Operating Instructions

Drop Leaf Countertop

The drop leaf countertop can be extended to provide additional workspace or folded down to save space. To extend, gently lift the leaf and pull out the support boards underneath until they lock into place. To fold, push the support boards back in and lower the leaf.

Charging Station

The integrated charging station includes 2 AC outlets, 1 USB port, and 1 Type-C port. Plug the island's power cord into a standard wall outlet. You can then use the outlets and ports to power or charge small kitchen appliances and electronic devices.

• Cabinets with Pull-out Organizers: The two main cabinets feature pull-out shelves for easy access to spices, cookware, or dishes. Gently pull the shelves forward to access contents.
• Trash Can Cabinet: The dedicated pull-out cabinet is designed to hold one 10-gallon trash can or two 5-gallon trash cans, keeping waste out of sight.

Mobility and Locking Wheels

The island is equipped with five caster wheels, two of which are lockable. To move the island, ensure both lockable wheels are disengaged. To keep the island stationary, press down on the locking levers of the two lockable wheels until they click into place.

Maintenance

Cleaning

Wipe the surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid the use of harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or household cleaners, as they may damage the finish of the wood and painted surfaces.

Hardware Check

Hardware may loosen over time with regular use. Periodically check that all connections, including screws, cam locks, and hinges, are tight. Re-tighten as needed to maintain stability and structural integrity.

Troubleshooting

• Island is Wobbly: Ensure all assembly hardware is securely tightened. Check that the island is on a level surface. If wheels are installed, ensure they are properly seated.
• Drawers or Cabinet Doors Stick: Check that drawer slides are properly aligned and free of obstructions. Ensure hinges on cabinet doors are correctly installed and adjusted.
• Charging Station Not Working: Verify that the island's power cord is securely plugged into a functional wall outlet. Check for any tripped circuit breakers.
• Drop Leaf Does Not Stay Up: Ensure the support boards are fully extended and locked into position underneath the leaf. Check hinges for damage or misalignment.
