Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will extend the life and appearance of your sideboard.

• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish. Dry immediately with a clean cloth.
• Spills: Clean up spills immediately to prevent staining or water damage.
• Heat and Moisture: Avoid placing hot items directly on the surface. Use coasters or protective pads. Protect from excessive moisture and direct sunlight.
• Hardware: Periodically check and tighten all hardware to ensure stability.
• Moving: When moving the cabinet, lift it rather than dragging to prevent damage to the base and floor.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your HOSTACK sideboard, refer to the following common solutions:

• Chemical Odor: A new furniture item may have a slight chemical odor upon unpacking. This is typically due to manufacturing processes and usually dissipates over time. Ensure good ventilation in the room by opening windows and doors. The odor should diminish within a few days to a week.
• Doors Not Closing Properly:
  • Check if the cabinet is level. Uneven surfaces can cause doors to misalign. Adjust the feet or place shims if necessary.
  • Inspect the hinges for proper installation and tightness. Adjust hinges if they are loose or misaligned.
  • Ensure the magnetic latches (if applicable) are correctly positioned and securely attached to both the door and the cabinet frame.
• Drawers Sticking or Not Sliding Smoothly:
  • Verify that the drawer slides are installed correctly and are free of obstructions.
  • Check for any loose screws on the drawer slides or the drawer box itself.
  • Ensure the drawer is not overloaded, exceeding its weight capacity.
• Wobbling or Instability:
  • Confirm that all assembly hardware is securely tightened.
  • Ensure the cabinet is placed on a flat, level surface.
  • Verify that the anti-tipping hardware is correctly installed and anchored to the wall.
