Safety Information
To prevent injury or damage to the product, adhere to the following safety guidelines:
- Wall Anchoring: Always secure the TV stand to the wall using appropriate wall anchors. This prevents tipping, especially in households with children or pets.
- Weight Capacity: Do not place heavy items on the top shelf or exceed the weight capacity of the shelves. The tabletop has a weight capacity of 110 lbs, and each shelf has a weight capacity of 44 lbs. Overloading can lead to structural failure and injury.
- Level Surface: Ensure the TV stand is placed on a flat, stable, and level surface to prevent wobbling or instability.
- Assembly: Follow all assembly instructions carefully. Do not skip steps or use incorrect hardware.
- Children and Pets: Keep small parts and assembly hardware away from children and pets, as they pose a choking hazard.

Setup and Assembly Instructions
Assembly of the Tangkula Wood TV Stand requires careful attention to the provided diagrams and hardware. It is recommended to have a second person assist with assembly for ease and safety.
- Unpack and Identify Parts: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Lay them out on a clean, soft surface (e.g., a blanket or carpet) to prevent scratches. Identify each part by comparing it to the parts list in the included assembly instructions.
- Prepare Tools: A Phillips head screwdriver is typically required for assembly. Ensure you have the necessary tools before starting.
- Assemble the Frame: Begin by attaching the X-shaped metal frames to the side panels as indicated in the assembly diagrams. Ensure all screws are tightened securely but do not overtighten.
- Attach Shelves: Connect the horizontal shelves to the assembled side frames. Pay close attention to the orientation of each panel, especially the middle support panel, to ensure finished edges face outwards.
- Install Back Panel (if applicable): If a back panel is included, attach it according to the instructions.
- Final Tightening: Once all major components are assembled, gently tighten all screws and fasteners to ensure the stand is stable and rigid.
- Attach Non-slip Foot Pads: Apply the non-slip foot pads to the bottom of the stand's legs to protect your floor and enhance stability.
- Wall Anchoring: For safety, secure the TV stand to a wall using the provided wall anchoring kit. Follow the instructions for your specific wall type.

Operating Instructions
Once assembled, your Tangkula Wood TV Stand is ready for use.
- Television Placement: Place your flat-screen TV (up to 55 inches) centrally on the top surface of the stand. Ensure the TV's base is fully supported and does not overhang the edges. The tabletop supports up to 110 lbs.
- Utilizing Open Shelves: The two open shelves provide ample space for media components such as DVD players, gaming consoles, soundbars, and remote controls. They are also suitable for displaying decorative items, books, or storage bins. Each shelf supports up to 44 lbs.
- Cable Management: Use the pre-drilled cable management hole located on the back panel to route and organize power cords and audio/video cables. This helps maintain a tidy appearance and prevents cable clutter.

Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your TV stand.

- Fasteners: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain stability.
- Environmental Conditions: Avoid placing the TV stand in direct sunlight or near heat sources, which can cause warping or fading. Maintain a stable room temperature and humidity.

- Instability/Wobbling: Ensure the TV stand is on a level surface. Check that all assembly screws and fasteners are fully tightened. Verify that the X-shaped frames are correctly installed.
