Guide d'entretien des meubles
This official Furniture Maintenance Guide provides clear, practical recommendations to preserve the appearance, structural stability, and service life of all furniture purchased from Ferquer. Proper daily care helps avoid premature wear, damage, and deformation, and ensures your furniture remains in optimal condition for years. Following these guidelines will also help you maintain valid warranty eligibility for normal use.
1. General Daily Care Rules
All furniture types require basic daily maintenance to avoid unnecessary damage. Please follow the universal rules below:
-
Keep indoor ventilation dry and avoid long-term humid or damp environments. Excessive humidity may cause wood expansion, deformation, mold, or rust on metal accessories.
-
Avoid long-term direct sunlight exposure. Continuous ultraviolet radiation will cause fading, color difference, dry cracking, or surface aging of wooden, painted, and leather furniture.
-
Place furniture on flat ground to prevent uneven stress, tilt, or structural deformation.
-
Do not place over-heavy objects beyond the product load-bearing range to avoid board bending, collapse, or damage.
-
Keep sharp objects away from the furniture surface to prevent scratches, cuts, and surface coating damage.
2. Wooden Furniture Maintenance
Wooden furniture has natural texture and slight wood grain differences, which are normal characteristics and not quality defects. Please maintain it as follows:
-
Clean dust regularly with a clean, soft, dry cotton cloth. Do not use rough cloths to avoid scratching the surface paint layer.
-
For stains, slightly dampen a soft cloth with clean water and wipe gently, then dry immediately to prevent water penetration into the wood.
-
Do not place hot tableware, kettles, or high-temperature items directly on the wooden surface to avoid scald marks, blistering, or paint peeling.
-
Avoid long-term water soaking or liquid accumulation. Water stains left for a long time will cause wood swelling, discoloration, and mildew.
-
Do not use strong chemical cleaners, alcohol, disinfectants, or corrosive detergents, which will damage the surface coating and cause fading and aging.
3. Upholstered & Fabric Furniture Maintenance
Fabric sofas, chairs, and upholstered furniture require regular cleaning and protection to keep clean and tidy:
-
Clean surface dust regularly with a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush head to avoid dust accumulation and fiber clogging.
-
For local stains, use a neutral, mild detergent with a soft cloth for partial wiping. Avoid vigorous scrubbing to prevent fabric pilling, fading, and fiber damage.
-
Do not expose fabric furniture to strong sunlight for a long time to prevent fabric fading and fiber embrittlement.
-
Keep sharp items, pet claws, and sharp decorations away to avoid fabric tearing and wire drawing.
-
Avoid long-term compression of the same position for a long time; regular arrangement of cushions can effectively prevent local collapse and deformation.
4. Metal & Hardware Accessories Maintenance
Metal legs, handles, hinges, and other hardware accessories need daily anti-rust and anti-corrosion maintenance:
-
Wipe metal parts regularly with a dry soft cloth to keep dry and clean.
-
Avoid long-term contact with water, humid air, sweat, and corrosive liquids to prevent oxidation, rust, and surface discoloration.
-
Do not pull or squeeze hardware parts violently to avoid loosening, deformation, or functional failure.
-
Check the tightness of screws and accessories regularly. If loose, tighten them appropriately to ensure structural stability.
5. Glass & Marble Surface Maintenance
-
Clean glass and marble surfaces with a soft cloth and neutral cleaning agent, wipe dry to keep bright and clean.
-
Avoid heavy impact and sharp scratching to prevent surface cracking, chipping, and abrasion.
-
Do not place high-temperature objects directly on the marble surface to avoid scald marks and texture damage.
6. Daily Placement & Usage Tips
-
Maintain a 5–10 cm gap between furniture and the wall to ensure air circulation and avoid moisture and mildew.
-
Do not drag furniture forcibly when moving. Lift it gently to prevent leg damage, floor scratching, and structural loosening.
-
Keep indoor temperature and humidity balanced to avoid drastic climate changes causing wood expansion and contraction deformation.
7. Maintenance Prohibitions (Affecting Warranty)
The following improper operations will cause irreversible damage and are not covered by the statutory warranty:
-
Artificial collision, extrusion, fall, and violent disassembly without official authorization
-
Improper use of corrosive, strong acid, strong alkali cleaning agents
-
Long-term humid storage, water soaking, and no timely drying treatment
-
Self-disassembly, modification, and secondary processing of furniture structure
