Leather is a natural product. It breathes, is warm and has individual characteristics, which makes each hide unique. Leather will always display traces of its origin such as brands, scars, creases and growth. These hallmarks add character to the bed and do not affect the wearing qualities of the product. Leather is highly resilient, durable over time and develops a patina that increasingly enhances its appeal.
- Always protect your bed from direct sunlight as this may accelerate the natural ongoing discolouration process.
- If you spill something, act quickly to mop and blot liquid with a clean white cloth. Do not use detergents and do not rub. In the event of a stain, please consult a professional cleaning company.
- Clean all parts of a bed together, as slight colour changes can sometimes occur.

> Does my TV switch on and off automatically?
Yes. For safety and convenience reasons your TV switches on and off automatically as the TV rises and lowers. This is important as it saves you struggling to find the remote control. Your TV is always off in the down position, which eiliminates the risk of overheating in an enclosed cavity which has serious consequences for both the long term reliability of the TV and ease of mind.
