6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe metal and engineered wood surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
• Fastener Check: Periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) check all screws, bolts, and connections to ensure they remain tight. Retighten any loose fasteners to maintain the bed frame's stability and prevent noise.
• Mattress Care: Rotate your mattress regularly according to the mattress manufacturer's recommendations to ensure even wear and prolong its lifespan.
• Power Outlets: Ensure the power outlets and USB ports are kept clean and free from dust or debris. Do not overload the outlets.

7. Troubleshooting

• Squeaking or Noise: If the bed frame makes noise, check all assembly points and ensure every screw and bolt is fully tightened. Loose connections are the most common cause of squeaking.
• Mattress Sliding: The bed frame is designed with grippy strips on the slats to help prevent mattress movement. If your mattress still slides, ensure it is properly centered on the frame.
• Power Outlets Not Working: Verify that the headboard's power cord is securely plugged into both the headboard's input and a functional wall outlet. Check the wall outlet with another device to confirm it has power.
• Difficulty Assembling: Refer to the detailed diagrams and instructions in your included installation manual. Ensure all parts are correctly identified and oriented before attempting to connect them.
