Usage Features:

Assembly: The bed is designed for self-assembly. It is recommended to have two people for easier assembly, especially for certain parts like side rails, to prevent damage.
Pre-assembly checks: Before starting, users should check that all components and tools listed are present. Fittings should be removed from plastic bags and separated into groups.
Work area: A clear, spacious work area is advised. Assembly should ideally be done as close to the final position as possible.
Surface protection: Assemble the bed on a soft, level surface to avoid damaging the unit or the floor.
Power tools caution: The manual explicitly advises against using power drill/drivers for inserting screws, as this could damage the unit. Only hand screwdrivers should be used.
Natural timber characteristics: The product is made from natural timber, so variations in grain and colour between components are normal and not a manufacturing fault.
Odour: A slight odour may be present upon unpacking due to the wax and oil treatment, which will dissipate over time.
Staining: Care should be taken during assembly as the treatment process may leave some staining on packaging material, which could transfer to clothing or carpeted surfaces.
Safety: Keep children and animals away from the work area, as small parts could pose a choking hazard. Do not stand or put weight on the product during assembly to prevent damage.

Maintenance Features:

Cleaning: Use an appropriate furniture polish for natural wood furniture and a dry cloth for cleaning.
Sunlight exposure: Avoid placing the furniture in direct sunlight, as this can cause the timber to age prematurely.
Fastener checks: Periodically check for any loose screws on the unit and tighten them if necessary.
Disposal: The product should not be discarded with household waste. It should be taken to a local authority waste disposal centre.
Warranty: The product comes with a 2-year manufacturer's guarantee covering manufacturing defects. Optional extended protection (Furniture Care) for accidental damage (spills, rips, tears, burns) up to 3 years is available for purchase. Exclusions apply, such as misuse, abuse, deliberate damage, wear and tear, neglect, use in contravention of instructions, unauthorized alterations, or commercial use. Users can register their guarantee online.
Customer Support: For help with damaged or missing parts, or any other issues, a Customer Helpline (03456 400 800) is provided.
