Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup & Assembly
The GFW Madrid Ottoman Bed is supplied as a self-assembly product. It will arrive in several boxes with all necessary components and instructions.
- Preparation: Before starting, ensure you have sufficient clear space to work in. Unpack all components and verify against the parts list in the manual.
- Tools: Typically, basic tools like an Allen key (usually supplied) and a screwdriver will be required.
- Follow Instructions: Carefully follow the step-by-step assembly guide provided with the product. Pay close attention to securing all fasteners properly for stability and safety.
- Lifting Mechanism: When assembling the ottoman lift mechanism, ensure all hinges and components are aligned correctly before tightening fully. It's often easier to fit the mattress after the frame is fully assembled and tested.
Compatibility
- Mattress Size: This is a double bed frame designed for a 135cm wide double mattress.
- Room Size: Dimensions are D: 201 cm W: 150 cm H: 114 cm. Ensure your bedroom has adequate space for the bed and to allow for the lifting mechanism at the foot end.
Product Care & Maintenance
To ensure your GFW Madrid Ottoman Bed remains in excellent condition:
- Cleaning the Frame: Wipe the rubber wood frame with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive moisture, which can damage the wood finish.
- Regular Checks: Periodically inspect all screws and fittings to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain the bed's stability and prevent creaking.
- Protecting the Base: When using the storage compartment, avoid overloading it or placing sharp objects directly on the base to prevent damage.
- Ottoman Mechanism: Operate the lifting mechanism smoothly. Avoid forcing it open or shut. If it feels stiff, check for obstructions.
