- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging and lay them out on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches.
- Attach Armrests to Seat Cushion: Align the armrests with the pre-drilled holes on the underside of the seat cushion. Insert the screws and hand-tighten them partially. Do not fully tighten yet.
- Attach Backrest to Seat Cushion: Align the backrest with the corresponding holes on the rear of the seat cushion and the armrests. Insert the screws and hand-tighten them partially. It is crucial to leave all screws loose at this stage to allow for adjustment and proper alignment.
- Attach Chair Frame/Legs: Position the chair frame/legs assembly under the seat cushion, aligning the holes. Insert the remaining screws and hand-tighten them partially.

6. Maintenance and Care
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your CLATINA Guest Chair.
- Cleaning: The chair's surface is covered with PU leather, which is waterproof and easy to clean. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dust and stains.

- Inspection: Periodically inspect all screws and connections for tightness. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the PU leather to fade or crack.
- Weight Limit: Adhere strictly to the 500 lb. weight limit to prevent structural damage.
