KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
If the glass is chipped or broken, stop using the product and consult the manufacturer or supplier.
1) Do not place very hot or very cold items on the glass surface unless adequately thick tablemats
are used to prevent such items from coming into contact with the glass.
2) Do not sit or stand upon the glass surface.
3) Do not use the glass as a chopping surface. Do not strike the glass with hard or pointed items.
4) When cleaning glass panel use a damp cloth or leather with washing up liquid or soft soap if
necessary; do not use washing powders or any other substances containing abrasive since
these substances scratch glass.
Care and Maintenance
Use a soft, clean cloth that will not scratch the surface when dusting.
Use of furniture polish is not necessary. Should you choose to use polish, 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.
Further advice about wood furniture care
It is best to keep your furniture in a climate-controlled environment. Extreme temperature and humidity
changes can cause fading, warping, shrinking and splitting of wood. It is advised to keep furniture away from
direct sunlight as sun may damage the finish.
Proper care and cleaning at home will extend the life of your purchase. Following these important and helpful
tips will enhance your furniture as it ages.
A Touch-up Pen has been provided to repair any small nicks or scratches that may occur during
assembly or shipping.
We hope you enjoy your purchase for many years.
Thank you for purchasing!
