5. Operating Instructions: Extending and Retracting the Table Leaf
Your dining table features a removable leaf to adjust its length from 42 inches (round) to 57.7 inches (oval).

- Insert the 15.7-inch removable leaf into the gap created in the center of the table.
- Push the two tabletop halves back together until they are flush with the leaf and securely locked.

6. Maintenance
6.1 Wood Surfaces (Table)
- Wipe regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Dry immediately with a clean, dry cloth.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or polishes that contain silicone.

- Use coasters and placemats to protect the surface from spills and heat.
6.2 Upholstered Chairs
- Vacuum regularly with an upholstery attachment to remove dust and debris.
- Spot clean spills immediately with a clean, damp cloth and mild soap. Blot, do not rub.
- Allow to air dry completely.

7. Troubleshooting
7.1 Table or Chair is Wobbly
- Solution: Check all bolts and screws. Tighten any loose fasteners. Ensure the furniture is on a level surface.
7.2 Table Leaf Does Not Fit Properly
- Solution: Ensure the table halves are pulled apart evenly and fully before inserting the leaf. Verify the leaf is oriented correctly. If the issue persists, check for any obstructions in the sliding mechanism.
