Care and Maintenance

Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your end table.

• Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive moisture, as these can damage the wood finish.
• Spills: Immediately wipe up any spills to prevent staining or damage to the wood.
• Heat and Moisture: Avoid placing hot items directly on the surface. Use coasters for drinks to protect against moisture rings.
• Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause the wood finish to fade over time.
• Electrical Components: Ensure the charging station remains dry and free of dust. Do not attempt to clean the electrical outlets with liquids.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues and Solutions:

• Table Wobbles:
  • Ensure all screws are securely tightened.
  • Verify the table is on a level surface. Adjust if necessary.
• Assembly Difficulty (Tightening Bolts):
  • If the provided wrench is difficult to use in recessed areas, consider using a smaller personal wrench or needle-nose pliers for better grip and leverage.
• Charging Station Not Working:
  • Check if the power cord is firmly plugged into both the charging station and the wall outlet.
  • Test the wall outlet with another device to ensure it is functional.
  • Ensure your device's charging cable is not damaged and is properly connected to the charging port.
• Visible Cords:
  • The table has an open back design. To manage visible cords, use cable clips (not included) to secure them along the table legs or consider placing a decorative basket on the lower shelf to conceal them.
