4.2. Retracting the Bed

1. Remove any bedding or pillows that might obstruct the folding mechanism.
2. Lift the bed frame upwards, guiding it back into the cabinet.
3. Ensure the support legs fold in correctly as the bed retracts.
4. Push the bed firmly until it is fully upright and securely latched into the cabinet.

4.3. Using the Integrated Desk

The desk can be used when the bed is retracted. Its unique design allows items to remain on the desk surface when the bed is folded up or down.

2. When deploying or retracting the bed, the desk surface will maintain a level position, keeping your items stable.
