Operating Instructions
Using the Staircase Storage:
The integrated staircase features shelves and a spacious storage drawer. The inner storage drawer measures 36.14 inches long, 11.65 inches wide, and 5.8 inches high. Use these compartments for organizing books, toys, or other personal items. Ensure items are stored securely to prevent them from falling.

Operating the Trundle Bed:
The pull-out Twin trundle provides an additional sleeping space. To use, gently pull the trundle unit out from under the bottom bunk. To store, push the trundle unit back into its position under the bed. The trundle is designed to fit a Twin mattress up to 6 inches thick, measuring 38 inches wide by 75 inches long.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and safety of your bunk bed.
- Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that may damage the wood finish.
- Hardware Check: Periodically (e.g., monthly) inspect all bolts, screws, and connections to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten any loose hardware to maintain structural integrity.
- Wood Care: The bed is made from solid wood and veneer with low VOC finishes. Protect the wood from extreme temperature changes and direct sunlight to prevent warping or fading.
- Trundle and Drawer Rails: Keep the trundle and drawer rails free of debris to ensure smooth operation.
