CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS. CERTIFICATES
Gentle and proper cleaning of furniture surfaces and partition
walls is especially important in retaining their optimum con-
dition for as long as possible.
We generally recommend cleaning with a moist, fluff-free
cloth, moistened with pure water without the addition of any
cleaning agents; furniture polishes or similar. If cleaning with
a damp cloth proves not to be adequate, careful use of a
mild plastics cleaner without abrasive additive is admissible
on melamine surfaces.
Wood polishes must not be used on open-pored lacquered
veneer surfaces (oak, walnut and bamboo). This settles into
the open pores, closes them and gives the surface a greasy,
glossy appearance after a while. The desired semi-gloss and
open-pored veneer appearance is ruined.
Furniture polishes available off-the-shelf can be used for
closed-pore lacquered surfaces (beech and maple). They fill
the finest of scratches in the lacquer and cover them up
relatively well. An enhanced glossy appearance of the surface
is difficult to prevent. Never use polishes containing silicon,
caustic cleaning agents with ammonia additives, alcohol or
softeners. The same applies for scratching cleaning agents
with abrasive additives.
Glass and material surfaces are to be cleaned in accordance
with manufacturer's instructions. Please contact Bene for
information and documentation on this matter. Bene can not
assume any liability for damage to surfaces caused as a result
of improper cleaning.
No special instructions are required to disassemble our
products. You can use standard tools for this purpose. As a
general guideline, please follow our assembly instructions in
reverse order.
