CARE INSTRUCTIONS
1/ Your product
Properties
Aluminium is a light, resistant material that doesn't rust.
The top is made of a material consisting of a mixture of calcite powder and PVC (polyvinyl chloride)
extruded and pressed at high temperature and a decorative top layer of PVC. Its surface is
non-porous and easy to clean.
Texaline is a cloth made up of polyester fibres covered with braided PVC.
Polyester is a synthetic fabric that offers good resistance to tearing and rubbing.
Manufacturing and assembly
The manufacturing then assembly of this product requires leaving clearance between the different
parts.
It is therefore normal to observe gaps/slack that may reach several millimetres between the different
assembled elements (between two slats, between boards...).
This tolerance necessary for the correct realisation of your product can be behind little geometric
differences.
This does not lead to any loss of function of your product.
Irregular appearance
Each product is manufactured and assembled industrially from parts whose surface treatment is
carried out individually, before assembly. These metallic elements cannot be free from appearance
irregularities coming both from the surface treatment process and assembly operations. The final
appearance of the product is therefore directly linked to these possible irregularities.
Regularity of seams
Although we pay special attention to the quality and regularity of seams, it is possible to notice that
some threads are not cut after the break point of the seam. There is no risk of the seam becoming
undone. Cut this thread with a simple pair of scissors.
2/ Precautions for use
Do not put hot objects on the table itself, they will leave permanent marks on it (discoloration,
deformation, cracks...). Always use table mats.
Do not use a plastic tablecloth on the table. Exposed to UV and heat, it would melt and act as a
decal, especially on steel, aluminum and glass. This would result in irreparable deterioration of the
tray in the form of white streaks. Instead, use a fabric tablecloth.
Avoid thermal shocks on the glass (do not put hot objects directly on the table, use table mats, do not
put icy products if the table is in direct sunlight). The accumulation of this type of thermal shock
makes the glass fragile and can cause it to explode. However this phenomenon remains rare and
presents no danger: the tempered glass explodes into small non-sharp pieces.
Watch out for blows from knives and other sharp objects handled nearby. Watch out too for burns
from cigarettes and from other heat sources.
If you don't use your cushions for a long period, it is advised to put them away to avoid possible
discolouration during too long an exposure to UV rays.
