6. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your VanAcc Sleeper Sofa.

• Regular Cleaning: Vacuum the sofa regularly using an upholstery attachment to remove dust and debris.
• Spot Cleaning: For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub. For stubborn stains, use a mild fabric cleaner following the product instructions, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
• Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fabric fading. Position your sofa away from direct sun or use curtains/blinds.
• Rotate Cushions: Periodically rotate and fluff seat and back cushions to maintain their shape and even out wear.
• Mechanism Care: Occasionally check the pull-out bed mechanism for any loose screws or obstructions. Lubricate moving parts if necessary, using a silicone-based lubricant.
• Weight Limit: Adhere to the 450-pound weight limit to prevent damage to the frame and mechanism.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your sleeper sofa, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Difficulty pulling out/retracting bed:
  • Ensure no objects are obstructing the mechanism or wheels.
  • Check if the mechanism is properly aligned.
  • Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the moving parts if they feel stiff.
• Squeaking noises during operation:
  • Tighten any loose bolts or screws on the frame and mechanism.
  • Lubricate moving metal parts with a silicone-based lubricant.
• Chaise storage lid not closing properly:
  • Ensure the storage compartment is not overfilled.
  • Check for any items caught in the closing mechanism.
  • Verify that the hydraulic or spring mechanism is functioning correctly.
• Sofa feels unstable:
  • Check and tighten all leg attachments.
