Using your Hyde Park King Liquid Panel Headboard is a breeze. To turn on the nightstand lamps, just use the lamp assist touch lighting on either side of the headboard. If you have a storage bed, you don't need to worry about getting a box spring as the full decking provides great support. When opening and closing the drawers, you'll notice how smoothly they operate. For maintenance, simply wipe the headboard with a soft, dry cloth regularly to keep the gray paint finish looking good. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they could damage the wood or the finish. Also, be gentle with the gun - metal hardware to prevent scratches. With proper care, your headboard will serve you well for a long time.
