6.12 Beds
6.12.1 Pull-down bed, mechanically operated
 The maximum permitted pull-down bed load is 200 kg.

The pull-down bed is not to be used for the storage of luggage. When
the bed is not being used, only place the bed linen (max. 8 kg) which
is required for two persons in it.
 Before commencing the journey, allow the pull-down bed to engage in
the upper position.
 Only use the pull-down bed, if the safety net is set up.

Never allow small children to remain in the pull-down bed without su-
pervision.
 But in particular with regard to small children less than 6 years of age,
users should ensure that they cannot fall out of the pull-down bed.
 Use separate children's beds or travel cots suitable for children.

Do not use the armrest on the driver's seat to help get into bed.

You must be able to close the pull-down bed without any great effort, so
that there is no tension in the locking position. Objects on the pull-down
bed can distort the lifting mechanism on one side, resulting in damage.
