Key Assembly Tips:

Operating Instructions
This bed frame is designed to support a California King size mattress directly, eliminating the need for a box spring. Place your mattress evenly on the installed wooden slats. Ensure the mattress fits within the frame dimensions for optimal support and appearance.

Headboard Comfort:
The 50.8-inch tall wingback headboard features premium corduroy upholstery and high-density foam padding, providing comfortable back support for reading, watching TV, or relaxing.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance will help prolong the life and appearance of your bed frame.
- Cleaning Upholstery: For general cleaning of the corduroy fabric, use a soft brush or vacuum with an upholstery attachment to remove dust and debris. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Under-Bed Clearance: The 4.5-inch under-bed clearance allows for easy cleaning underneath the frame, including the use of robot vacuums.
- Periodical Check: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary.

Troubleshooting
- Squeaking Noises: If you experience squeaking, ensure all bolts are fully tightened. The EVA foam strips on the slats are designed to reduce slat-to-frame friction noise when properly assembled. Check that these strips are correctly positioned.
- Unstable Frame: Verify that all connections are secure and that the bed frame is on a level surface. Re-check assembly steps if instability persists.
- Headboard Wobble: Ensure the headboard is securely attached to the bed frame and all connecting hardware is tightened.
