contact your local hardware store for assistance. Young children can be seriously injured by tipping
furniture. You must install the tipping restraint hardware with the unit to prevent the unit from tipping,
causing any accidents or damage. The tipping restraints are intended only as a deterrent, they are not a
substitute for proper adult supervision. The tipping restraints are not earthquake restraints. If you wish to
add the extra security of earthquake restraints, they must be purchased and installed separately.
38. Connect the fireplace to the power transformer. Follow the operating manual for the electric fireplace
insert to control your fireplace.
Children have died from furniture tip-over.
To reduce the risk of furniture tip-over:
 ALWAYS install tip-over restraint provided.
 FOR use with televisions weighing 80 lbs or less. Use with heavier televisions
may result in instability causing tip-over resulting in death or serious injury.
 NEVER allow children to stand, climb or hang on drawers, doors, or shelves.
 NEVER open more than one drawer at a time.
 Place heaviest items in the lowest drawers.
Use of tip-over restraints may only reduce, but not eliminate, the risk of
tip-over.
WARNING

Care and Maintenance
 Use a soft, clean cloth that will not scratch the surface when dusting.
 Use of furniture polishes is not necessary. Should you choose to use polishes, test first in an inconspicuous area.
 Using solvents of any kind on your furniture may damage the finish.
 Never use water to clean your furniture as it may cause damage to the finish.
 Always use coasters under beverage glasses and flowerpots.
 Liquid spills should be removed immediately. Using a soft, clean cloth, blot the spill gently. Avoid rubbing.
 Always use protective pads under hot dishes and plates. Heat can cause chemical changes that may create
spotting within the furniture finish.
 Stains or marks from crayons or ink markers will be difficult to remove.
 In the event that your furniture is stained or otherwise damaged during use, we recommend that you call a
professional to repair your furniture.
 Check bolts/screws periodically and tighten them if necessary.
WARNING
Please use your furniture correctly and safely. Improper use can cause safety hazards, or damage to
your furniture or household items. Carefully read the following safety information.
This unit is not intended for use with CRT TVs. The top surface maximum weight capacity is 80 lbs. (36.3 kg) and
maximum load 70 in. (177.8 cm) diagonal flat-panel TV. The shelf maximum recommended weight
allowance is 50 lbs. (22.7 kg). Use with heavier televisions may result in instability causing tip over resulting
in death or serious injury.
Death or serious injury may occur when children climb on audio and/or video equipment furniture. A remote
control or toys placed on the furnishing may encourage a child to climb on the furnishing and as a result may
tip over onto the child.
NEVER allow children to climb or play with the TV or furnishing supporting the TV.
NEVER place toys, food, remote, etc. on top of the TV or TV furnishing.
ALWAYS use either the safety hardware as instructed or other wall anchoring device.
Relocating audio and/or video equipment to furniture not specifically designed to support audio and/or video
equipment may result in death or serious injury due to furniture collapse or over turning onto a child.
NEVER place a TV on furniture that is not intended to support a TV.
NEVER exceed the maximum size and weight of the TV shown in the instructions.
Be sure to refer to the TV warning label as shown in the instructions.
Overloading drawers and shelves may result in furniture that can break or sag, or tip-over which may result in
injury.
NEVER exceed the weight limits shown in the instructions.
Place the heavier items on lower shelves as far back from the front as possible.
Load the bottom surfaces first to avoid top-heavy furniture.
Moving furniture that is not designed to be moved or equipped with casters may result in injury or damage to
furnishings or personal property.
ALWAYS unload shelves and drawers, starting with the top surfaces, before moving.
NEVER push or pull furniture on carpet. Have a friend help lift properly to move and/or reposition it.
The stand is not meant as a seat and no one should be sitting or standing on the stand.
Clean the metal trim using a soft cloth, slightly dampened with citrus oil-based product and buff with a clean
soft cloth. DO NOT use brass polish or household cleaners as these products will damage the metal trim. Citrus
oil-based products can be obtained at supermarkets or hardware stores.
