IKEA Worktop Instruction Manual

The worktop is made of melamine laminate pressed onto particleboard. Melamine laminate is made by pressing melamine-resin-impregnated paper together. Applying pressure with heat hardens the surface and, when cooled down, a permanent and durable plastic finish is the result. Melamine laminate is used for surfaces that need to withstand daily wear and tear for a long time. Alterations are not recommended, except where cutting the worktop is necessary for installation, and additional edge covering is supplied with the product.

Advice for use:

Before installation

  • Before installation, store the worktop in a room with normal temperature and humidity levels. Do not place the worktop against a warm radiator, or lay it on a cold floor.
  • When storing the worktop, stand it on the back edge of its long-side.
  • Do not open the plastic package until you are ready to install the worktop.
  • Supporting legs are required when an overhang exceeds 25 cm. The maximum distance between these legs should not be more than 80 cm.
  • Worktops that are installed above a dishwasher, washing machine or oven should be protected on the underside with FIXA diffusion barrier.
  • Not suitable for use in wet rooms.
  • Only recommended for indoor use.

Care and maintenance

  • For daily cleaning, use ordinary washing-up detergent, soap or water. Never use chemicals to clean the worktop.
  • If you spill something on the worktop, wipe clean immediately with a soft cloth dampened in water and a mild washing-up detergent or soap.
  • Do not use products that contain abrasives, ammonia or bleach. Dry with a dry, clean cloth.
  • Do not place hot objects directly on the worktop. Always use a pot stand to protect the worktop surface.
  • Always use a chopping board, never cut directly on the worktop with a knife.
  • Never pull an object with rough or ragged edges across the worktop as it can scratch the surface.
  • Do not place a toaster, coffee maker, kettle or other kitchen appliances that emit heat directly over a seam between two worktops because the heat can damage the seam.
  • Never use a steel scoured, scoured pad or similar products as they can scratch the surface.
