when you operate the controls. These 'feet' are made from non-migrating rubber material
specially formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on your furniture. However certain
types of oil based furniture polishes, wood preservatives, or cleaning sprays may cause the
rubber 'feet' to soften, and leave marks or a rubber residue on the furniture. To prevent any
damage to your furniture we strongly recommend that you purchase small self-adhesive felt
pads, available at hardware stores and home improvement centers everywhere, and apply
these pads to the bottom of the rubber 'feet' before you place the product on fine wooden
furniture.
