Usage Guidelines

• Mattress Compatibility: This bed is designed for a mattress size of 140 x 200 cm.
• Drawer Use: The two drawers are mounted on ball bearing slides for smooth operation. Avoid overloading the drawers to ensure longevity of the slides.
• Niche Use: The open niche provides convenient access to items. Do not place excessively heavy or fragile items in the niche that could be damaged or cause instability.
• Weight Distribution: Distribute weight evenly across the bed surface. Avoid concentrating heavy loads in one small area.

Care and Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the bed frame with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or polishes that may damage the finish.
• Spills: Clean up spills immediately to prevent staining or damage to the particle board.
• Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws 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 wood finish to fade or change color over time.
• Humidity: Maintain a stable room temperature and humidity level to prevent warping or cracking of the wood material.
