Safety Information

WARNING: Always follow the assembly instructions carefully. This product must be securely anchored to the wall to prevent tip-over. Keep the area around the bed clear of heavy objects and do not allow children to play on or around the bed when it is in the folded position. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious injury or death.

Please read all instructions thoroughly before assembly and use. Keep this manual for future reference.

2. Setup and Assembly

Assembly of your Merax Murphy Bed is required. It is recommended that two adults perform the assembly. Please ensure all parts are present before beginning. Refer to the separate assembly guide included in your packaging for detailed step-by-step instructions, diagrams, and hardware identification.

Key Assembly Steps:

1. Unpack and Identify Parts: Carefully unpack all components and verify against the parts list in your assembly guide.
2. Assemble the Cabinet Frame: Follow the instructions to build the main cabinet structure.
3. Install Bed Mechanism: Integrate the folding bed frame and mechanism into the cabinet.
4. Attach Wardrobe and Drawers: Assemble and attach the wardrobe and three storage drawers to the main unit.
5. Secure to Wall: This is a critical safety step. The Murphy bed MUST be securely anchored to a wall stud using the provided anti-tip hardware. Failure to do so can result in severe injury.
6. Install Slats: Place the wooden slats onto the bed frame to support your mattress.

3. Operating Instructions

Folding the Bed into a Cabinet:

1. Remove Bedding: Ensure all pillows, blankets, and other bedding are removed from the bed surface. The design allows for a mattress and sheets to remain on the bed, but bulky items should be removed.
2. Lift the Bed Frame: Grasp the foot of the bed frame firmly.
3. Guide Upwards: Gently lift the bed frame upwards, guiding it into the cabinet opening. The folding mechanism will assist in this movement.
4. Secure in Cabinet: Continue to lift until the bed is fully vertical and securely latched within the cabinet. Ensure the safety latches (if applicable) are engaged.

Unfolding the Bed:

1. Release Latches: Disengage any safety latches that secure the bed in the upright position.
2. Lower the Bed Frame: Grasp the handle or foot of the bed frame and gently pull it downwards. Control the descent to prevent it from dropping too quickly.
3. Extend Legs: As the bed lowers, the support legs will automatically extend or can be manually positioned. Ensure they are fully extended and stable before use.
4. Position Mattress: Adjust your mattress and bedding as needed.

Using the Wardrobe and Drawers:

• The integrated wardrobe features a door for enclosed storage.
• The three drawers provide additional organized storage for various items.

4. Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will extend the life and appearance of your Merax Murphy Bed.

• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a dry cloth. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth followed by a dry cloth can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws, bolts, and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Retighten as necessary.
• Mechanism Lubrication: If the folding mechanism becomes stiff, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to moving parts as recommended in the assembly guide.
• Wall Anchoring: Regularly inspect the wall anchoring system to ensure it remains secure.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Merax Murphy Bed, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Bed difficult to fold/unfold:
  Solution: Check for any obstructions. Ensure the mechanism is clean and lubricated. Verify that all assembly hardware is correctly tightened.
• Bed does not stay securely in folded position:
  Solution: Ensure the safety latches (if present) are engaged. Re-check the assembly of the folding mechanism according to the manual.
• Drawers sticking or not closing properly:
  Solution: Check for obstructions in the drawer slides. Ensure the drawer slides are properly aligned and secured. Verify that the cabinet itself is level.
• Bed feels unstable:
  Solution: Confirm that the bed is securely anchored to the wall. Ensure all support legs are fully extended and locked into place when the bed is unfolded. Check all assembly hardware for tightness.
• Damage to panels or components:
  Solution: For any significant damage or defects, contact Merax customer support immediately. Do not attempt to use the product if it is damaged.
