5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Converting Sofa to Bed
The VanAcc L-Shaped Sectional Sofa Bed features an integrated pull-out mechanism to easily transform it into a sleeping surface.
- Locate Pull Handles: Identify the fabric pull handles located at the front of the sofa section that converts into a bed.
- Pull Out Bed: Gently pull the handles outwards and upwards. The bed mechanism will slide out from underneath the sofa. Continue pulling until the bed is fully extended and locked into place.
- Return to Sofa: To convert back, lift the front edge of the extended bed slightly and push it back into the sofa frame until it is fully retracted.

6. Maintenance and Care
6.1 Fabric Care (Linen)
- Regular Cleaning: Vacuum the sofa regularly using an upholstery attachment to remove dust and loose debris.
- Spot Cleaning: For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub, as this can spread the stain. For stubborn stains, use a mild fabric cleaner specifically designed for linen, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading. Position your sofa away from direct sun or use curtains/blinds.
- Professional Cleaning: For deep cleaning, consider professional upholstery cleaning services.
6.2 Frame and Mechanism Care
- Check Connections: Periodically check all bolts and screws and re-tighten them to ensure the frame remains stable.
- Lubrication: If the pull-out bed mechanism becomes stiff, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the moving parts.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals on the frame or mechanisms, as this can cause damage.
7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Sofa feels unstable or wobbly. | Loose connections in the frame. | Check and tighten all bolts and screws. Ensure all sections are properly interlocked. |
| Pull-out bed mechanism is stiff or difficult to operate. | Lack of lubrication or obstruction. | Ensure no objects are obstructing the mechanism. Apply silicone lubricant to moving parts if necessary. |
