Operating Instructions

This section details how to properly use your Dual Twin Size Wall Murphy Bed system.

Lowering the Bed

1. Ensure the area in front of the bed is clear of obstructions.
2. Gently pull the bed panel downwards from the top edge. The gas lift mechanism will assist in a controlled descent.
3. As the bed lowers, the front shelf will automatically pivot downwards to become the support leg. Ensure it is fully extended and stable on the floor.
4. Once fully lowered, the bed is ready for use.

Raising the Bed

1. Remove any bedding or items from the bed surface.
2. Grasp the bed frame and gently lift it upwards. The gas lift mechanism will assist in raising the bed.
3. As the bed rises, the shelf-leg will pivot back into its upright position, flush with the bed panel.
4. Continue lifting until the bed panel is fully upright and securely latched against the wall unit.

Using the Central Storage Unit

The central unit features two tall cabinets and four open shelves. These can be used to store books, decor, or other personal items. Ensure items are placed securely to prevent them from falling when the beds are operated.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your Murphy bed.

• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the lacquered finish.
• Hardware Check: Periodically inspect all screws, bolts, and connection points for tightness. Re-tighten any loose hardware to maintain structural integrity.
• Gas Lifts: The gas lift mechanisms are designed for long-term use. If you notice any difficulty in raising or lowering the bed, or if the movement becomes jerky, contact customer support. Do not attempt to repair or tamper with the gas lifts yourself.
• Mattress: Ensure your mattress remains within the recommended 6-8 inch thickness. An overly thick or heavy mattress can strain the lifting mechanism.
