6. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your amseatec office chair, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: The PU leather upholstery is designed for easy cleaning. Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and wipe dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Inspection: Periodically check all screws and bolts for tightness. Retighten as needed to maintain stability and prevent squeaks.
