Operating the Drawer Slides

These undermount drawer slides feature a soft-close mechanism. When closing the drawer, gently push it until the soft-close mechanism engages. The drawer will then pull itself shut quietly and smoothly, preventing slamming.

• Regolazione della profondità: Adjusted via a screw or lever on the lock device.
• Regolazione laterale: Adjusted via a screw or lever on the lock device.

Consult the specific markings on the lock devices for the exact adjustment points. After making adjustments, ensure all locking mechanisms are secure.
