5. Usage Guidelines

Proper use of the Bellemave bunk bed ensures safety and longevity.

• Mattress Compatibility: The upper bunk is designed for a Twin XL mattress. The lower bunk accommodates a Queen mattress. Ensure mattresses fit snugly within the frame to prevent gaps.
• Ladder Safety: Always face the ladder when climbing up or down. Use both hands for support. Do not jump on or off the bunk bed.
• Guardrail Integrity: Ensure guardrails are always in place on the upper bunk. Do not remove or modify them.
• Under-Bed Storage: The 9.4-inch height space under the bed can be utilized for storage. Do not overload this area or obstruct airflow.
• Children's Use: The upper bunk is not recommended for children under 6 years of age.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will help preserve the condition and safety of your bunk bed.

• Cleaning: Wipe the metal frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
• Hardware Check: Periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) inspect all bolts, screws, and connections. Tighten any loose hardware to maintain structural integrity.
• Environmental Conditions: Avoid exposing the bed to extreme humidity or direct sunlight for prolonged periods, which could affect the finish.

7. Troubleshooting

Addressing common issues:

• Squeaking Noises: If the bed squeaks, re-check and tighten all assembly bolts. Ensure the bed is placed on a level surface. Uneven floors can cause stress on the frame, leading to noise.
• Instability/Wobbling: If the bed feels unstable, verify that all connections are fully tightened. Ensure all frame pieces are correctly aligned according to the assembly instructions.
• Damaged Slats: If any metal slats become bent or damaged, contact customer support for replacement parts. Do not use the bed with damaged slats.
