2. Identify Shelf Supports: Locate the pre-drilled holes or existing shelf supports within your Composad cabinet.
3. Insert Shelf Supports: Insert the shelf supports (if provided separately with the cabinet) into the desired holes at the chosen height. Ensure supports are level and securely placed on both sides of the cabinet.
4. Place Shelves: Carefully place the Composad SYSTEMA shelves onto the installed supports. Ensure they sit flush and are stable.
5. Check Stability: Gently test the stability of the installed shelves before placing items on them.

Important: Always refer to the specific assembly instructions provided with your Composad cabinet for detailed steps and diagrams.

5. Operating and Usage

Once installed, the shelves provide additional storage space within your cabinet. To ensure longevity and safety:

• Distribute Weight Evenly: Always place items on the shelves so that the weight is distributed uniformly across the surface.
• Do Not Overload: Adhere to the maximum weight capacity specified for your cabinet and shelves. Overloading can cause damage or instability.
• Avoid Direct Contact: Do not place hot or wet items directly on the shelf surface without adequate protection, as this may cause damage or discoloration.

6. Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and integrity of your Composad shelves, follow these simple care guidelines:

• Cleaning: Clean the shelf surfaces with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
• Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or solvents, as these can damage the finish.
• Wipe Spills Immediately: Promptly wipe away any liquid spills to prevent staining or material damage.
• Environmental Conditions: Keep the shelves away from direct sunlight, excessive humidity, and extreme temperature changes to prevent warping or fading.

7. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Composad SYSTEMA shelves.

• Issue: Shelves are not level.
  Solution: Check that the shelf supports are inserted correctly and at the same height on both sides of the cabinet. Adjust as necessary.
• Issue: Shelves feel unstable.
  Solution: Ensure all components are properly assembled according to the cabinet's instructions. Verify that the cabinet itself is stable and, if applicable, securely fastened to the wall. Ensure weight is evenly distributed.
• Issue: Visible damage during assembly.
