Separating into Two Individual Beds:

This bunk bed can be converted into two separate twin-size beds.

6. Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life and ensure the safety of your DORTALA bunk bed.

• Cleaning: Wipe the wood surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For spills, wipe immediately.
• Hardware Check: Periodically (every 3-6 months) check all bolts, screws, and connections to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
• Avoid Excessive Moisture: Keep the bed away from areas with high humidity or direct water exposure.
• Moving the Bed: When moving the bed, lift it rather than dragging it to prevent damage to the frame and floor.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your bunk bed, refer to the following common solutions:

• Squeaking Noises: Squeaking often indicates loose hardware. Re-tighten all bolts and screws. Ensure the bed is on a level surface.
• Instability/Wobbling: Check that all connections are securely tightened. Verify that the bed is assembled correctly according to the manual.
• Trundle Not Sliding Smoothly: Check for any obstructions under the trundle. Ensure the wheels are clean and free of debris.
