• Failure to follow warnings and cautions could result in serious injury.
• Do not use harsh bathroom cleaners or grout cleaners on any natural stone.

WARNING

• Read these instructions carefully and keep in a safe place.
• Adult assembly required.
• This product should only be used on a flat, level surface.

CAUTION

• USE preventative cleaning measures to keep your stone pristine.
• USE sealers according to the product specific directions.
• Blot spills quickly, and wash with mild soap and warm water.
• Stone countertops (Granite, Marble, etc.) are surprisingly resilient to stains and scratches. However, as a preventative measure, any spills on the stone surfaces should be wiped up within a reasonable amount of time. Do not let liquid sit on the stone overnight. Stones are most prone to staining by oil and acid, so be sure to blot these spills up as soon as they happen. Follow up by cleaning the stone with a mild non-abrasive soap and water.
• Be sure to check all packing materials carefully for small parts that may have come loose inside the carton during shipment. If parts are missing, contact THE HOME DEPOT to obtain any missing parts.
• Using abrasive cleansers will damage the surface.
