The interior shelves in the cabinet sections are adjustable to accommodate items of various heights. To adjust a shelf:
- Empty the shelf of all contents.
- Carefully lift the shelf and remove the shelf pins from their current holes.
- Insert the shelf pins into the desired new set of holes, ensuring they are level on both sides.
- Place the shelf back onto the pins, ensuring it is securely seated.

The integrated charging station provides convenient power access for small kitchen appliances and mobile devices.
- Power Connection: Ensure the cabinet's power cord (if applicable, typically for the charging station) is plugged into a grounded wall outlet.
