5. Operating Instructions
5.1. Foldable Countertop
The kitchen island features a versatile rubberwood countertop with a foldable extension. To extend the countertop, gently lift the foldable section and secure it in place using the support mechanism. To fold it back, release the support and carefully lower the section until it rests flush with the main countertop. This allows for flexible use, expanding your workspace when needed and saving space when not in use.

The island is equipped with a charging station featuring two AC outlets (220-250 V, 50/60 Hz), one USB port (5 V, 2.1 A), and one USB-C port. The power cable is 1.5 meters long. To use, simply plug the island's power cable into a wall outlet. You can then connect your small kitchen appliances, mobile devices, or other electronics directly to the integrated ports.
