INSTRUCTION MANUAL
NEW ORDER
SHELVING SYSTEM
By Stefan Diez

New Order is born of 100% industrial production, reflecting
our ambition to create uncompromising and high-precision
quality products. At first glance, the system architecture
is ultra-simple, but on closer acquaintance it proves
quite complex in its multi-purpose versatility. New Order
can be tall or short, wide or narrow, open or closed – or
any combination in between.
New Order’s simple grid lets you build airy, open
compositions or closed constructions with side panels and
folding doors. By adding panels all around you can
achieve a wall-like expression. The functionality
is exceptional, with doors, back panels and side panels that
can be clicked on and off without the use of tools.
Shelving and storing units form the backbone of New Order
Workspace Elements. Attached or detached tables in
different heights for sitting as well as standing enable an
almost infinite number of customized configurations.
INTRODUCTION

CAUTION
With a little care you can prolong the life of your
furniture. Follow the instructions for the materials of your
specific product to make sure that it stays in the best
shape for as long as possible.
The information below is only intended as a
general guideline. For more information on how to
remove specific stains, please inquire where you bought
the furniture.
• Always remove stains quickly before they can do any
permanent damage to the furniture.
• Avoid placing the shelf in direct sunlight or near a
strong heat source to reduce changes. As wood is a
natural material, it will change in colour and will patinate
over time.
• When you move the shelf, make sure to lift it rather
than pulling or pushing it to avoid damaging the floor
and mountings.
• Tighten up the screws after one to two months’ use.
• Avoid improper use such as putting your feet on the
shelf or standing on it.
• Use coasters under damp, hot or coloured objects to
avoid permanent stains.
• Be careful not to scratch or damage the surface with
sharp objects.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE

POWDER COATED ALUMINIUM
• Clean with a clean cloth wrung in water or in a solution
of water and a neutral detergent. Remove soap residue
immediately using a clean, dry cloth.
• Avoid using scouring cream or scouring pads, as they
may scratch the surface.
LACQUERED WOOD
• Clean with a clean cloth wrung in water or in a solution
of water and a neutral detergent. Remove soap residue
immediately using a clean, dry cloth.
• If the surface is scratched or appears matt, use a
care product suited especially for lacquered or stained
wood.
• Avoid using detergents containing silicone, as that
would seal the stain in and make subsequent repairs
more difficult.
• Avoid using scouring cream or scouring pads, as they
may scratch the surface.
UNTREATED WOOD
• Clean with a clean cloth wrung in water or in a solution
of water and a neutral detergent or soap flakes. Remove
soap residue immediately using a clean, dry cloth.
• To remove stains, clean and scrub using a thick
solution of soap flakes that is not allowed to stay on the
wood for more than 2 minutes. Then remove the
remaining soap residue using a damp cloth.
• If the grain of the wood rises after cleaning, gently
sand down the wood using fine-grit sandpaper (No.
220), always going with the grain.
• If the surface is scratched or appears matt, use a care
product suited especially for untreated wood.
