Setup and Assembly
Assembly is required for this product. It is recommended to have two people for assembly. Please follow the steps below carefully.
- Unpack and Identify Parts: Lay out all components on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches. Compare each part with the provided parts list in the separate assembly guide.
- Assemble the Main Frame: Connect the side panels to the base and top panels using the designated hardware. Ensure all connections are secure.
- Install Interior Shelves: Insert the fixed shelves into their designated slots. For adjustable shelves, determine desired height and insert shelf pins into the corresponding holes.
- Attach Doors: Secure the hinges to the cabinet frame and the doors. Mount the doors to the cabinet, ensuring they align properly and open/close smoothly.
- Install Door Shelves/Racks: Attach the smaller shelves and retaining bars to the interior of the doors.
- Attach Handles and Magnetic Catches: Install the door handles and magnetic catches to ensure the doors close securely.
- Install Anti-Tip Kit: Secure the anti-tip straps to the back of the cabinet and then to a wall stud using appropriate wall anchors (not always included, depending on wall type). This step is crucial for safety.
Operating Instructions
- Opening and Closing Doors: Gently pull the handles to open the doors. Push the doors firmly until the magnetic catches engage to ensure they remain closed.
- Adjusting Shelves: To adjust the height of an interior shelf, remove all items from the shelf. Carefully lift the shelf and remove the shelf pins. Reinsert the pins into the desired set of holes and place the shelf back on the pins. Ensure the shelf is level and stable before placing items on it.
- Loading Items: Distribute weight evenly across shelves. Place heavier items on lower shelves to maintain stability. Utilize the door shelves for smaller, lighter items like spice jars or small bottles, ensuring they do not interfere with door closure.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish. Dry immediately with a clean cloth.
- Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain stability.
- Anti-Tip Kit: Regularly inspect the anti-tip straps and wall anchors for any signs of wear or loosening. Ensure the cabinet remains securely attached to the wall.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Cabinet is wobbly. | Loose fasteners; uneven floor; not secured to wall. | Ensure all assembly screws are tightened. Place shims under the base if the floor is uneven. Secure the cabinet to the wall using the anti-tip kit. |
| Doors do not close properly or stay closed. | Misaligned hinges; magnetic catches not engaging; items on door shelves obstructing closure. | Adjust hinges for proper alignment. Ensure magnetic catches are correctly installed and functional. Rearrange items on door shelves to prevent obstruction. |
