1. Unpack and Identify Parts: Carefully unpack all components and lay them out on a clean, soft surface (e.g., carpet or blanket) to prevent scratches. Identify each part using the provided labels and the parts list in your manual.
2. Attach Headboard Legs: Secure the support legs to the upholstered headboard using the designated bolts and Allen wrench. Ensure they are tightened securely.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning Upholstery: For general cleaning, gently vacuum the upholstered headboard and frame with a brush attachment to remove dust. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For stubborn stains, consult a professional upholstery cleaner or use a mild fabric cleaner according to its instructions, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
• Frame Cleaning: Wipe metal and wooden parts with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Hardware Check: Periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) check all bolts and screws to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.

7. Troubleshooting

• Squeaking Noises: This bed frame is designed for silent operation. If squeaking occurs, check all bolts and connections for tightness. Ensure all wooden slats are properly seated in their plastic holders.
• Instability/Wobbling: Verify that all assembly steps have been followed correctly and all hardware is fully tightened. Ensure the bed frame is on a level surface. Adjust the height of the central support legs if they are not making firm contact with the floor.
• Missing Parts: If any parts are missing or damaged upon arrival, do not proceed with assembly. Contact customer support immediately for assistance.
