Warnings
- Keep for reference: read carefully.
- Always remember to be careful not to use the product improperly, considering its designated functions.
- When the product is no longer used, do not abandon it, but take it to a suitable public waste collection facility.
- The technological difference between wood and other materials is that woods are rich in water. Wood is therefore a hygroscopic material that is subject to water exchange with the external environment, which can cause dimensional variations and shrinkage cracks on a macroscopic level, inside a certain interval of possible humidity levels. The phenomenon of shrinkage in solid wood is inevitable because direct exposure to sun and air causes the wood to dry out naturally. Shrinkage cracks are therefore to be considered a physiological phenomenon and not proof of low quality of the material or of the presence of defects.
This product sheet complies with the legal obligations pursuant to the "Consumer Code" Decree n. 206 dated 6/9/2005 and the "Actuation Regulation" Decree n. 101 dated 8/2/1997.
