Setup and Assembly
Your Alessandro Power Reclining Sofa requires light assembly. It is recommended that two people perform the assembly to ensure safety and ease of installation.
Unpacking and Preparation
- Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Ensure all hardware and the power cord are present.
- Place the sofa base in its desired location. Ensure the area allows for the sofa's dimensions (95" W x 40" D x 41" H) and provides at least 3 inches of clearance from the wall for reclining functionality. The minimum required doorway width for delivery is 32 inches.
Assembly Steps
- Align the seat back with the corresponding slots on the sofa base.
- Gently push down and snap the seat back into place until it is securely fastened.
- Locate the power cord. Plug the power cord into the designated port on the sofa, then plug the other end into a standard electrical outlet. Ensure the power cord is kept away from high heat sources or water.
