Operating Instructions
Placing Your Mattress
Once the bed frame is fully assembled and securely positioned, you can place your mattress directly onto the evenly spaced support slats. No box spring is required. The slats are designed to provide optimal support and ventilation for your mattress.
Utilizing Under-Bed Storage
The Zinus Caleb bed frame offers approximately 31 cm (12.2 inches) of clearance underneath, providing valuable storage space. This area is ideal for storing boxes, luggage, or other items, helping to keep your room tidy and organized.

Maintenance

- Inspection: Periodically check all bolts and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability and safety.
- Movement: When moving the bed frame, lift it rather than dragging it to prevent damage to the frame or your flooring.
Troubleshooting
