4. Attach Convertible Bench Mechanism: Integrate the convertible bench frame and its mechanism into the lower section of the bed. Ensure smooth operation.
5. Mount Ladder: Attach the reversible ladder to either side of the bed frame, as desired. Ensure it is firmly secured.

Note: The upper bed requires a 90 x 190 cm mattress (not included). The convertible bench uses the provided 135 x 190 cm futon.

5. Operating Instructions

The MODULO V offers flexibility with its convertible bench feature.

• Using the Upper Bed: Access the upper bed using the reversible ladder. Ensure the safety rail is always in place.
• Converting the Bench to a Bed: To transform the bench into a 135 x 190 cm bed, carefully follow the mechanism's instructions. Typically, this involves lifting and pulling the seat section forward, then lowering the backrest. Ensure the futon is properly positioned for comfort.
• Converting the Bed to a Bench: To return to the bench configuration, reverse the steps, lifting the backrest and pushing the seat section back until it locks into the bench position.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will help preserve the appearance and functionality of your MODULO V High Bed.

• Cleaning the Metal Frame: Wipe the white metal frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
• Cleaning the Futon: The black futon can be spot cleaned with a mild detergent and water. Allow it to air dry completely. Refer to the futon's care label for specific instructions.
• Fastener Checks: Periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) inspect all screws, bolts, and connections. Re-tighten any loose fasteners to ensure stability and safety.
• Mechanism Lubrication: If the convertible bench mechanism becomes stiff, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the moving parts.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your MODULO V High Bed, refer to the following common solutions:

• Bed feels wobbly: Check all assembly fasteners. Ensure they are fully tightened. Verify that the bed is placed on a level surface.
• Difficulty converting bench: Ensure no obstructions are present. Check that the mechanism is clean and free of debris. Apply lubricant if necessary (see Maintenance).
• Squeaking noises: Identify the source of the noise. Often, it can be resolved by tightening loose connections or applying lubricant to moving parts.
• Missing parts during assembly: Double-check all packaging. If parts are genuinely missing, contact Vente-unique customer support with your purchase details.
