Safety instructions
2.3) Use
2.3.1) Intended Use
Once removed from its original packaging, the PONTE Coffee Table must be placed on a perfectly flat surface.
All the PONTE Coffee Table's supporting bases must be resting firmly on the surfaces on which it is placed; otherwise, the PONTE
Coffee Table may lose stability, making it hazardously unstable.
Weights, objects and loads must be evenly distributed across the surface of the PONTE Coffee Table and well balanced in order
to ensure stability and safety. Unevenly placed or unbalanced weights, objects and loads on the surface of the PONTE Coffee Table
may reduce its stability and thus its safety.
Sharp items or anything which may damage the glass (such as chemical products containing hydrofluoric acid) should not be
placed on the surface of the PONTE Coffee Table. If objects of this kind are placed on the surface of the PONTE Coffee Table in
spite of this warning, you are urged to take adequate precautions to prevent damage to the glass.
When placing sharp objects on the surface of the PONTE Coffee Table, a mat of insulating material (such as rubber, cork, plastic
or leather) thick enough to dampen any impacts should be placed between the float glass surface and the sharp objects. Never
place items which may damage the float glass (such as chemical products containing hydrofluoric acid) on the surface. Never
place items which may damage the float glass (such as chemical products containing hydrofluoric acid) on the surface.
2.3.2) Warnings - Incorrect use and Non-recommended use

Never place items at temperatures below -30°C (such as items just taken out of the freezer), or with temperatures above +30°C
(such as foods just removed from the oven) on the PONTE Coffee Table; exposing the table to stresses of this kind may damage
the glass, reducing its strength and thus its safety level.
Never expose the PONTE Coffee Table to intense heat sources (such as stoves or ovens); exposing the table to stresses of this
kind may damage the float glass, reducing its strength and thus its safety level. Do not expose the PONTE Coffee Table to
temperatures below -10°C or weather; exposure of this kind may damage the float glass, reducing its strength and thus its safety
level. The PONTE Coffee Table should be placed well away from items such as coat racks or ornaments which may accidentally
fall onto its surface.
