5. Operating Instructions

This product is a bed frame and does not require specific operating instructions. Once assembled, place your mattress directly onto the steel support slats. No box spring is needed.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the metal frame and faux leather headboard with a dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that may damage the finish.
• Regular Checks: Periodically inspect all bolts and connections to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.
• Faux Leather Care: To prolong the life of the faux leather, avoid direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Address spills immediately with a damp cloth.

7. Troubleshooting

• Squeaking Noises: If the bed frame makes noise, check all bolts and connections. Tighten any loose hardware. Ensure the mattress is properly seated on the slats.
• Mattress Sliding: If the mattress tends to slide, ensure it is centered on the frame. Anti-slip pads can be placed between the mattress and the slats if needed.
• Instability: If the frame feels unstable, re-check all assembly steps, ensuring all parts are correctly installed and tightened. Refer to the assembly instructions.
