Operating Instructions
The Merax Daybed is designed for use with a standard full-size mattress. No box spring is required due to the metal slat support system.
- Mattress Placement: Place your full-size mattress directly onto the metal slats.
- Storage Shelves: Utilize the integrated shelves for books, decorative items, or personal belongings. Ensure items are placed securely and do not overload the shelves.
- Weight Capacity: Adhere to the maximum weight capacity specified in the 'Specifications' section to ensure safety and product longevity.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the metal frame and MDF surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
- Hardware Check: Periodically (every 3-6 months) inspect all bolts and screws to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain structural integrity.
- Avoid Moisture: Keep the daybed in a dry environment to prevent damage to the wood-look panels and metal components.
Troubleshooting
Issue: Daybed feels wobbly or unstable.
- Solution: Check all bolts and screws. Ensure they are fully tightened. If the issue persists, disassemble and reassemble, ensuring all connections are properly aligned.
Issue: Parts do not align during assembly.
- Solution: Do not force parts together. Loosen previously tightened bolts to allow for more flexibility, align the current parts, then gradually tighten all bolts. Ensure you are using the correct parts for each step as per the physical manual's diagrams.
Issue: Missing or damaged parts.
- Solution: Do not proceed with assembly. Contact Merax customer support with your product model number and a description of the missing or damaged part for assistance.
