Load and blockage

The upholstered furniture is equipped with a large number of stationary and moving components. To execute the corresponding functions, the upholstered furniture is equipped with fittings that have movement-intensive adjustment mechanisms. For this reason, it is vital to observe the following information:

  • Warning: Crushing hazard!When the motorised parts of a convenience function open or close, people or animals can be injured and property can be damaged.
  • The upholstered furniture must be set up on a level surface, as individual components may otherwise be subjected to load in an unbalanced way.
  • In an extended or retracted state, an elevated load (as caused by sitting or jumping, for example) may cause parts to break off.
  • When the furniture is pushed, modified or repositioned, the legs can easily bend or break off, and the floor may also be damaged.
  • An excessive spot load can also occur if you sit down forcefully, throwing yourself onto the upholstered furniture, or if the furniture is jumped on (used like a “trampoline”).
  • When adjusting functions, never use force, even if the function is blocked.
  • To maintain a uniform look and quality, don’t always sit on the same part of your upholstered furniture, to prevent one particular spot from wearing out too quickly.
  • Ensure that extending components are not blocked by other objects and have enough space to move.
  • Do not stand up, sit down or put your feet down between the footrests with the reclining relax seat open!
  • The relax function is approved and functional up to a maximum load of 140 kg per seat. The Relax functions are approved for two persons for seat widths of 100cm and above. The maximum load is then 220kg.

For safety reasons and because of potential warranty and guarantee claims, damage to the upholstered furniture must only be rectified by a certified specialist. Specialists without certification are not permitted to alter or modify the upholstered furniture! Specialists without certification are not permitted to alter or modify the upholstered furniture!
