SAFETY FIRST !!!!!
1018/7018/2118/2818 Twin/Full Bunk Bed
All of Discovery’s Bunkbeds were designed and manufactured with your child’s safety as our top priority.
Their unparalleled strength is a bi-product of the safety design. Our bunks meet all compliance with
ASTM F 1427-07 “Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Bunk Beds” and Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) 1213 “Safety Standards for Entrapment Hazards in Bunk Beds” and (CFR) 1513
“Requirements for Bunk Beds”.
Safety is a cooperative effort between us as the manufacturer, and you as a guardian. Please read and consider the
warnings listed below when choosing a mattress and discussing rules of use with your child.
SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Follow the information on the warnings appearing on the upper bunk end structure and on the
carton. Do not remove warning label from bed.
2. Always use the recommended size mattress or mattress support, or both, to help prevent the
likelihood of entrapment or falls.
3. Surface of mattress must be at least 5 inches (127 mm) below the upper edge of guardrails.
4. Do not allow children under 6 years of age to use the upper bunk.
5. Prohibit more than one person on the upper bunk.
6. Periodically, check and ensure that the guardrail, ladder, and other components are in their
proper position, free from damage, and that all connectors are tight.
7. Do not allow horseplay on or under the bed and prohibit jumping on the bed.
8. Always use the ladder for entering and leaving the upper bunk.
9. Do not use substitute parts. Contact the manufacturer or dealer for replacement parts.
10. Use of a nightlight may provide added safety precaution for a child using the upper bunk.
11. Always use guardrails on both long sides of the upper bunk. If bunk bed will be placed next to
the wall, the guardrail that runs the full length of the bed should be placed against the wall to
prevent entrapment between the bed and wall.
12. The use of water or sleep flotation mattresses is prohibited.
13. Keep these instructions for future reference.

bunk bed that are not designed for use with the bed; for example, but not
