regular cleaning and care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your cabinet.

• Cleaning Surfaces: Wipe all surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild, non-abrasive cleaner can be used. Dry immediately with a clean cloth.
• Cleaning Glass Doors: Use a standard glass cleaner and a lint-free cloth for the glass panels. Avoid spraying cleaner directly onto the wood frame.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or ammonia-based products, as these can damage the finish and materials.
• Check Connections: Periodically check all screws and fittings to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary.

This section addresses common issues you might encounter.

• Doors Not Aligning: Adjust the hinges using a screwdriver. Most hinges allow for minor adjustments in multiple directions to achieve proper door alignment.
• Cabinet Wobbles: Ensure the cabinet is placed on a level surface. If wobbling persists, check all assembly screws for tightness. If wall-mounted, ensure the anti-tip kit is securely installed.
• Difficulty Closing Doors: Check if any items inside are obstructing the door path. Verify that the magnetic catches are properly aligned and functional.
