2. Safety Information

To prevent serious injury, always follow these safety precautions:

• Anti-Tipping Device: This dresser includes an anti-tipping device. It is crucial to install this device securely to a wall stud to prevent the dresser from tipping over, especially in households with children or pets. Failure to install this device can result in severe injury or death.
• Weight Distribution: Distribute weight evenly across drawers and the tabletop. Avoid placing heavy items on top of the dresser, particularly near the edges.
• Drawer Usage: Do not allow children to climb on or play with the drawers. Only open one drawer at a time to maintain stability.
• Assembly: Ensure all parts are correctly assembled and fasteners are tightened before use. Periodically check and re-tighten fasteners as needed.

Assembly typically requires two adults. Ensure you have a clear, flat workspace. Tools required (not included): Phillips head screwdriver, hammer, and possibly a drill for the anti-tipping device.

2. Assemble the Main Frame: Begin by connecting the side panels to the bottom panel using the provided hardware. Follow the numerical sequence in your detailed assembly guide.
3. Attach Back Panel and Top: Secure the back panel to the frame, ensuring it is square. Then, attach the top panel.
4. Install Drawer Slides: Mount the drawer slides to the interior of the dresser frame according to the instructions. Ensure they are level and aligned.

5. Operating Instructions

The Patikuin 10 Drawer Dresser is designed for straightforward use.

6. Maintenance

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your dresser.

• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish. Dry immediately with a clean cloth.
• Rattan Care: The natural rattan accents can be gently dusted with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment. Avoid excessive moisture.
• Hardware: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten as necessary to maintain structural integrity.
• Sunlight Exposure: Avoid prolonged direct sunlight exposure, which can cause fading or discoloration of the wood finish and rattan.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your dresser, refer to the following common solutions:

• Drawers are Sticking or Not Closing Smoothly:
  - Check if the drawer slides are properly aligned and free of obstructions.
  - Ensure all screws on the drawer slides are tightened.
  - Verify that the drawer is not overloaded or unevenly weighted.
