6. Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Maupvit Rattan Tall Narrow Storage Cabinet.

- Spills: Clean spills immediately with a dry cloth to prevent moisture absorption and staining.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading or drying of the wood and rattan.
- Check Fasteners: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary, but do not overtighten.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues during assembly or use, please refer to the following common solutions:
- Missing Parts: If any parts or hardware are missing from your package, do not proceed with assembly. Contact Maupvit customer support immediately for replacement parts. Refer to the parts list in your manual to identify the exact missing components.
- Assembly Difficulties:
- Parts don't align: Double-check the orientation of each panel against the diagrams in your instruction manual. Sometimes panels may appear similar but have specific orientations.
- Screws won't tighten/strip: Ensure you are using the correct screw for the designated hole. Avoid using power drills for cam bolts and screws; hand-tighten to prevent damage to the engineered wood.
- Cabinet is wobbly: Ensure all fasteners are securely tightened. Verify that the cabinet is placed on a level surface. The anti-tipping device, when properly installed, significantly enhances stability.
- Drawer or Door Malfunction:
- Drawer sticks or doesn't slide smoothly: Check that the drawer slides are installed correctly and are aligned on both the drawer and the cabinet frame. Ensure no debris is obstructing the tracks.
- Cabinet door doesn't close properly: Adjust the hinges. Most hinges allow for minor adjustments to align the door.
