Onderhoudsinstructies voor meube-
len van plaatmateriaal
Gebruik voor de reiniging van uw meu-
bel van plaatmateriaal het best een
zachte, niet pluizige doek of een leren
doek. Veeg de oppervlakten ietwat
vochtig af.
In principe geldt: Gebruik zeker niet
volgende reinigings- en poetsmiddelen:
• microvezeldoeken of vuilgommen .
Deze bevatten vaak fijne slijpdeeltjes
die kunnen leiden tot krassen op de
oppervlakken;
• scherpe chemische substanties zo-
als schurende poets- of oplosmid-
delen. Deze kunnen de oppervlakken
eveneens beschadigen;
• schuurpoeder, staalwol of pannen-
sponzen. Ze vernielen het oppervlak
zo erg dat een reparatie niet meer
mogelijk is;
• stofzuiger. Mondstukken en borstels
kunnen krassen op de oppervlakken
veroorzaken;
• stoomreiniger. Door de hoge druk en
de hitte, waarmee de stoom op de bo-
venlagen komt, kunnen deze worden
beschadigd of zelfs loskomen van de
ondergrond.

Dear customer,
Thank you for your order!
No matter if you bought a piece of
furniture made from natural wood, a
high-gloss front or a plastic front – every
piece of furniture has unique charac-
teristics. Even the texture and structure
of wood, such as small knots in natural
wood furniture, are part of the individual
charisma of each piece of furniture.
Since natural wood furniture are perma-
nently exposed to climate and humidity
fluctuations, changes to the surface
may occur (e.g. hair cracks or changes
in colour) in some cases. In general,
brightness decreases and colour satu-
ration increases in the course of time –
the wood darkens.
The changes mentioned above are nor-
mal for natural raw materials such as
wood.
This booklet provides some care tips for
your piece of furniture so that you can
enjoy it for a long time.
The following applies in general:
• Don't place any hot objects on the fur-
niture.
• Don't place candles directly on the
furniture.
• Immediately wipe off any spilled liq-
uids.
• Regularly check if the screws and fit-
tings are tight.
• The typical, aromatic wooden odour
is always a proof of quality for natural
wood furniture.
• The natural emission of resin may
produce bright spots on the knots
which can be polished with a dry, lint-
free cloth.
GB
• Initially, a slight intrinsic odour is
unavoidable for other wooden, paint,
leather or upholstery materials too.
These odours automatically disappear
after a while. If you want to speed up
this process, ventilate more often at
the beginning and/or wipe out the fur-
niture with a slightly damp cloth which
was soaked in water mixed with a
small amount of vinegar.
• Keep these notes in a safe place.
Care notes for stripped/oiled furni-
ture made of natural wood
The surface of your new piece of furni-
ture has been treated with pure organic
oil. We recommend an occasional after
treatment with suitable furniture oil to
preserve this natural, stripped/oil gloss.
Since some residue of natural oil may
remain on the furniture due to the sur-
face treatment method, we recommend
to rub off the furniture with a lint-free
cloth. After use, let the cloth dry com-
pletely before disposal.
Care notes for untreated/painted fur-
niture made of natural wood
Using a moderately damp cloth is the
most suitable method for cleaning the
surface.
Attention: Corrosive cleaners as well
as cleaners containing solvents or polish
must not be used.
Care notes for furniture made of
panel materials
We recommend using a soft, lint-free
cloth or a shammy for conditioning your
piece of furniture made of panel materi-
als. Wipe off the surfaces with a slightly
damp cloth or shammy.
The following applies in general:
Please don't use the following deter-
gents or cleaning agents at all:
• microfibre cloths or dirt erasers .
They often contain fine abrasive par-
ticles which can cause scratches on
the surfaces;
• aggressive chemical substances
as well as abrasive cleaning agents
or solvents. They may damage the
surfaces too;
• scouring powder, steel wool or
scouring pads. They destroy the
surface so badly that reconditioning is
impossible;
• vacuum cleaners. The nozzles and
brushes can cause scratches on the
surfaces;
• steam cleaners. The surfaces may
be damaged or separated from the
ground due to the high pressure and
heat of the water vapour.
