Section 12: Interior
MAKE SURE THE SAFETY STRAPS AT EACH SIDE OF
THE FOOTBOARD ARE ATTACHED TO THE STEEL
LOOPS ON THE SOFA ARMS BEFORE PUTTING ANY
WEIGHT ON THE BED.
The label shown here is located next to the slide out controls inside
the entrance door. It should not be removed
NOTE: On some models, the Murphy bed may lock in place when lowered to
keep it from flipping up unexpectedly. In order to release the bed, a lever must
be pulled first. There are two types of levers. One is a "T" handle installed in the
side dresser and the other is a lever built into the side of the couch. When the
lever is pulled, the bed can be returned to the folded or stored position. Make
sure to latch the sliding "D" bolts on each side when bed is returned to the upright
stored position.
Remove the straps holding the mattress to the bed frame by
unsnapping the two plastic buckles on top of the mattress.
These straps can be stored on the side of the mattress, or
tucked between the headboard and the mattress. Release the
mattress hook from the foot of the bed.
Storing The Murphy Bed
Attach the "Y" strap that holds the mattress to the
bedframe. Pull the straps with the buckles up from
the head of the bed and snap them to the "Y" strap.
Secure the snap hook at the footboard. MAKE
SURE THE SAFETY STRAPS AT EACH SIDE
OF THE FOOTBOARD ARE STILL ATTACHED
TO THE STEEL LOOPS ON THE SOFA ARMS
BEFORE PUTTING ANY WEIGHT ON THE
BED.
Unhook the safety strap snap hooks from the steel
loops on the arms of the sofa.
Release the locking lever (if applicable) so bed can
be raised.
Push the bed back up into the storage position.
Keep hands and fingers away from the collapsing footboard and struts when
pushing the bed back in to the storage position.
Secure the two "D" bolts on each side of the bed.
Flip the sofa back up into the seated position:
Firmly grasp the edge of the top cushion and the front edge of the seat cushion.
Push the cushions down and towards each other so they form a "V" shape.
While holding the cushions in this "V" shape, rotate the sofa back towards the wall
and the cushions will revert to the seated position.
