This manual describes the assembly and use of the Floyd Chaise, an accessory designed to be attached to a Floyd Sofa to create a chaise lounge configuration. The chaise is intended for indoor use and provides an extended seating area, allowing for a more relaxed and versatile lounging experience.

Function Description:

The Floyd Chaise functions as an extension to a compatible Floyd Sofa, transforming a standard sofa into a chaise lounge. It consists of a chaise panel, four legs, connector plates, and a chaise cushion. The chaise panel provides the structural base, supported by the four legs, and connects to the main sofa unit via connector plates. The chaise cushion, specifically designed for this extension, replaces a standard seat cushion on the sofa to create a continuous, elongated seating surface. This modular design allows users to customize their sofa setup, adding a chaise to either the left or right side of the sofa, and even switching its position later if desired. The primary purpose of the chaise is to offer additional leg support and a more comfortable reclining option, enhancing the overall functionality and comfort of the Floyd Sofa system.

Usage Features:

The assembly process for the Floyd Chaise is straightforward, designed to be manageable with assistance. The first step involves attaching the four legs to the bottom of the chaise panel using the provided knobs. It is recommended to perform this step on a soft surface, such as a rug or the product's packaging, to protect the panel's finish. Once the legs are securely attached, the chaise panel is flipped over. The next step is to attach the chaise panel to the main sofa unit. The chaise panel can be positioned on either the left or right side of the sofa, offering flexibility in configuration. Two chaise connector plates are used for this attachment. These plates are first secured to the bottom of the chaise panel with two knobs. The side of the connector plate with the longer slotted hole is then attached to the bottom of the main sofa seat panel using the remaining two knobs. This connection ensures a stable and secure link between the chaise and the sofa. After the chaise is physically attached, the final step is to replace the standard seat cushion on the side where the chaise is connected with the longer chaise cushion. A key detail for proper cushion placement is to ensure the zipper pull of the chaise cushion faces the front of the sofa. The chaise is designed to be used indoors and has a tested capacity of 300 lbs per seat. It is crucial to adhere to this weight limit to prevent personal risk and injury. The modular nature of the Floyd Chaise allows for easy reconfiguration, enabling users to adapt their living space as needed.

Maintenance Features:

The Floyd Chaise, as part of the Floyd Sofa system, requires periodic maintenance to ensure its longevity and safety. Users should regularly check that all fasteners and pins are securely tightened and in place, as they may loosen with prolonged use. The legs, panels, cushions, and hardware components are specifically designed for use with the Floyd Sofa and should not be used for other purposes. For general spills on the chaise cushion, prompt action is recommended. Mild spills should be blotted with a paper towel. For tougher spills, a mixture of mild soap and water can be used. The recommended mixture consists of one teaspoon of a liquid detergent, such as Tide, mixed with 16 oz. of water in a bowl or plastic container. When cleaning, it's important not to over-wet the material. A critical maintenance note for the chaise cushion is that the cushion covers should not be removed and laundered. Doing so could negate the stain-resistant technology of the fabric. This suggests that the fabric has a specialized treatment that could be compromised by machine washing or harsh cleaning methods. Therefore, spot cleaning as described is the preferred method for maintaining the cushion's appearance and protective properties. Proper care and adherence to these guidelines will help preserve the quality and functionality of the Floyd Chaise over time.
