4. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your Fjords Admiral R recliner.

4.1 Leather Care

• Cleaning: For general cleaning, wipe the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth.
• Spot Cleaning: For spills or stains, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for the type of leather on your chair. Always test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. Follow the cleaner's instructions carefully.
• Avoid: Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive water, as these can damage the leather. Keep the chair away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent drying and cracking.

4.2 Wood Base Care

• Wipe the laminated rubberwood base with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust.
• For deeper cleaning, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed immediately by a dry cloth.
• Avoid using silicone-based polishes or abrasive cleaners on the wood.

4.3 General Maintenance

• Periodically check all connections and fasteners to ensure they are secure. Tighten if necessary.
• Avoid placing heavy or sharp objects on the chair or ottoman that could cause damage.
