4. Setup and Assembly Instructions

Assembly requires two people. Follow the graphical instructions provided with your product for detailed steps. Below are general guidelines:

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging and lay them out on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches.
2. Assemble Frame: Connect the metal frame components using the provided hardware. Ensure all connections are snug but do not overtighten until the entire frame is assembled.
3. Attach Adjustable Feet: Screw the adjustable feet into the bottom of the table legs. These can be adjusted later to level the table on uneven floors.

5. Operating and Usage

The Ikea ÄSPERÖD coffee table is designed for indoor use as a decorative and functional piece in your living room.

• Use the tabletop for placing drinks, books, or decorative items.
• The lower shelf provides additional storage space.
• Avoid placing excessively hot items directly on the glass surface without a coaster.
• Do not stand or sit on the table.

6. Maintenance and Care

To keep your ÄSPERÖD coffee table in optimal condition, follow these care instructions:

• Cleaning the Glass Top: The tempered glass top is stain-resistant and easy to clean. Wipe with a damp cloth and a mild cleaner. Dry with a clean, dry cloth to avoid streaks.
• Cleaning the Metal Frame: Wipe the metal frame with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or chemical solvents as they can damage the finish.
• Regular Checks: Periodically check all assembly fittings and re-tighten them if necessary.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your ÄSPERÖD coffee table, refer to the following common solutions:

• Wobbling Table: If the table wobbles, check that it is on a level surface. Adjust the feet at the bottom of the legs until the table is stable. Ensure all assembly screws are tightened.
• Scratches on Glass: While tempered glass is durable, avoid dragging rough objects across its surface. Use coasters for drinks and protective pads under decorative items.
• Loose Parts: If any parts feel loose, re-tighten the corresponding screws or bolts. Do not overtighten.
