4. Assembly Instructions

Assembly is required for this product. Please follow these steps carefully. It is recommended to have two people for assembly.

1. Unpack and Verify: Carefully unpack all components and hardware. Refer to the parts list (usually included in the packaging) to ensure all pieces are present and undamaged.
2. Prepare Workspace: Assemble the dresser on a clean, flat, and soft surface (e.g., a rug or cardboard) to prevent scratching.
3. Assemble Frame: Follow the detailed diagrams in your specific assembly guide to connect the side panels, back panel, and top/bottom panels to form the main frame. Ensure all cam locks and screws are tightened.
4. Install Drawer Runners: Attach the metal drawer runners to the inside of the dresser frame according to the instructions. Ensure they are level and aligned.
5. Assemble Drawers: Construct each of the seven drawers. Attach the drawer sides, front, and back, then slide in the bottom panel. Secure with fasteners.
6. Attach Handles: Secure the metal handles to the front of each assembled drawer.
7. Insert Drawers: Carefully slide each assembled drawer onto its respective runners within the dresser frame.
8. Install Anti-Tip Kit: This is a critical step. Attach the anti-tip bracket to the top rear of the dresser and secure the strap to a wall stud using appropriate wall anchors and screws. Ensure the dresser is stable and cannot tip forward.

If you encounter any difficulties during assembly, refer to the detailed diagrams provided in the product packaging or contact customer support.

5. Operating Instructions

Using your Artiss dresser is straightforward. Follow these guidelines for optimal performance and safety.

• Opening Drawers: Gently pull the metal handles to open the drawers. The anti-rust coated metal runners ensure smooth operation.
• Closing Drawers: Push the drawers firmly until they are fully closed and flush with the dresser frame.
• Weight Distribution: Distribute items evenly within the drawers. Place heavier items in the bottom drawers to enhance stability and prevent tipping.
• Single Drawer Rule: For safety, open only one drawer at a time. Opening multiple drawers simultaneously can destabilize the dresser and increase the risk of tip-over.

6. Maintenance

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

• Cleaning: The paper veneer finish makes the dresser easy to clean. Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
• Spills: Wipe up spills immediately to prevent moisture damage.
• Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws, bolts, and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain structural integrity.
• Drawer Runners: If drawer operation becomes less smooth, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the runners.
• Sunlight Exposure: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading or discoloration of the finish.

7. Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Drawers not closing smoothly:
  • Check if the drawer runners are properly aligned and free of obstructions.
  • Ensure the drawer is not overloaded or unevenly weighted.
  • Verify that all assembly screws for the drawer and runners are tight.
• Dresser feels wobbly:
  • Ensure all assembly fasteners are securely tightened.
  • Verify the dresser is on a level surface. Adjust furniture glides if necessary.
  • Confirm the anti-tip kit is properly installed and secured to a wall stud.
• Minor scratches or marks on finish:
  • For minor imperfections, a furniture repair pen or touch-up paint matching the black finish may be used.
