5. Assembly Instructions
The Galano Isadora TV Stand requires assembly. For optimal results and ease of construction, it is recommended to have two people for assembly, especially when handling larger panels and attaching doors. Please refer to the detailed assembly manual included in your package for step-by-step instructions and diagrams.
General Assembly Steps:
- Preparation: Clear a spacious area for assembly. Lay out all components on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches. Identify all parts using the labels and the included parts list.
- Frame Construction: Begin by assembling the main frame components (side panels, bottom panel, and fixed shelves) using the designated hardware. Ensure all connections are secure before proceeding.
- Shelf Installation: Insert the adjustable shelf pins into the desired holes within the cabinet sections. Place the adjustable shelves onto these pins.
- Door Attachment: Attach the hinges to the cabinet doors and then to the main frame. The acrylic transparent door panels are pre-installed in the door frames. Door alignment may require minor adjustments to ensure they close smoothly and evenly.
- Handle Installation: Secure the metal handles to the cabinet doors.
- Back Panel: Attach the back panel to the unit, typically using small nails or screws, to enhance stability and enclose the storage areas.
- Wall Mounting: For safety, attach the anti-tip wall mounting hardware to the back of the unit and secure it to a wall stud. This prevents accidental tipping.

7. Maintenance and Care
Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your Galano Isadora TV Stand.
- Cleaning Surfaces: Clean the engineered wood surfaces with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or furniture polish that may damage the PU paper lamination.
- Acrylic Doors: For the acrylic door panels, use a soft, lint-free cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for acrylic or plastic. Avoid glass cleaners containing ammonia, which can damage acrylic.
- Hardware: Periodically check all screws, bolts, and other hardware connections to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain structural integrity.
- Environmental Factors: Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near heat sources, as this can cause discoloration or warping. Protect the surface from excessive moisture.
- Protection: Use coasters or protective pads under hot items, beverages, or objects with sharp edges to prevent damage to the top surface.
8. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your TV stand.
8.1. Assembly Difficulties

- Missing or Damaged Parts: If you find any parts missing or damaged upon unboxing, do not proceed with assembly. Contact Galano customer service immediately for assistance.
8.2. Stability Issues
- Wobbling Unit: Ensure the TV stand is placed on a flat, level surface. Verify that all assembly screws and connections are fully tightened.
