Assembly Instructions for IKEA JÄTTESTA TV Bench

Important Safety Information

Warning: Serious or fatal crushing injuries can occur from furniture tip-over. To prevent this, the furniture must be permanently fixed to the wall using the included wall attachment devices. Screws and plugs for the wall are not included, as they must be chosen based on your specific wall material. If you are uncertain about the correct hardware, seek professional advice.

Before You Begin

Ensure you have a clear workspace on a soft surface to prevent scratching the furniture. You will need a screwdriver and a spirit level for assembly. Verify that all hardware components listed in the manual are present before starting.

Assembly Steps

Follow the assembly steps in the order provided to ensure structural integrity.

Initial Frame Assembly

Begin by inserting the dowels and cam locks into the designated panels. Connect the main frame components carefully, ensuring all cam locks are tightened correctly to secure the joints.

Structural Reinforcement

Proceed through the steps to attach the support beams and shelves. Use the provided screws and tools to tighten all connections. Ensure the frame is square and stable before proceeding to the final steps.

Wall Mounting

This is the most critical step for safety. Use the provided wall brackets to secure the unit to the wall. Ensure the brackets are firmly attached to the wall structure. Do not skip this step, as the unit is prone to tipping without it.

Adjustments

Use the provided spacers (part 114664) to adjust the distance between the furniture and the wall if necessary. The spacers allow for adjustments of 6mm, 12mm, or 18mm to accommodate skirting boards or wall irregularities.
