IMPORTANT NOTES & CAUTIONS/WARNINGS
• Carefully read and follow these instructions for assembly.
• Please handle parts carefully, some parts may be heavy and can
have sharp edges – we recommend possibly using cloth protec-
tive gloves for extra protection.
• To protect the unit and your flooring surface we recommend work-
ing on a padded or carpeted area, you may also use the open box
the unit came in for this purpose.
• For proper construction & integrity/assembly and for TV weight
support and safety, all connections need to be sufficiently tight.
However, do not over-tighten connections to the point of stripping
screw threadings. Parts are designed to fit together tightly, howev-
er, avoid excessive force but rather align & fit panels together
methodically and with patience.
• For some heavy or large units, it may be recommended for 2 peo-
ple to work together on this assembly.
• It is extremely important to attach the BACK PANEL as instructed
within this manual. Such panels are crucial for the stability and
structural support of the unit.
• Please read additional important safety information at the end of
this instruction manual.
•We urge you to keep this manual with your unit for future reference.

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Please carefully read & follow these important safety information notes for proper use of the furniture you have just assembled. They are designed to avoid
unsafe conditions that can result in property damage, bodily injury or death. We therefore urge strict adherence to the following basic principals:
• Install this unit on a flat & level surface only.
• Avoid placing unit in direct sunlight or near heating source. We recommend not placing unit directly against wall but rather leaving a narrow space between
unit and wall for proper ventilation of your A/V equipment.
• Do not exceed the above recommended weight loading limits as this can result in sagging or structural failure of the supporting panel leading to unsafe
conditions.
• TV screen sizes are measured diagonally, therefore, base foot-print size for specific TV’s can not be determined by screen size as they vary from manufac-
turer to manufacturer. Rather you will need to measure the TV’s base foot print and compare it to the top panel surface size of your furniture as listed in this
manual.
• Make sure to place TV within the surface area of the top panel, a bit inward from the front edge and centered. Never use with a TV that is too large. The
TV base foot print surface must be able to sit completely on the top panel surface.
• When choosing locations for stacking A/V components on shelves, make sure to place the heaviest A/V equipment on the lowest possible shelves/bottom
panels first.
• Children should never be allowed to climb on or play with this furniture or/and the TV. This can result in an unsafe situation which may lead to the TV
and/or the furniture itself to become unsteady, slip, tip or fall over. Avoid using higher shelves or the top surface of the TV for objects that may tempt chil-
dren to reach and climb. Such items can include toys, food, as well as remote controls, etc. Proper supervision and common sense is always required.
• W e recommend avoiding bumping into glass with force or dropping or chipping edges etc. Special caution should be given to glass corners, both, for protection of
glass as well as most importantly to avoid the possibility of injuries resulting from strong impacts against corners especially with children. Doors should be opened
& closed gently. (Tempered glass is designed to shatter upon very strong impact and rather than producing sharp knife-like dangerous edges, it turns instead into
small pebble-like pieces.)
• Moving the unit: Do not drag unit when moving, especially not on a carpeted surface or on a rug. It is always recommended instead to lift unit from both
ends with a friend’s help. For the sake of safety and to avoid damages, we recommend you remove the TV and all A/V components prior to moving this
stand. If this is not possible please use much caution and good judgment and seek help to ensure stability and safety as the stand is being moved. Make
sure afterwards to properly re-adjust all equipment, centered and stable as originally instructed above.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The top panel surface (Part #1) is designed to be used with
TV's and other A/V equipment NOT weighing more than 220 lbs.
The loading weight needs to be evenly distributed across top panel and for optimum stability, place TV in a
center position on Top Panel, not unbalanced to the side against edge for example.
Avoid concentration of heavy weight loading, (over 110 lbs.), on a small surface area of less than 311/2" in width.
Also: Note dimensions for Top Panel Surface as listed at the beginning of this manual and read
the following "Important Safety Precautions".
Bottom Wooden Panel (Part #2), is divided into two separate compartments. Each part is designed to be used
with A/V components NOT weighing more than 33 lbs. per side.
Part #6, Adjustable Shelves, are designed to be used with A/V components NOT weighing more than 33 lbs. per shelf.
HOWEVER, for the total unit loading capacity, DO NOT exceed a total of 350 lbs.

each Set Screw aligns with the slot of
the opposite hinge part. Tighten
set screw of G2 to fix hinge.
Doors should open
