The SEDETA Lift Top Coffee Table offers versatile functionality with its adjustable tabletop and integrated storage.

5.1. Lift Top Mechanism

To raise the tabletop:

1. Grasp the edge of the tabletop firmly.
2. Gently lift the tabletop upwards. The high-quality hydraulic lifter will assist in a smooth and quiet motion.
3. Continue lifting until the tabletop reaches its desired height (up to 25.4 inches). The mechanism will lock into place.

To lower the tabletop:

1. Grasp the edge of the tabletop firmly.
2. Gently push the tabletop downwards. The hydraulic lifter will provide resistance for a controlled descent.
3. Ensure the tabletop is fully lowered before leaving unattended.

Caution: Keep hands and fingers clear of the scissor mechanism during lifting and lowering to prevent pinching.

5.2. Storage Compartments

The coffee table includes both hidden and open storage options:

• Hidden Storage: Located directly beneath the lift-top, this compartment is ideal for storing items like pillows, blankets, laptops, books, or board games, keeping them out of sight and dust-free.
• Open Storage with Sliding Doors: The table features four open compartments with two sliding barn doors. These doors can be moved to cover any two compartments at a time, allowing for flexible display and concealment.
• Adjustable Shelves: The shelves within the open compartments are removable and adjustable to 3 different heights, allowing you to customize the storage space to fit various items.

6. Maintenance

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your coffee table.

• Cleaning: Wipe the table surface and frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or excessive moisture.
• Spills: Promptly wipe up any spills to prevent staining, especially on the tabletop which is designed to be waterproof and scratch-resistant.
• Fasteners: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as necessary to maintain stability.
• Sunlight & Heat: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme heat sources, as this can cause fading or warping of the wood finish.
• Moving: When moving the table, lift it rather than dragging it to prevent damage to the legs and floor.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your coffee table, refer to the following common solutions:

• Table Wobbles: Ensure the table is placed on a level surface. Check and tighten all assembly screws and bolts.
• Lift Top Sticking/Uneven: Verify that no objects are obstructing the lift mechanism or the hidden storage compartment. Ensure all lift mechanism components are correctly installed and tightened. Apply a silicone-based lubricant to moving parts if necessary (avoid oil-based lubricants).
• Sliding Doors Sticking: Check the sliding tracks for any debris or obstructions. Ensure the doors are properly seated on the tracks.
• Scratches/Minor Damage: For minor scratches, a furniture repair marker or wood filler matching the grey finish can be used.
