5. Operating Instructions / Usage

Organizing Your Wardrobe

The wardrobe is designed with multiple cube compartments and a dedicated hanging area to help you classify and organize your clothing efficiently. Utilize the shelves for folded items such as sweaters, bedding, shoes, or accessories. The hanging rod is ideal for coats, dresses, and other garments that require hanging to prevent wrinkles.

Magnetic Doors

Each door panel is equipped with a magnetic closure mechanism to ensure a firm and secure seal, protecting your stored items from dust. Doors can be opened individually. For wider access, connecting buckles allow two adjacent doors to be opened simultaneously.

Weight Capacity Guidelines

Adhere to the following weight limits to maintain the structural integrity and safety of the wardrobe:

• Total Weight Capacity: 265 lbs
• Each Shelf Capacity: 22 lbs
• Hanging Rod Capacity: 44 lbs

The top surface of the wardrobe can also be used for storage, supporting up to 88 lbs, suitable for items like empty suitcases or duffle bags.

6. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your HOMCOM Portable Wardrobe Closet, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe all surfaces with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools, as these can damage the plastic finish.
• Dusting: Regularly dust the wardrobe with a dry, soft cloth to prevent dust buildup.
• Inspection: Periodically check all connections and buckles to ensure they remain secure. Re-fasten any loose parts as needed.
• Storage: If you need to store the wardrobe, it can be quickly disassembled and folded into a compact size. Store it in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your wardrobe, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

• Unit feels unstable: Ensure that the cabinet frame is fully unfolded and all sections are securely clicked into place. Verify that the wardrobe is placed on a flat, level, and stable surface. If instability persists, ensure the anti-tipping hardware is correctly installed and utilized.
• Doors not closing properly: Check for any items obstructing the door's path or the magnetic latches. Ensure the door panels are correctly buckled into the frame and that the magnetic closures are aligned. Gently re-adjust the door panels if necessary.
• Difficulty folding/unfolding: Ensure no items are inside the compartments or obstructing the folding mechanism. Apply gentle, even pressure when folding or unfolding. Do not force the mechanism.
• Excessive weight on shelves/rod: If shelves or the hanging rod appear to sag, reduce the load immediately. Refer to the weight capacity guidelines in Section 5.
