4. Setup Instructions

Follow these steps carefully for proper assembly. It is recommended to assemble the bed in the room where it will be used.

1. Unpack and Identify Parts: Lay out all components on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches. Compare each part to the parts list in your separate assembly guide.
2. Assemble the Cabinet Frame: Begin by connecting the side panels to the base and top panels using the provided hardware. Ensure all connections are secure.
3. Install Mattress Frame Mechanism: Attach the folding mattress frame and its support mechanisms to the inside of the cabinet, following the specific diagrams in your assembly guide. Ensure all hinges and moving parts are correctly aligned.
4. Assemble the Drawer: Construct the storage drawer using the drawer panels and glides. Install the drawer into the designated slot at the bottom of the cabinet.
5. Install Charging Station: Secure the built-in charging station into its designated cutout on the side of the cabinet. Connect the power cord as instructed.
6. Attach Front Panels: Secure the decorative front panels to the folding mattress frame. These panels form the cabinet exterior when the bed is closed.
7. Secure to Wall: This is a critical safety step. Position the assembled unit against a wall. Using the anti-tip hardware, securely fasten the top of the cabinet to at least two wall studs. This prevents the bed from tipping forward when opened or closed.
8. Final Checks: Ensure all screws and bolts are tight. Test the opening and closing mechanism of the bed several times to confirm smooth operation.

6. Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your Murphy bed.

• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that may damage the finish.
• Fastener Checks: Periodically inspect all screws, bolts, and connections. Tighten any loose fasteners to maintain stability.
• Mechanism Inspection: Check the folding mechanism and hinges for any signs of wear or damage. If the mechanism becomes stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to moving parts (avoid oil-based lubricants).
• Charging Station: Ensure the charging station and its cord are free from damage. Do not use if frayed or exposed wires are present.

7. Troubleshooting

• Charging Station Not Working:
  • Confirm the bed's main power cord is securely plugged into a live wall outlet.
  • Check if the wall outlet itself is functional by plugging in another device.
