5. Assembly Instructions
Assembly typically requires two adults. Follow the step-by-step instructions provided in the included assembly guide. Ensure all parts are correctly oriented and securely tightened.
Key Assembly Points:
- Frame Construction: Begin by assembling the main bed frame components. Ensure all bolts are finger-tightened initially, then fully tighten once the frame is stable.
- Slat Installation: The wooden slats are designed for easy assembly. Snap them into place securely. The sturdy metal structure provides robust support.
- Hydraulic Lift Mechanism: Carefully attach the hydraulic lift bars according to the assembly guide. These mechanisms will allow for smooth lifting of the mattress platform.

6. Operating Instructions
6.1. Hydraulic Lift Storage
The bed frame features a gas lift design, providing easy access to a large storage area underneath. To access storage:
- Remove any bedding or pillows that may obstruct the lifting motion.
- Grasp the edge of the mattress platform (usually near the foot of the bed).
- Gently lift the platform upwards. The hydraulic mechanism will assist in lifting and holding the platform in an open position.
- To close, gently push the platform downwards until it rests securely on the frame.
The enclosed design helps keep dust out of your stored items.

6.2. Adjustable Headboard
The velvet upholstered headboard offers two height options to accommodate mattresses of varying thicknesses or personal preference.
- The headboard can be set at either 42.5 inches or 46.5 inches from the floor.
- To adjust the height, follow the specific instructions in your assembly guide for detaching and reattaching the headboard supports at the desired height setting. This typically involves unscrewing and re-screwing bolts.

7. Maintenance
- Cleaning: For the velvet upholstery, gently vacuum with an upholstery attachment to remove dust and debris. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For stubborn stains, consult a professional upholstery cleaner or use a mild, pH-neutral fabric cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
- Hardware Check: Periodically check all bolts and screws to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as necessary to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.
- Dust Prevention: The enclosed underbed design helps minimize dust accumulation. However, occasional cleaning of the storage area is recommended.
8. Troubleshooting
- Squeaking Noises: If the bed frame produces squeaking noises, ensure all assembly hardware is securely tightened. Loose connections are a common cause of noise.
- Difficulty Lifting Mattress Platform: Ensure no items are obstructing the hydraulic mechanism. If the mattress is significantly heavier than 110 lbs, the lift may require more effort. Verify the hydraulic bars are correctly installed.
- Mattress Sliding: The bed frame is designed with an anti-slip feature (metal pins) to keep the mattress in place. Ensure these pins are correctly installed and not damaged.
- Missing Parts or Damaged Components: If you discover any missing parts or damaged components upon unboxing, do not proceed with assembly. Contact customer support immediately.
