Furniture Care Guide
IMPORTANT INFORMATION - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
Your new upholstery has been constructed to very high standards and uses carefully selected materials, however the performance of your upholstery will very much depend upon its use and maintenance. The following advice will help prolong its life.
FABRIC UPHOLSTERY GENERAL CARE
Sit on your suite in comfort, avoid sitting on arms or edges, which may cause distortion and reduce the life expectancy of your suite.
Avoid allowing sharp items such as toys, jewellery and buckles (and pets!) to snag the fabric. If snags do occur, push it in using a pin, do not pull them.
Avoid constant exposure of fabrics to direct sunlight, which may result in fading and premature wear of the fabric.
Avoid dry cleaning covers unless the furniture specifically states that this type of cleaning is appropriate.
CUSHION CARE
Regularly turn all reversible cushions and switch their position to give balanced wear.
Regularly plump all fibre filled cushions vigorously in order to retain their comfort and appearance.
CLEANING CARE
Do vacuum regularly or brush with a soft brush. Accumulated dust will accelerate wear and dull the colours.
Do use reputable and recognised professional cleaners (such as ServiceMaster) for all parts of fixed cover upholstery.
SPOTS AND SPILLS
Soak up spillages immediately with an absorbent cloth or kitchen paper. Treat with a dry foam or liquid upholstery cleaner (test in a non visible area first) and work from outside in to prevent ‘ring marking’.
Contact ServiceMaster Freephone 0800 626303 in case of difficulty.
NOTES
All foam seats interiors can lose up to 20% of their original firmness within the first few weeks of use. This is quite normal and will not affect their long term performance. Most decorative facings require minimal maintenance and can be kept clean by wiping with a clean damp cloth.
Do not use any spray polishes or solvent cleaners as these may damage the finish.
RECLINING FURNITURE GENERAL INFORMATION
Minor squeaks and creaks may emit from the recliner action in use. This is due to the number of metal moving parts and should not be a cause for concern.
We cannot be responsible for any damage or premature wear that may occur to any area of the kickboard material caused by shoes, the heels of shoes or any other form of footwear.
LEATHER UPHOLSTERY GENERAL INFORMATION
Leather is a natural product and can display natural marks and characteristics such as healed scars, grain variation, creases, growth marks, wart marks etc. These are natural features, not faults, which demonstrate the individuality of the hide and will not affect the durability or performance of the furniture in any way. Shade variations may occur within the suite and even within individual units. Whilst every effort is made to achieve uniformity, swatches, samples and store display models should only be regarded as a guide to the colour.
REGULAR CARE
Remove dust, grease and dirt with a clean damp cloth. Avoid excessive dampening and rubbing, as this may damage the surface of the hide. Detergents, solvent based cleaners and abrasive cleaners should never be used.
Pay particular attention to lighter shades, as they will require increased maintenance to avoid discolouration from dye transfer from clothes, atmospheric dirt and handling.
Soak up liquid spillages immediately and allow to dry naturally away from direct heat.
Avoid excessive exposure to direct sunlight and heat sources as these may cause fading and/or drying out of the hide, which in turn can result in splits or cracks appearing.
Avoid allowing sharp items such as toys, jewellery & buckles (and pets!) to damage the surface of the leather.
Do avoid the transfer of skin/hair products onto the leather as this may cause an irreversible chemical reaction with the finish. Dark or discoloured patches may form in high contact areas.
Do avoid using leather creams, saddle soaps, wax polishes and spray polishes, which may have an adverse effect on the leather.
Use approved Leathercare kits available from your retailer or Multimaster.
Contact Multimaster on 08700 133266 or Leathermaster on 0155 946 0274 in case of difficulty.
WE AS MANUFACTURERS CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PROBLEMS RELATING TO ANY FORM OF TREATMENTS APPLIED BY THE CONSUMER OR A THIRD PARTY, OR BY NON COMPLIANCE WITH THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS
