- Using the Bunks: The upper bunk is accessed via the integrated ladder. Ensure the ladder is always clear of obstructions. The lower bunk offers a spacious sleeping area.
- Tent Feature: The tent fabric on both the upper and lower beds can be used to create a private play space. The tent on the lower bed can be rolled away to create additional open space.
- Mattress Placement: Place a full-size mattress (not included) on both the upper and lower bunk platforms. Ensure the mattress does not exceed the recommended 6-inch thickness for the upper bunk to maintain safety rail effectiveness.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the wood surfaces with a dry cloth. For the tent fabric, spot clean with a mild detergent and water as needed. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Fastener Checks: Periodically (e.g., monthly) check all bolts and screws to ensure they are tight. Loose fasteners can compromise the bed's stability and safety.
