- Mounting: Insert anchors (BB) into the holes and secure the mounting backplate (B) to the wall using screws (AA).
- Attaching: Place the shelf (A) onto the backplate (B) and secure it using screws (CC) and caps (DD).
Care and maintenance
Periodically check that all components are properly positioned, free from damage, and firmly connected. Use a soft, dry, clean cloth for dusting. Never use water to clean the furniture as it may damage the finish.
Troubleshooting
If the shelf is tilting, the mounting backplate is likely not installed at the same level. Use a quality level to ensure the backplate is perfectly level.
