Assembly Instructions

- Step 1: Unpack and Identify Components
Unpack all parts from the packaging. Lay them out on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches. Refer to the parts list to identify each component.

- Step 3: Install Center Support System
Attach the two center support legs to the center support beam. Then, secure the center support beam to the bed frame's side rails. This system provides crucial stability.

- Step 4: Place Wood Slats
Evenly space and secure the wood slats across the bed frame. Ensure they are firmly attached to the side rails to provide adequate mattress support. The slats are designed to support your mattress directly, eliminating the need for a box spring.
- Step 5: Final Checks
Double-check all screws and bolts to ensure they are tightened. The bed frame should be stable and level. Gently shake the frame to confirm stability before placing a mattress.
Operating Instructions
Once assembled, place your King size mattress directly onto the installed wood slats. No box spring is required for this platform bed.
Ensure the total weight on the bed, including occupants and mattress, does not exceed the maximum capacity of 800 pounds.

Maintenance
- For general cleaning, wipe surfaces with a dry cloth to remove dust.
- For spills or stains on the upholstered velvet, wipe immediately with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Blot dry thoroughly.
- Periodically check and tighten all hardware (screws, bolts) to maintain the bed's stability and prevent squeaking.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the finish and fabric.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking Noises
If your bed frame develops squeaking noises, check all bolts and screws for tightness. Loose connections are a common cause of squeaking. Retighten any loose hardware.
Instability
Ensure the bed frame is on a level surface. Verify all support legs are making firm contact with the floor. Adjust leg levelers if present, or reposition the bed on an even surface.
Missing Parts
If any accessories or components are missing upon delivery, please contact Merax customer support immediately for replacement parts.
