FINE TUNING YOUR NEW BDI MIRAGE HOME THEATER FURNITURE

These steps are to be followed after you have unpackaged and completed the simple assembly
instructions for your Mirage AV stand. Due to jostling in freight or perhaps an uneven floor, the doors on
your Mirage stand may not appear to be in perfect alignment. Making a few minor adjustments can rectify
this situation. Be aware that depending on your situation, patience and a bit of trial and error are required.
The high-quality European hinge hardware is infinitely adjustable, but changing one element can cause the
need for further adjustments. Through a little adjustment, you can modify the orientation of the cabinet
doors to make sure that they are sitting perfectly on your Mirage unit.

STEP 1 - Level your Mirage unit

Levelers are integrated into each leg assembly and are accessed from inside the cabinet. If your floor is
uneven, you may extend one or more levelers (with the provided Allen Wrench) to attain a level, stable
cabinet placement. Turning the leveler clockwise will extend the leveler; turning it counter-clockwise will
retract it.

INCORRECT!

Door is out of
alignment with
the rest of the
unit.

CORRECT!

Door is sitting
squarely and
evenly spaced on
tops and sides.

STEP 2 - Adjust Door Hinges (if needed)

If the cabinet’s door appears out of alignment, this can be corrected with
minor adjustment on each door.

Because these hinges are infinitely adjustable, adjusting one hinge element
can sometimes cause the need for adjustments to other elements. But with
a few adjustments, you can modify the orientation of the cabinet door to
make sure that it hangs evenly.

Use a Phillips screwdriver to adjust cabinet’s door hinges:

• By adjusting Screw 1, the door will move LEFT or RIGHT within the

frame. Make minor adjustments at both top and bottom hinges for
best results.

• By adjusting Screw(s) 2, the door will move UP or DOWN within

the frame (the top and bottom hinges must be adjusted the same

degree).
NOTE: Loosen Screws 2 one complete turn, raise or lower door, then hold
in position while tightening Screws 2 (on both hinges).

• By adjusting Screw 3 the entire door will move IN or OUT, opening

or closing the gap between the doorframe and cabinet. (This screw

rarely needs adjustment.)
