5.1 Converting to Sleeper Bed

To convert the sofa into a sleeper bed:

1. Clear any items from the sofa cushions.
2. Locate the handle straps on the pull-out section.
3. Gently pull the straps outwards. The sleeper mechanism will extend on smooth wheels, revealing the bed surface.
4. Ensure the extended section is fully locked into place for stability.

To convert back to a sofa, reverse the process by lifting the pull-out section slightly and pushing it back into the sofa frame until it clicks into its original position.

For stubborn stains, a mild fabric cleaner suitable for chenille can be used, following the product's instructions and testing on an inconspicuous area first.
• Frame Care: Wipe the plywood frame and plastic legs with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
• Cushion Care: The back cushions have detachable covers for easy cleaning. Refer to the care label on the cushion covers for specific washing instructions. Seat cushions are not removable.
• General Maintenance: Periodically check all bolts and screws to ensure they remain tight. Tighten if necessary.
