Before installing the bed, make sure that sufficient space has been planned for
the bed so that it does not bump against any other objects when fully unfolded
(see appendix on Space Requirements). The beds are delivered to customers on
special pallets and in boxes in some countries. The bed is then fully horizontal
and the upholstery is already in place.
As a rule, the bed is delivered by our own staff. If supplied by an external
carrier, the following applies:
The bed is delivered on a special pallet in a box. Carefully open the top of the
box. Do not use any sharp objects which might damage the upholstery.
Do not lift the bed, but first remove the upper carton cover. You can then lift the
sleeve up and put it aside.

Do not hold the bed by its upper structure (headrest, backrest, armrests or leg
rest) to lift it. If subjected to a force, these parts will give way (spline function).
You can use our special carrying aids (ill. 3) for better handling, following the
instructions below:
To get the bed off the pallet, you must first raise it through approx. 8-10 cm;
you will have to connect it to a wall outlet for this. Now press the relevant
function key (first series of buttons on the hand switch, suspended from the side
- see ill. 2).
Ill. 2
Now pull the mains plug from the socket again. Lift the inner of the two wooden
shells until the bore holes for the four special carrying aids are visible (ill. 3).
You can now screw in the carrying aids in pairs at the front and at the rear; the
bed is ready to be transported. Ideally, four people should lift and position the
bed in the location of your choice.
