Catalina Bed Care Instructions
Special Care Instructions for Cherry Furniture -
Please read the following if you have purchased
a Copeland product in cherry.
Furniture that has been crafted from cherry wood becomes darker with age. The change in color, from a
reddish tan to a reddish brown, is most noticeable during the first six months of ownership. It is important to
understand that exposure to light accelerates the natural oxidization process. An object left on a cherry
wood surface for an extended period of time may retard the aging process in a limited area.
Simply remove the object and, over time, the surface will attain a uniform reddish brown color.
Important: Please Note:
Beds must be disassembled before moving to avoid damage. Never attempt to move the bed while it is assembled.
To care for and preserve the finish on your new Copeland Furniture piece, please keep
the following recommendations in mind.
While our furniture has been finished with a durable top coat, the surface may be sensitive to dents and
abrasions during the first 30 days in your home.
Treat the surface finish gently so it does not dent or chip. Tape or stickers should not be put on the finish.
For general care use a soft cloth to dust the furniture.
Use damp cloth with a mild soap to clean-up spills or dirt. Dry the surface thoroughly.
Please do not use any polishes, waxes or solvents to clean the surface of the furniture. This holds true for new
Copeland Furniture pieces as well as items you may already have in your home.
Please do not place any candles directly on the surface of your furniture. The perfumes and dyes in the candles
may penetrate the finish.
If you have any questions or difficulties, please call us at the number below between the hours of 8:00 am and 4:30 pm eastern time.
