5. Care and Maintenance
Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your console table.
- Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or excessive moisture, as these can damage the finish.
- Spills: Clean spills immediately with a dry cloth to prevent staining or water damage.
- Sunlight: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent fading or discoloration.
- Heat: Do not place hot items directly on the surface. Use coasters or protective pads.
- Inspection: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your console table, refer to the following common solutions:
- Wobbling: Ensure all screws are tightened evenly. Check that the table is placed on a level surface. If the floor is uneven, use furniture pads under the legs to stabilize.
- Doors Not Aligning: Adjust the hinges on the doors. Most furniture hinges allow for minor adjustments to align doors horizontally, vertically, and in depth. Refer to the hinge manufacturer's instructions if specific adjustments are needed.
- Missing Parts: If any parts were missing upon delivery, contact TaoHFE customer service with your purchase details.
- Difficulty Assembling: Review the assembly instructions carefully. Ensure all parts are oriented correctly. Sometimes, parts may appear similar but have subtle differences.
