Safety Information
- Be cautious of pinch points when assembling metal components.
- Do not exceed 500 pounds in weight capacity.
- Always follow assembly instructions for stability and safety.
- Ensure all bolts are securely tightened before use.
Setup & Assembly
The DHP Maven Upholstered Platform Bed is designed for quick and straightforward assembly. All necessary tools are included. It is recommended to assemble the bed frame in the room where it will be used.
Key Assembly Tips:
- Finger-tighten bolts first: Do not fully tighten any bolts until all components are loosely assembled. This allows for easier alignment of parts. Once all parts are in place, then fully tighten all bolts.
- Work on a flat surface: Ensure you have a clear, flat area for assembly to prevent damage to parts and ensure proper alignment.
Assembly Steps:
- Unpack all components and verify against the parts list in your included manual.
- Assemble the main metal frame components, ensuring all connections are aligned before tightening.
- Attach the upholstered side rails and end pieces to the metal frame.
- Install the wooden slat bases. These slats adapt to weight, providing support and allowing air circulation for your mattress. A box spring is not required.
- Ensure all connections are secure and stable.

- Ensure the mattress is centered on the bed frame for even weight distribution.
- Avoid placing excessive weight on any single point of the bed frame.
Maintenance

- Cleaning: Wipe with a dry cloth to remove dust and debris. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Regular Checks: Periodically check all bolts and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause the upholstery to fade.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your DHP Maven Upholstered Platform Bed, please refer to the following common solutions:

| Bed frame is wobbly/unstable | Loose bolts or incorrect assembly. | Check all bolts and connections; tighten securely. Refer to assembly instructions to ensure all parts are correctly installed. |
| Squeaking noises | Loose connections or friction between parts. | Tighten all bolts. Apply a small amount of lubricant (e.g., silicone spray) to contact points between metal parts or where slats meet the frame. |
