3. Setup and Placement

This product is a table top and does not include a base or frame. It is designed to be placed on a suitable existing table frame.

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the glass table top from its packaging. Inspect for any signs of damage. If damaged, do not proceed with placement and contact customer support.
2. Prepare the Frame: Ensure your table frame is clean, level, and free from any debris that could scratch the glass or cause instability.
3. Leveling: Use a spirit level (not included) to confirm that your table frame is perfectly level. An uneven surface can cause stress on the glass.
4. Placement: With assistance, carefully lift and place the glass table top onto the prepared frame. Ensure it is centered and sits securely without wobbling.

4. Usage Guidelines

The vidaXL Transparent Tempered Glass Table Top is versatile and can be used in various indoor settings:

• Dining Surfaces: Ideal for dining tables, providing a durable and easy-to-clean surface.
• Work or Study Desks: Suitable for home office or study areas, offering a smooth workspace.

5. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your tempered glass table top.

• Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth. For smudges or fingerprints, use a glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or damage the glass surface.
• Spills: Clean spills immediately to prevent residue buildup.
• Protection: While tempered glass is strong, using coasters for drinks and placemats for hot dishes is recommended to further protect the surface and prevent water rings or heat damage.
• Avoid Impact: Do not drop heavy objects onto the glass surface or strike its edges, as this can cause chipping or breakage.

6. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common concerns you might encounter with your glass table top.

• Instability/Wobbling:
  Cause: The supporting table frame may not be level, or the glass top is not centered correctly.
  Solution: Ensure the table frame is on a flat surface and use a spirit level to adjust its feet if necessary. Re-center the glass top carefully.
• Scratches:
  Cause: Abrasive materials or sharp objects have come into contact with the glass.
  Solution: Tempered glass is scratch-resistant but not scratch-proof. Minor surface scratches may be reduced with specialized glass polishing kits, but deep scratches are permanent. Always use protective mats or coasters.
• Greenish Tint:
  Cause: This is a natural characteristic of standard tempered glass due to its iron content.
  Solution: This is not a defect but an inherent property of the material. It is more noticeable on thicker glass or at the edges.
• Breakage:
  Cause: Severe impact, extreme temperature changes, or excessive weight.
  Solution: Tempered glass breaks into small, relatively harmless pieces. If breakage occurs, carefully clear the area and dispose of the glass safely. This product is not designed to withstand heavy impacts.
