Setup and Assembly Instructions
The Polibi platform bed features an innovative mortise and tenon joint design for straightforward assembly. Follow these steps carefully:
- Prepare the Area: Clear a spacious area for assembly. Lay down a blanket or carpet to protect both the floor and the bed components from scratches.
- Unpack and Identify Parts: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Identify the headboard, footboard, side rails, support legs, slats, and hardware pack.
- Attach Side Rails to Headboard: Align the mortise and tenon joints of the side rails with the corresponding slots on the headboard. Gently slide them into place. Secure with the provided bolts and tighten using the Allen wrench. Do not overtighten initially.
- Attach Side Rails to Footboard: Repeat the process from step 3 to attach the other ends of the side rails to the footboard. Ensure the frame is square.
- Install Center Support Beam and Legs: If your model includes a center support beam, attach it to the designated points on the headboard and footboard. Screw in the adjustable support legs to the center beam and any other designated points on the frame. Adjust leg height to ensure even support.
- Place Slats: Lay the wooden slats across the bed frame. The slats are designed with a Velcro system to keep them securely in place. Ensure each slat is properly aligned and adhered to the Velcro strips on the side rails.
- Final Tightening: Once all components are in place and aligned, go back and securely tighten all bolts and screws. Do not overtighten to avoid damaging the wood.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance will help preserve the appearance and structural integrity of your bed frame.
- Frame Cleaning: Wipe the bamboo wood frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can damage the wood finish.
- Headboard Cleaning: For the upholstered headboard, spot clean with a mild fabric cleaner as needed. Test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
- Hardware Check: Periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) check all bolts and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.
- Avoid Excessive Moisture: Keep the bed frame away from areas with high humidity or direct exposure to water to prevent wood damage.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Polibi platform bed, refer to the following common solutions:
- Squeaking Noises:
Solution: Check all bolts and connections for tightness. Ensure that the wooden slats are properly seated and that the Velcro strips are securely attached to the side rails. Uneven floor surfaces can also cause squeaking; try repositioning the bed or using furniture pads. - Bed Frame Feels Unstable/Wobbly:
Solution: Verify that all assembly steps have been followed correctly and that all hardware is fully tightened. Ensure the bed is placed on a level surface. Adjust the height of any adjustable support legs if present. - Slats Shifting:
Solution: Ensure the Velcro on the slats and side rails is clean and making full contact. Realign the slats if they have moved. - Missing or Damaged Parts:
Solution: If you received the product with missing or damaged parts, do not proceed with assembly. Contact Polibi customer support or the retailer immediately for assistance and replacement parts.
