English term or phrase: play the shelves out
Buongiorno,

si tratta della traduzione di articoli per la casa, nello specifico mobili.
Trovo questa frase:

"The XXX cupboard is a large bedroom wardrobe in birch. When you take out the shelves, the piece transforms into a television cabinet ideal for a flat screen television. Furthermore you can *play the shelves out* to place the television either high or low."

Ho dei dubbi su "play the shelves out"

Grazie per l'aiuto,

far scorrere le mensole


Explanation:
Credo qui intenda che le mensole possano essere fatte scorrere dall'alto in basso e viceversa per posizionare il televisore in qualsivoglia posizione.

giocare sulla rimozione/presenza/disposizione dei ripiani/mensole


Explanation:
manterrei il significato di "play" che qui, mi pare, possa meglio indicare l'aspetto ludico-creativo nell'organizzazione dello spazio.
