This product has been produced
from natural timber; you may
notice some variation in the grain
and colour of different component
parts which is normal for furniture
produced using natural wood and
is not the result of any
manufacturing fault.
The product has been treated
with a wax and oil finish to
prevent dirt ingress and preserve
moisture.
On unpacking the
furniture you may notice an
odour due to this treatment;
this will disappear once the
furniture is unpacked and
assembled after a period of time.
This process may leave some
staining on the packaging
material; please take care to
ensure this does not transfer
to clothing or carpeted surfaces
during assembly.
Care and maintenance
Use an appropriate furniture
polish for natural wood
furniture and a dry cloth to
clean the product.
Avoid placing the furniture in
direct sunlight as this will cause
the timber to prematurely age.
From time to time check
that there are no loose
screws on this unit.
This product should not be
discarded with household
waste. Take to your local
authority waste disposal
centre.
