2. Operating Instructions
Your Polani sofa features a convenient clic-clac mechanism, allowing it to easily convert between a sofa and a bed.
2.1 Sofa Mode
In its standard upright position, the Polani functions as a comfortable 3-seater sofa. Ensure the backrest is fully locked into the upright position for seating.
2.2 Converting to Bed Mode (Clic-Clac Mechanism)
- Clear the Area: Ensure there is sufficient space behind the sofa for the backrest to recline fully. Remove any cushions or objects from the sofa.
- Push Forward: Gently push the backrest forward until you hear a 'click'. This disengages the locking mechanism.
- Recline Back: Slowly recline the backrest backward until it lies completely flat, forming a bed surface. You should hear another 'click' as it locks into the flat position.
- Verify Stability: Once flat, ensure the sofa bed is stable and evenly supported.
2.3 Converting Back to Sofa Mode
- Lift Backrest: From the flat bed position, lift the backrest upwards until you hear a 'click'.
- Push Forward and Recline: Push the backrest slightly forward again until it clicks, then allow it to recline back into the upright sofa position. It will lock into place.

3. Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Vente-unique Polani sofa.
3.1 Fabric Care (Velvet)
- Regular Cleaning: Vacuum the velvet fabric regularly using a soft brush attachment to remove dust and debris.
- Spot Cleaning: For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub, as this can damage the velvet pile. For stubborn stains, use a mild fabric cleaner specifically designed for velvet, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading. Position your sofa away from direct sunlight or use curtains/blinds.
3.2 Frame and Legs Care
- Wipe Down: Wipe metal legs with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Check Connections: Periodically check and tighten all screws and bolts to ensure the sofa remains stable.
4. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Polani convertible sofa, refer to the table below for common problems and solutions.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Sofa feels unstable or wobbly. | Loose leg or frame connections. | Check and tighten all screws and bolts on the legs and frame. Ensure the sofa is on a level surface. |
| Difficulty converting to bed or sofa mode. | Mechanism obstruction or incorrect operation. | Ensure no objects are obstructing the mechanism. Follow the operating instructions precisely, ensuring you push forward to disengage the lock before reclining. |
| Fabric appears flattened or matted. | Velvet pile has been compressed. | Gently brush the velvet with a soft-bristled brush in the direction of the pile to restore its texture. |
