Fabric Care

For liquid spills, blot the area with a clean, dry cloth. When spot cleaning, use a lightly dampened sponge or a vacuum with a soft brush to remove dirt and debris from the upholstery. For deeper cleaning, you can use a cloth dampened with warm water. Alternatively, a soft-bristle brush can also be used to remove dirt. 

After cleaning, simply let the fabric dry.

All metal and plastic portions of the bed frame can be wiped down with a damp cloth.
