Operating Instructions

Height Adjustment

Your electric standing desk features a smooth and quiet height adjustment mechanism, allowing you to transition between sitting and standing positions.

• Adjusting Height: Use the up and down arrows on the hand control unit to raise or lower the desk. The desk can be adjusted from a minimum height of 27.9 inches to a maximum height of 45.7 inches (excluding desktop thickness).
• Memory Presets: The hand control unit includes two memory buttons. To set a preferred height, adjust the desk to the desired level, then press and hold one of the memory buttons (e.g., '1' or '2') until the display flashes or a beep is heard. The desk will now move to this preset height with a single press.
• Quiet Operation: The lifting process operates quietly, with noise levels below 50 dB, ensuring minimal disruption to your work environment.
