2. Assembling the Base Units
Begin by assembling the two base units (pedestals) that support the desktop. Each unit typically involves attaching side panels to a bottom panel and then securing the top frame for the drawers and cabinet. Pay attention to the orientation of panels with pre-drilled holes for drawer slides or hinges.

4. Attaching the Desktop
Carefully place the main desktop panel onto the assembled base units. Align the pre-drilled holes and secure the desktop using the provided screws. Ensure the desk is stable and level before proceeding.

Maintenance
1. Cleaning
Regularly wipe the desk surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For spills, clean immediately with a mild soap solution and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the laminated finish.
2. General Care
- Avoid placing hot items directly on the desktop; use coasters or protective pads.
- Do not drag heavy objects across the surface to prevent scratches.
- Periodically check and tighten all screws to maintain stability.
- Keep the desk away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture to prevent material degradation.
Troubleshooting
1. Desk Wobbles
If the desk feels unstable, ensure it is placed on a level surface. Check all assembly screws and tighten them if necessary. Uneven flooring can be compensated for by placing shims under the desk legs.
2. Drawers Stick or Don't Close Properly
Verify that the drawer slides are correctly installed and aligned. Ensure no objects are obstructing the drawer's path. If the issue persists, check if any screws on the slides or drawer boxes are loose.
3. Power Outlet Not Working
Ensure the desk's main power cord is securely plugged into a functional wall outlet. Check the on/off switch on the power strip to ensure it is in the "on" position. If the issue continues, try plugging another device into the wall outlet to confirm the outlet is working. If the power strip itself is faulty, contact customer support.
