Maintenance

Regular maintenance will help preserve the appearance and functionality of your Camper Van Bed.

Cushion Care

• The cushion covers are made of washable linen. For cleaning, remove the covers and follow the washing instructions on the fabric label. Typically, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and air dry to prevent shrinkage.
• Do not bleach or tumble dry the covers.
• Spot clean minor spills immediately with a damp cloth and mild detergent.

Frame Care

• The wooden frame has an unfinished surface, allowing for personalization. If you wish to protect the wood, consider applying a wood sealant, varnish, or paint suitable for interior furniture.
• Wipe the wooden surfaces with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they remain tight. Retighten as necessary to maintain structural integrity.
• Keep the sliding mechanism free of debris to ensure smooth operation. Lubricate with a silicone-based spray if movement becomes stiff.
