WARNING:
Failure to follow these warnings and assembly instructions
could result in serious injury or death. To help prevent serious or fatal injuries from entrapment or
falls:
•
Read all instructions before assembling bunk bed.
•
Before each usage or assembly, inspect bunk bed for damaged hardware, loose joints, missing
parts or sharp edges. DO NOT use bunk bed if any parts are missing or broken. Telephone or
write to Pottery Barn Kids for replacement parts and instructional literature if needed. DO NOT
substitute parts.
•
Follow the information on the warnings appearing on the upper bunk end structure and on the
carton. DO NOT REMOVE WARNING LABEL FROM THE BED.
•
Always use the recommended size mattress or mattress support, or both, to help prevent the
likelihood of entrapment or falls.
•
Ensure thickness of mattress does not exceed 9” and the surface of the mattress is at least 5"
(127 mm) below the upper edge of guardrails.

Always use guardrails on both long sides of the upper bunk. If the bunk bed will be placed next to
a wall, the guardrail that runs the full length of the bed should be placed against the wall to prevent
entrapment between the bed and the wall.
