Introduction
Thank you for choosing the MEUBLE COSY WHALEN 160 Extensible Dining Table. This manual provides essential information for the safe assembly, operation, and maintenance of your new dining table. Please read these instructions carefully before use and retain them for future reference.

Safety Warnings
- Always use both hands when extending or retracting the table to ensure smooth operation and prevent injury.
- Do not exceed the recommended maximum weight of 100 kg (220 lbs) on the tabletop.
- For enhanced stability, consider securing the table to a wall or floor, especially if children are present, to prevent accidental tipping.
- Keep fingers and other body parts clear of moving parts during assembly and when adjusting the table's extension mechanism.
- Ensure all screws and fasteners are tightened securely before use. Periodically check and re-tighten as necessary.
- Avoid placing hot items directly on the table surface. Use coasters or protective mats.
Setup and Assembly
The MEUBLE COSY WHALEN 160 table is designed for straightforward assembly. It comes with numbered parts and easy-to-follow instructions. We recommend assembling the table with two people.
Required Tools (Not Included):
- Phillips head screwdriver
- Allen wrench (usually included with hardware)
Assembly Steps:
- Unpack all components and verify against the parts list provided in the packaging. Place all parts on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches.
- Attach the table legs to the main tabletop frame using the provided screws and Allen wrench. Ensure the tapered steel legs are oriented correctly.
- Secure the extension mechanism components to the underside of the tabletop, following the numbered diagrams.
- Carefully attach the extensible leaves to the main tabletop, ensuring they slide smoothly into place.
- Tighten all fasteners. Do not overtighten.
- Place the adjustable rubber pads on the bottom of each leg to protect your floor and ensure stability.


Operating Instructions
Extending the Table:
- Ensure there is sufficient space around the table for extension.
- Gently pull the two halves of the tabletop apart from the center. Use both hands to ensure even movement.
- Locate the extension leaf(s) stored within or separately.
- Carefully place the extension leaf(s) into the gap created. Ensure they are properly aligned with the main tabletop.
- Push the two halves of the tabletop back together until they are flush with the extension leaf(s) and securely locked.
Retracting the Table:
- Reverse the extension process. Unlock the tabletop halves if necessary.
- Gently pull the tabletop halves apart to create a gap.
- Remove the extension leaf(s) and store them safely.
- Push the two main tabletop halves back together until they meet and are securely locked.


Maintenance
Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your MEUBLE COSY dining table.
- Cleaning: Wipe the table surface with a damp cloth and a mild, neutral detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or solvents, as these can damage the finish. Dry immediately with a clean, soft cloth.
- Spills: Clean up spills immediately to prevent staining or damage to the MDF surface.
- Protection: Use placemats, coasters, and trivets to protect the tabletop from heat, moisture, and scratches.
- Legs: Periodically check the tightness of all leg fasteners and re-tighten if necessary. Ensure the rubber pads on the feet are intact to protect your floor.
- Sunlight: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading or discoloration over time.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your dining table, please refer to the following common solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Table is wobbly | Uneven floor; loose leg fasteners | Adjust the leveling pads on the bottom of the legs. Check and tighten all leg screws. |
| Extension mechanism is stiff | Dust/debris in tracks; misalignment | Clean the extension tracks. Ensure the leaves are aligned correctly before pushing together. Apply a silicone-based lubricant if necessary (avoid oil-based). |
| Scratches on floor | Missing or worn leg pads | Ensure all legs have their protective rubber pads. Replace worn pads if needed. |
| Tabletop discoloration | Prolonged sun exposure; harsh cleaners | Relocate the table away from direct sunlight. Use only mild, neutral detergents for cleaning. |
