6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the cabinet surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the engineered wood finish.
• Dusting: Regularly dust the cabinet to maintain its appearance.
• Spills: Clean up spills immediately to prevent staining or damage to the wood.
• Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they remain tight. Tighten if necessary.

7. Troubleshooting

7.1 Doors Not Aligning Properly

If the cabinet doors do not close seamlessly or appear misaligned after assembly:

• Check Hinges: Ensure all hinges are securely fastened to both the door and the cabinet frame.
• Adjust Hinges: Most cabinet hinges have adjustment screws that allow for minor vertical, horizontal, and depth adjustments. Refer to your assembly guide for specific instructions on adjusting the hinges. Make small adjustments and test the door closure until alignment is satisfactory.
• Level Surface: Ensure the cabinet is placed on a level surface. An uneven floor can cause the cabinet frame to twist slightly, affecting door alignment. Use shims if necessary to level the cabinet.
