1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Place them on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Reclining the Sofa

1. Locate the Recliner Lever: The manual recliner lever is typically located on the outer side of the armrest.
2. Engage Recline: Pull the lever firmly towards you. This will release the footrest and allow the backrest to recline.
3. Adjust Position: Lean back gently to achieve your desired reclining angle. The footrest will extend as you recline.
4. Return to Upright Position: To return to the upright position, push the footrest down with your legs until it locks into place. The backrest will simultaneously return to its original position. Ensure the footrest is fully locked before exiting the sofa.

6. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your sofa.

6.1 Fabric Care (100% Polyester)

• Regular Cleaning: Vacuum regularly using an upholstery attachment to remove dust and loose particles.
• Spot Cleaning: For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub, as this can spread the stain. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution (e.g., dish soap diluted in water) and a clean cloth. Test on an inconspicuous area first. Blot the area with the solution, then blot with a clean, damp cloth to remove soap residue. Allow to air dry completely.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use strong detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the fabric.

6.2 General Maintenance

• Mechanism Lubrication: Periodically check the reclining mechanism for smooth operation. If it becomes stiff, apply a silicone-based lubricant to moving parts (avoiding fabric).
• Tighten Fasteners: Periodically check and tighten any loose screws or bolts to maintain stability.
• Sunlight Exposure: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent fading of the fabric.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your sofa, refer to the following common solutions:

• Recliner Not Engaging: Ensure the lever is pulled fully. Check for any obstructions around the mechanism.
• Footrest Not Retracting: Apply firm, even pressure with your legs to push the footrest back into place until it locks. Check for obstructions.
• Squeaking Noise: This may indicate a need for lubrication in the reclining mechanism. Apply a silicone-based lubricant to all pivot points.
• Sofa Feels Unstable: Check all assembly points (backrests, legs) to ensure they are securely fastened. Tighten any loose connections.

If problems persist after attempting these solutions, please contact customer support.
