Function Description:

The Rosalind Wardrobe is a piece of furniture designed for storing clothes and other personal items. It features two doors, a hanging rail for garments, and a shelf for folded items. The wardrobe is intended to be a functional and aesthetic addition to a bedroom or dressing area.

Usage Features:

The wardrobe is designed for storing clothes. The hanging rail allows for hanging garments, while the shelf provides space for folded items. The two doors open to reveal the interior, and handles are provided for easy access. Magnetic catches ensure the doors remain closed when not in use. The top cornice adds a decorative finish to the unit.

Maintenance Features:

The manual does not explicitly detail maintenance features. However, as a self-assembly product, it is implied that proper assembly will contribute to its longevity. The hinges are adjustable, allowing for fine-tuning of the door alignment after the wardrobe is in its final position. This adjustability can help maintain proper door function over time. The use of screws and bolts suggests that components can be tightened if they become loose over time, which is a common maintenance task for assembled furniture.

Assembly Process Overview:

The assembly process is broken down into 13 steps, requiring careful attention to detail and the use of specific fittings for each stage.

• Step 1: Pre-assembly Check: Before discarding packaging, verify that all listed fittings and parts are present.
• Step 2: Hinge Installation (Sides): Attach hinges to the pre-drilled holes in both side panels using bolts and tighten. The manual provides a visual guide for correct hinge lock position.
• Step 3: Dowel Installation (Sides): Insert screw-in dowels into the pre-drilled holes in both side panels and tighten.
• Step 4: Magnetic Catch Installation: Locate and install magnetic catches into the pre-drilled holes in both the top and bottom panels.
• Step 5: Panel Assembly (Sides, Top, Bottom): Attach the top and bottom panels to one side panel, tightening the cam screws. This step explicitly states that it "NEEDS TWO PERSONS" for locating the second side and tightening its cam screws, highlighting the importance of assistance for structural integrity.
• Step 6: Back Centre Rail Attachment: Secure the back centre support rail to the wardrobe structure.
• Step 7: Cornice Attachment: Once the centre support is attached, place the wardrobe on its back. Position the cornice on top of the wardrobe and secure it with 7 assembly bolts using the provided Allen key.
• Step 8: Standing the Wardrobe & Back Panel Installation: Carefully lift the wardrobe onto its legs, ensuring it is not rolled to prevent damage. A critical warning states: "DO NOT ATTEMPT TO STAND WARDROBE WITH ONE PERSON. THIS COULD RESULT IN INJURY OR BREAKAGE." Once upright, locate and tighten the back panels using 3x16 screws.
• Step 9: Hinge Installation (Doors): Attach the hinges to the pre-drilled holes in both doors and tighten the screws.
• Step 10: Door Attachment: Slide the door hinges onto the brackets on the wardrobe frame, ensuring the hinge pin fully locates. Hinges can be adjusted once the wardrobe is in its final position.
• Step 11: Handle Attachment: Attach the handles to the doors.
• Step 12: Shelf Installation: Locate the shelf supports into the pre-drilled holes on both interior sides of the wardrobe, then place the shelf onto these supports.
• Step 13: Hanging Rail Installation: Locate the hanging rail supports into the pre-drilled holes on both interior sides of the wardrobe, then insert the hanging rail.
