TO AVOID THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY, DO NOT
ALLOW CHILDREN TO PLAY ON THE BED UNIT OR
OPERATE IT WITHOUT ADULT SUPERVISION.
>
You MUST have another ADULT help you while installing
your I-Semble ® wall bed unit to make sure the bed doesn’t
close inadvertently while you are working. Failure to do
so increases the risk of serious injury.
>
You MUST install ALL 1/4" x 3" Washer Head Lag Bolts
into 2 x 4 or larger wooden wall studs. Failure to secure
the unit into wooden wall studs increases the chance that
the bed cabinet will detach and tip over, potentially resulting
in serious injury.
>
Cabinets for vertical Twin and vertical Full beds MUST
be secured, using all required hardware, to at least two (2)
wall studs; cabinets for vertical Queen beds wall beds MUST
be secured to at least three (3) wall studs.
>
Wall Bracket (HH) and lag bolt placement on images in
these instructions is for illustration purposes only. To avoid
the risk of serious injury, you must correctly place and
securely attach Wall Brackets and lag bolts to wooden
studs in your wall.
>
The bed will not stay down without the weight of a mattress.
Operating the bed mechanism without a mattress in place
increases the risk of sudden closing, entrapment and
serious personal injury.
>
Do NOT use wall anchors or drywall anchors.
>
Do NOT install against brick or masonry walls or walls
with metal studs.
>
Do NOT use an impact driver to drive fasteners; the added
torque increases the risk of stripping the pilot holes and
weakening connections. Do NOT overtighten screws.
>
Do NOT stand on the bed without an adult helper holding
it down to prevent it from lifting up.
>
Do NOT deviate from the required interior cabinet opening
dimensions listed for the bed size you will be building.
An improperly sized bed cabinet could create a safety
hazard and result in serious personal injury.
>
Do NOT modify the recommended design of the bed
cabinet to eliminate an Upper and/or Lower Headboard.
Such modifications could allow it to more easily detach
from the wall, causing serious injury.
>
Do NOT construct the cabinet from MDF, particleboard
or melamine-coated MDF or particleboard. The decreased
screw-holding ability of these materials increases the risk
of cabinet joint failure and serious personal injury.
>
Do NOT use a foam or very light mattress with this
product. See required weight specifications below.
