FURNITURE TIPPING RESTRAINT
YOUNG CHILDREN MAY BE INJURED BY TIPPING FURNITURE AND YOU MUST
USE THIS TIPPING RESTRAINT TO ATTACH THIS UNIT TO THE WALL, TO
PREVENT ACCIDENTS AND/OR INJURIES.
THIS HARDWARE, MUST BE PROPERLY INSTALLED (FOLLOW ALL DIRECTIONS
IN ORDER ON THE PLASTIC BAG), TO PROVIDE PROTECTION AGAINST THE
UNEXPECTED TIPPING OF FURNITURE DUE TO IMPROPER USE.
THIS PRODUCT IS ONLY A DETERRENT. IT IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROPER
ADULT SUPERVISION. USE OF TIP-OVER RESTRAINTS MAY ONLY REDUCE, BUT
NOT ELIMINATE, THE RISK OF TIP-OVER.
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 your furniture’s 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.
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.
We hope you enjoy your purchase for many years.
