Operating Instructions

Converting to a Sleeper Bed

To convert the sofa into a comfortable bed:

1. Ensure there is sufficient clear space in front of the sofa.
2. Grasp the handle located on the front of the main sofa section.
3. Gently pull the mechanism outwards until the bed frame is fully extended.
4. Adjust the backrest cushions as needed for comfort.

Using the Storage Chaise

The chaise lounge features a hidden storage compartment:

1. Lift the seat cushion of the chaise lounge. The hydraulic mechanism will assist in holding it open.
2. Store blankets, books, or other items inside.
3. Gently lower the seat cushion to close the compartment.

Adjusting Chaise Orientation

The chaise can be positioned on either the left or right side to suit your room layout. This typically involves detaching and reattaching the chaise section to the main sofa frame, following the assembly instructions in reverse and then re-assembling on the desired side.

Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life of your sofa bed:

• Cleaning: Wipe clean with a dry cloth. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
• Cushion Care: Fluff cushions regularly to maintain their shape and comfort. Back cushions are removable.
• Mechanism Check: Periodically inspect the pull-out and storage mechanisms for smooth operation. Lubricate moving parts if necessary (use a silicone-based lubricant).
• Fastener Check: Regularly check all bolts and screws to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as needed.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your sofa bed, refer to the following common solutions:

• Pull-out mechanism is stiff or not extending/retracting smoothly:
  • Check for any obstructions beneath or around the mechanism.
  • Ensure all assembly screws for the mechanism are tightened correctly. Refer to the assembly video for guidance on tightening latches.
  • Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the moving parts of the mechanism.
• Chaise storage lid not staying open:
  • Inspect the hydraulic lift mechanism for damage or misalignment.
  • Ensure the lid is fully raised to engage the support.
• Sofa feels unstable or wobbly:
  • Verify that all legs are securely attached and tightened.
  • Check the connections between the sofa sections and ensure they are firmly latched.
