Solid wood / Real wood veneers
This product has been finished using natrual materials. As a living material, you may notice some
variation in the grain and colour shade between the different components.
Unlike a synthetic or man-made material which has a uniform finish, a feature of natural wood is its
variation in grain and colour. We wish to reassure you that this is quite normal and is not the result of any manufacturing fault.
Where sheets of wood are joined together, a line may be detected. Again, this is normal and is not an
imperfection.
The natural finish should be cared for by the periodic application of a good quality ‘was’ based
domestic furniture polish (Not silicone!!). Occasional / small spills should be removed immediately using a damp cloth.
Do not allow hot articles to come into contact with the surface, as damage will occur!
Care and maintenance
Clean using a damp cloth or a
proprietary domestic furniture polish. Do not use abrasive
cleaners.
This product should not be
discarded
with household waste.
Take to your local authority waste
disposal only.
From time to time check that
there are no loose screws on this unit.
