Operating Instructions

Lift-Top Mechanism

The coffee table features a high-quality metal gas lift mechanism for smooth operation.

1. To Lift: Gently pull the front edge of the tabletop upwards. The gas lift mechanism will assist in raising the tabletop smoothly and quietly to a comfortable height for working or dining.
2. To Lower: Apply gentle downward pressure on the tabletop. The mechanism will slowly and safely lower the tabletop back into its original coffee table position. Ensure hands and fingers are clear of the mechanism during operation.

Storage Access

• Hidden Compartment: When the tabletop is lifted, a spacious hidden compartment is revealed, ideal for storing laptops, remote controls, books, or other items you wish to keep out of sight.
• Bottom Open Shelf: The lower shelf provides additional open storage space for decorative items, magazines, or storage bins.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish.
• Spills: Clean up spills immediately to prevent staining, especially on the rustic oak finish.
• Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary.
• Avoid Excessive Moisture: Do not place hot items directly on the surface without protection. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
• Sunlight Exposure: Avoid direct and prolonged exposure to sunlight to prevent fading or discoloration of the wood finish.

Troubleshooting

• Table is wobbly: Ensure all screws and bolts are securely tightened. Check that the table is on a level surface.
• Lift mechanism is stiff or uneven: Ensure all components of the lift mechanism are correctly installed and free from obstructions. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
• Missing parts: If any parts were missing upon delivery, please contact CAPHAUS customer support with your purchase details.
• Scratches or damage: For minor cosmetic damage, touch-up pens or furniture repair kits matching the rustic oak finish may be used. For significant damage, contact customer support.
