This document provides assembly instructions and important information for the RiverRidge® Somerset Spacesaver, available in white (ITEM #: 06-040) and gray (ITEM #: 06-079). This furniture piece is designed as a spacesaver, likely for bathroom or utility room use, offering enclosed storage with doors and open shelving.

Function Description:

The RiverRidge® Somerset Spacesaver is a furniture unit designed to provide storage and organization, particularly in spaces where vertical storage is beneficial, such as over a toilet. It features an upper cabinet with two doors, an open shelf below the cabinet, and a lower open section. The upper cabinet includes an adjustable shelf for flexible storage. The unit is intended for adult assembly and includes specific warnings regarding tip-over prevention to ensure safety, especially around children. It is not designed to be used as a TV stand or to hold heavy objects on its top surface.

Important Technical Specifications:

Weight Capacity: The shelf unit will hold up to 25 pounds per shelf or a total of 75 pounds for the entire unit. It is critical not to exceed these limits to prevent tipping and potential injury or death.
Dimensions (implied from parts list): The unit consists of various panels and boards that form a cabinet with an upper enclosed section and a lower open section. Specific dimensions are not provided in the manual, but it is designed as a "spacesaver," suggesting a compact footprint.
Materials (implied from parts list): The unit is constructed from various wood-based panels (e.g., top board, side panels, shelves, back boards) and assembled using wood dowels, cam bolts, cam locks, screws, hinges, magnet plates, shelf holders, machine screws, handles, plastic anchors, and a plastic connection strip.
Color Options: Available in White (06-040) and Gray (06-079).

Usage Features:

Enclosed Storage: The upper section features two doors (Left Door - 1, Right Door - 2) that provide concealed storage, ideal for keeping items tidy and out of sight.
Adjustable Shelf: An adjustable shelf (12) is included within the upper cabinet, allowing users to customize the storage space to accommodate items of different heights.
Open Shelving: An open shelf (6) is located below the enclosed cabinet, offering easy access to frequently used items or for decorative display.
Spacesaver Design: The overall design is optimized for space efficiency, making it suitable for smaller rooms or areas where maximizing vertical storage is important.
Tip-Over Restraints: The unit comes with adjustable anchor brackets (P) and plastic anchors (L) or screws (M) for securing the furniture to the wall. This is a crucial safety feature to prevent tip-over, especially in households with young children. Two options are provided for securing: to drywall with anchors or directly into a wood stud.
Adult Assembly: The product requires adult assembly due to small parts and potential injury risks during the process. Children should be kept away during assembly.

Maintenance Features:

Care Instructions: The manual specifies that the cabinet should be wiped clean with a water-dampened cloth and then wiped dry with a clean cloth. This suggests a simple and straightforward cleaning process.
Periodic Checks: Adults are advised to periodically check the cabinet for damage or loose screws/parts. Any necessary action, such as tightening screws or removing damaged parts, should be taken to correct hazards.
