4. Operating Instructions
4.1. Using the Main Bed
Place your full-size mattress directly onto the wooden slats of the main bed frame. No box spring is needed. Ensure the mattress is centered and fits securely within the frame.
4.2. Operating the Twin Trundle
- To Pull Out: Gently pull the trundle frame from under the main bed. It is equipped with wheels for smooth movement.
- To Lay Flat (Pull-out Bed): If the trundle is designed to lay flat, ensure its legs are folded down or locked into the flat position. Place a twin-size mattress on the trundle slats.
- To Erect (Elevate): For models with an erecting feature, carefully lift the trundle frame until its support mechanism locks into the elevated position, matching the height of the main bed. This creates a larger sleeping surface or a unified look. Refer to the specific mechanism in your assembly guide for detailed instructions on locking the trundle in the erect position.
- To Store: When not in use, remove the mattress from the trundle (if applicable), fold down any elevated supports, and gently push the trundle back under the main bed until it is fully concealed.

5. Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning Fabric: For general cleaning, gently vacuum the upholstered fabric to remove dust and debris. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild fabric cleaner following the product's instructions, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
- Cleaning Wood/MDF: Wipe wooden and MDF surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Fastener Check: Periodically (every 3-6 months) check all bolts and screws to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten as necessary to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fabric fading.
- Avoid Excessive Moisture: Keep the bed in a dry environment to prevent damage to the wood and fabric.
