5. Operating Instructions

5.1. Lift-Top Mechanism

The coffee table features a smooth hydraulic lift-top mechanism. To raise the tabletop, gently pull it upwards from the front edge. The mechanism will assist in lifting it to a comfortable height (approximately 24.4 inches). To lower it, apply gentle downward pressure on the tabletop until it fully retracts into its original position. Ensure no objects are obstructing the mechanism during operation.

5.2. Storage Compartments

The table offers three tiers of storage:

  • Hidden Compartment: Located directly beneath the lift-top, this spacious compartment is ideal for storing remote controls, magazines, small electronics, or other items you wish to keep out of sight, maintaining a clutter-free living space.
  • Middle Open Shelf: This shelf provides easy access storage for books, decorative items, or frequently used essentials.
  • Bottom Open Shelf: The lowest shelf offers additional space for larger items, baskets, or further decorative displays.
