Important Safety Warnings
Serious or fatal injury may occur from unexpected assembly or use. During the assembly process, keep all parts away from babies or children. Always securely fix this product to the wall, ensuring the wall area to be drilled is free from hidden electrical wires, water, and gas pipes. The use of tip-over restraints may only reduce, but not eliminate, the risk of tip-over. Unless specially designed to accommodate, do not set heavy objects on top of this product. Place the heaviest items on the lowest shelf. Never allow children to climb or bang on drawers, doors, or shelves.
