WARNING!
WARNING
The counterbalancing of the EUROBED® is supported by the weight of the cabinet plus the attachment of the cabinets to the wall. It is therefore very important that the recess / cabinets system be anchored securely to the wall, as high off the floor as possible. Use the SICO wall-mounting fixture provided with the bed.
If your wall construction is such that the system cannot or should not be attached to the wall (see step 1 on page 9), follow the floor mounting instructions on page 9 through 12 instead.
Hardware is included with the EUROBED® for attaching to most wall constructions.
Follow the instructions on pages 6 to 8 to assure proper installation.
Hardware is not included for floor attachment.

The cabinet and recess sides must be at least 3/4” thick, of wood or woodlike material.
Drywall is not an acceptable material for securing the mounting plates of the bed mechanism.

If the bed is being installed in a SICO EUROBED® Recess (according to instructions #108450-04), assemble the recess and secure it to the wall, then skip to page 14.
If the bed is being installed in a custom cabinet, begin on page 6.
IMPORTANT: When installing the EUROBED® make sure the ceiling clearance is greater than 93”. For the EUROBED® 24/7 regular length bed make sure the ceiling height is 95” or greater. For the queen and extra long bed the ceiling height should be 100” or greater.

If anything is missing or if you have any questions at installation, contact SICO® Customer Service at 1-800-238-6138.
NOTE: The minimum recess depth is 18” for a standard mattress thickness of 10-1/2”; add 1” to the minimum recess depth for each additional 1” of mattress thickness.
For thicker bed faces: the standard bed face is 3/8”. For thicker bed faces (raised panel, trim, etc.), mount flush with front of recess, add the difference between the actual bed face thickness and 3/8” to the minimum depth.
IMPORTANT
For safety, you must use the correct fasteners when anchoring the system to the wall or floor. Refer to this illustration when assembling.

SECURE RECESS TO WALL
1.Recheck that the unit is level, plumb, and square. Adjust the leveling feet as necessary.
2.Determine the exact location of all wall studs behind the recess. Use a stud finder (preferably the electronic type).
3.Attach the SICO® wall-mounting fixture to the bed-recess verticals:
a.Hold the fixture flush with the top and back edges of the verticals, then push it straight back against the wall.
b.Hold the fixture in this position, and mark the location of the screw holes.
c.Drill 1/8” dia. pilot holes in both verticals, 3/4” deep.
d.Attach the fixture to the inside of the verticals with four screws (part number 103745 ) at each end.
The counterbalancing of a EUROBED® is supported by the weight of the header and cabinets plus their attachment to the wall. It is therefore very important that the header/cabinet system be anchored securely to the wall, as high off the floor as possible.
If the system cannot or should not be attached to the wall (see step 1 on page 9), follow the floormounting instructions on pages 9 through 11 instead.
WARNING
If the fixture must be moved more than 3/4” back beyond the edge of th vertical (because the wall is very uneven or out of plumb), contact the factory before installing.
The wood screws (Part No. 103745) supplied for attaching the SICO wall-mounting fixture and the EUROBED® mechanism plate are intended for verticals which are 1” or more thick. If your verticals are less then 1” thick, install washers under the screw heads as necessary.
