Step-by-step assembly

Step 1
Press frame A down onto the 4 feet.

Step 2
Click the 4 long posts into the corners of frame A.
Push each one straight down until it clicks.

Fit the 2 side panels with the circle between the posts.
Set the lower edge into the groove (click), then press the panel upright into the posts until it clicks.

Press frame B onto the posts.
All 4 corners click into place.

Step 5 · manual step 6
Click the 4 short posts into frame B.

Fit the first door into the rear grooves.

Tips & safety
- Open back for the pipes The cabinet has no back panel, and frames A, B and C have a U-shaped cut-out at the back for the sink’s waste pipe.
- Sliding doors Each door runs in its own groove — the front one and the rear one slide past each other.
