1. ASSEMBLY
Information for the furniture fitter
6

1.1 SIGHTING
After unpacking, only dispose of the packaging after
your upholstery has been set up completely in order
to make sure you do not involuntarily dispose of any
assembly and accessory parts. Please do recycle the
packaging.
After unpacking, please check all elements for any
damages that may have occurred during transport.
Report any complaints within 7 days of delivery.
Each upholstery element
comes with two documents:
• the warranty certificate shows the complete and
exact product code which may be retrieved in
case of service queries.
• The document “leg assembly” as well as bags
holding legs and assembly parts are also attached.
Please make sure to keep each document
and bag attached to the respective element
up until assembly.
1.1 - 1.2 - 1.3 - 1.4 - 1.5 - 1.6 - 1.7 - 1.8
Please keep both documents safe.
The document “leg assembly” as well as bags holding
legs and assembly parts are attached to each
element. Please make sure to keep each document
and bag attached to the respective element up until
assembly.
7

1.2 ARRANGEMENT OF PRODUCTS
Use the packaging film as a surface for assembly and, in
twos, lay each element upside down.
If your sofa or your corner sofa consists of several elements,
place them next to one another in the correct order
from left to right.
Remove the wooden transport protection unit from all relax
elements.
If your sofa has electrical functions on several seats, they
will be connected to one another later on. Now, pull the
red threads to get the connection cords out of the clamping
chucks. You want them to be pulled out of the elements by
about 10cm.
8

1.3 ASSEMBLY OF LEGS
Now open each element's bag of legs and assembly accessories.
Keep each element's document "leg assembly" and
the corresponding accessories sorted at hand. The "leg assembly"
precisely shows each element's leg positioning for
easy assembly.
ASSEMBLE ALL PARTS ACCORDING TO THE DOCUMENT
"LEG ASSEMBLY". DEPENDING ON THE CHOSEN MODEL,
THIS MAY INCLUDE:
• e.g. metal or wooden legs:
they are mounted on the outer
sides of the sofa and on the
rear corner of corner elements.
• e.g. black plastic legs with metal
tabs: If your sofa or corner sofa
consists of several elements, those
elements standing next to each
other share two support legs: one
in the front and one in the back.
These support legs must be assembled
below the right element.
• e.g. metal brackets: upholstery
elements that are placed next
to table elements in home cinema
sofas are not carried by
support legs, but by brackets.
Finally, place the elements upright
on their legs.
1.1 - 1.2 - 1.3 - 1.4 - 1.5 - 1.6 - 1.7
9

1.4 SETTING UP UPHOLSTERED ELEMENTS
Your upholstery's extension elements are connected
by connection pins. You can find them in small bags
on the side of the respective element. Screw these
steel pins in, where you find them: into the black fittings
equipped with the respective threads at the sides
of the extension elements.
With assistance, place the elements in their final spot
in an upright position. Keep a 40 cm distance between
the wall and your sofa for your assistant to fit in.
USING CONNECTING PINS
10

Start assembling the two elements that will be placed
on the far right if viewed from the front.
With the help of your assistant (one of you in front,
the other in the back), place the left element on the
right element's support legs flaps. Carefully insert
the connection pins into the adjoining element's black
fitting:
1.1 - 1.2 - 1.3 - 1.4 - 1.5 - 1.6 - 1.7
Move the left element towards the right element until
they are flush, then push down the element. The connection
pins keep the elements closely together. Additional
screwing is not necessary. (Exception: two relax-elements
that are placed right next to each other)
11

1.5 CHECK THE ASSEMBLY
Sit down on both elements shortly, in order for the connection
pins to lock. Check the backside of the elements to see
whether their horizontal edges are flush.
If you notice that the elements are not flush or the pins do
not lock, carefully separate the elements correctly. With
the help of your assistant (one of you in front, the other in
the back), lift the LEFT element (viewed from the front) by
2cm and separate it slowly from the right element. Please
be very careful in order not to damage the connecting fittings.
If the elements are flush and the connection pins are locked,
keep setting up the rest of the elements in the same way.
Please always go from right to left.
Please keep in mind that, because of their weight, sofas,
especially corner sofas, can only be moved around with difficulty
after they are set up - pushing your sofa may lead to
bending or breaking its legs and your flooring may also be
damaged.

1.6 ESTABLISH ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
If your set comes with optional electrical functions, set
up the electrical connection as follows (according to the
model):
IN NETWORK OPERATION
One element has electrical function: Directly connect the
cable to the power supply unit supplied.
Several elements have electrical functions: Connect the
elements. Connect the connecting cables that you took out
of the lining during pre-assembly. Push each cable back
into the upholstered element for it to be securely stored.
Place the E-Connector between any two connecting cables
and connect the 220 volt power unit to the E-Connector.
Plug the power unit into a power plug nearby. When laying
the cable, make sure it cannot be squeezed by any moving
sofa parts.
If you connect your power supply unit to a socket before the
E-Connector is connected, sparks may occur. This, however,
does not affect your fittings' operation.
IN BATTERY OPERATION
The battery is partially charged when delivered. Set up the
sofa in a way that the charging socket in the back is accessible
at all times.
One element has electrical function: You can use this function
immediately (also see section "Charge battery")
Several elements have electrical functions: Electrically
connect these elements to each other. Connect the cables
and push each cable back into the upholstered element for
it to be securely stored.

1.7 BEATING AND ALIGNING
Your sofa just went on a long trip. During storage and
transport, some upholstered parts may have been pushed
in and stitching lines may have been moved. Take a couple
of minutes to straighten and beat the upholstered parts.
14
FLUFF UP THE
UPHOLSTERY

Make sure that your sofa is leveled and that all support
legs touch the ground.
1.1 - 1.2 - 1.3 - 1.4 - 1.5 - 1.6 - 1.7
The black support legs are height-adjustable. Upon delivery,
these legs are unscrewed by up to 5mm. Check each
leg and adjust it by turning if necessary.

2. GETTING COMFORTABLE

2.1 CORRECT SITTING
CAUTION
Sounds right: Only the seat area of your sofa is made for
sitting.
• Avoid sitting, kneeling or lying down on other parts of
your sofa like:
• the backrest, especially the adjustable headrests
• the relax elements' footrests
• the armrests
Avoid having "usual seats" and try to use all seats instead
in order for your sofa to age evenly.
New cushions will change over the first weeks of use, experts
call this "breaking in". This is why you will experience
some wave formation in the seat and back area and
seat firmness will decrease.
In these first few weeks, the cover material will stretch
while the padding layer is compressed. This is quite normal
and is no reason for complaint. Smooth out the cover
by stroking it to the left and right towards the armrests.
Functionality and longevity will then remain unlimited.
2.1 - 2.2 - 2.3 - 2.4 - 2.5 - 2.6
Your sofa was designed for coziness and comfort. In opposite
to materials used for car seats or chairs, we use soft
upholstery materials and casual looks.
CORRECT
SITTING
17

2.2 MANUALLY ADJUSTABLE FUNCTIONS
Some models are equipped with manually adjustable headrests
and/or armrests as standard. Avoid sitting down on
headrests or armrests. Damages resulting from this are
excluded from warranty.
HEADREST:
The headrest’s inclination can be manually and continuously
adjusted. Take the headrest in both hands and pull it
towards you. The headrest stops in its final position whenever
you let go. The headrest cannot be pushed back halfway.
Pull it all the way forward before you push it back. This
will disable the build-in lock and you will be able to push
back the headrest.
ARMRESTS:
The armrests inclination can be adjusted in grid positions.
Take the armrest in both hands and pull it upward. The
armrests stop in their final position whenever you let go. In
contrary to the manually adjustable headrests, you can always
push the adjustable armrests down from all positions.
ADJUSTING THE
HEADREST
18

2.3 ENJOY COMFORT FUNCTIONS
Depending on your choice, your upholstery is equipped
with one of the following comfort functions:
The electric relax function allows for the back of the sofa
to continuously drop at the touch of a button with all basic
seats. At the same time, the footrest rises which creates a
comfortable reclining surface. The relax function is admitted
and functional for up to 120kg.
The relax function is also available for the long chair element.
At the touch of a button, the seat will move forward
by about 20cm while the back continuously moves down at
the same time.
2.1 - 2.2 - 2.3 - 2.4 - 2.5 - 2.6
Make sure to keep sufficient distance to other furniture in
front of all relax seats. Especially pile carpet may interfere
with the fitting's motion sequence.
SAVING FAVOURITE
RECLINER POSITION
19

The electrically adjustable seat depth (VARIO) continuously
moves the seat forward by about 20cm. Tall people can
thereby create more seat depth: your legs will be able to
rest. The Vario function is admitted and functional for up
to 120kg.
The electrically adjustable headrests (ZEN). Your sofa's
headrests are manually adjustable as standard. Optionally,
you can choose our electrical adjustment ZEN. The headrest
can be continuously moved into the desired position at
the touch of a button.
NOTE: Do not ever sit, kneel or stand on headrests since
this may cause damage to the headrests.
20

The electric seat heating (WARM UP) guarantees a warm
seat climate even if the room temperature is low.
Seat heating can be controlled at the touch of a button in
the rear part of the seat. If you press the button (indicated
by an acoustic signal), seat heating turns on and will turn
off automatically after 10 minutes. Press the button again
within these ten minutes (double signal) to turn off seat
heating immediately. You can always restart seat heating
at any time.
2.1 - 2.2 - 2.3 - 2.4 - 2.5 - 2.6
As standard, all electric comfort functions with power supply
unit come with a USB 2.0 cable for you to charge your
devices. You can find this cable in a pocket between the
back and the seat.
CAUTION:
Repair work of the electronic components may only be
done by a specialist. Please contact your retailer for
this. Damages occurring from inappropriate, negligent or
incorrect repairs are excluded from our warranty.
21

The intelligent control (ALADIN) lets you save up to four
favorite positions which you can access simply by pressing
the ident button. To do so, please download the Aladin app
to your smartphone or tablet (download via the Apple app
store or Google Play store). When starting the app, you will
be fully guided through the clearly arranged menu.
The option Audiofix is only available for home cinema sets.
It includes hidden cables and universal speaker bases for
all speaker systems. Please have a specialist install your
hi-fi system and enjoy a perfect surround sound.
22

2.4 OPERATE EASYMOVE
Your new upholstery's unique patent electric comfort functions
are controlled by a microprocessor and they help you
to find your best comfort position easily.
"Easymove", our practical operation elements, are incorporated
into our upholstery:
• laterally incorporated in the cushions
• exceptionally at the bottom of the back cushion with
Terminal (1T/2T), corner element (C) or the middle
seats of a three-post sofa.
You can save all electromotive comfort functions for any
position (memory function). To do so, move the element
to your desired position. Save this position by pressing
the ident button and the function button until you hear an
acoustic signal.

Pressing the ident button shortly will automatically access
your favorite position. Pressing the ident button again will
close all functions automatically.
Press and hold this button until you reached your desired
position. Every time you push, the fitting will move in the
opposite direction. This handy pendulum set up makes operation
clear and easy.
The one in the front is the ident button. It allows you to access
your favorite position easily.
23

2.5 RELAX SAFELY
CAUTION!
Do not touch fittings or scissor mechanisms
> RISK OF CRUSHING.
Before closing, make sure that there are no persons, animals,
extremities or objects in the way.
Use of electric comfort functions is reserved to adults!
In order to lower the risk of clamping, we installed double
protection features for your safety:
We installed mechanical clamping protection over the
black plastic shields on the sides of the fitting: shear points
are covered and fittings cannot be touched from the outside.
The electronic clamping protection disrupts the comfort
functions movement if a set current exceeded. Therefore,
the electric headrest will not be damaged if overloaded.
With relax seats, the footrest is blocked and moved in the
opposite direction. This prevents clamping of hands and
feet.
24

2.6 CHARCHING BATTERY (ONLY WITH BATTERY OPTION)
To charge your battery, plug the charger into a plug close to
the upholstery and into your sofa's charging socket. While
charging, a red signal is lit. It dies, once the battery is fully
charged.
After charging, please disconnect the cable from the charging
socket. The battery's life span will decrease if the sofa
is constantly plugged in.
Besides, even when not in use, the sofa needs some energy
to monitor battery levels for example. Thereby, the battery
loses up to 5% of its charge per month. After a long vacation,
you may therefore have to recharge the battery, even
though you have not used your sofa. Regardless of battery
levels, please recharge your battery every two months.
Our battery systems are equipped with modern lithium-ion
batteries. They can be charged up to 1000 times. You may
not even notice the systemic decrease of their capacities to
about 80% over time.
CAUTION:
Battery systems can only be replaced by authorized technicians.
Please contact your retailer for this.
DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS:
Our battery system was produced following the Directive
2002/96 EC. The aim of the Directive on waste of electric
and electronic equipment is to improve the quality of the
environment in a sustainable way. You can emit your battery
packs at collection points based on local requirements.
NOTICE:
If you do not use your electric comfort functions for 15
minutes, your sofa's battery will automatically switch into
sleep mode. In this case, the USB port does not supply power.
Press any Easymove button to reactivate the battery.

3.1 VALUE LEATHER
A NATURAL PRODUCT
Our leather is made from free-living cattle's skin. Each animal's
history is unique and their skin tells their story: scars, insect
bites, stretch marks, veining and brands can be found.
We decided for a pristine tanning process, so you may find some
of these features on your new sofa. They show the leather's authenticity
and are no reason for complaint. The leather's fragrant
is also normal and will reduce over time.
TYPES OF LEATHER
Pay attention to the special properties of your leather quality and
choose the right care so that it remains attractive for many years
to come:
▶▶
Pure Nubuck leather (TOGO)
▶▶
Refined aniline leather (VERDI)
▶▶
pigmented smooth leather: lightly pigmented semi-aniline
leather MONTANA or corrected-grain leather TRENTINO.
TOGO - NUBUK ANILINE LEATHER WITH CHARACTER
TOGO is a natural water buffalo leather that gives every piece of
furniture an individual charm and character. The leather gets its
own patina with use, it "lives with" and becomes more beautiful
the older it gets.
The special vintage effect is achieved by treating the leather
with paraffin, oil and aniline. This leaves the pores of
the skin open and all natural characteristics visible. In
the final production stage, TOGO is polished by hand. On a
Protective treatment is deliberately dispensed with. Daily
use gives TOGO a particularly beautiful patina, it expands
and changes shape and surface texture. The effects of light
create characteristic lightening and shadows. Patina and
shiny spots are typical product characteristics and wanted.
⇒ ⇒ If you have any questions about maintenance and care,
please contact a leather specialist or www.sofa-shop.net.
3.1 - 3.2 - 3.3

4. FABRIC CARE

4.1 CHARACTERISTICS OF FABRIC COVERS
Benefit from our low-maintenance fabrics: We care a lot
about every day functionality when choosing our fabrics. If
you follow these simple steps, you will extend your sofa's
life span significantly.
PILLING AND SITTING MARKS - During the first few
weeks, fabric nodules may form ("Pilling"). Remove those
nodules like you would with woolen sweaters. With microfiber,
chenille and velour fabrics, seat shading, the so called
"sitting marks" are unavoidable.
HUMIDITY - In dry rooms, modern sythetic fibres are prone
to static charge. Not only your health but also your sofa will
profit from sufficient humidity, especially during the winter.
COLOR DIFFERENCES - When reordering, consider the
inevitable color differences in fabrics. Fabric colors are
slightly different in every production and every fabric fades
over time.
DECLORATION - Note that fabrics may stain onto other
fabrics. Jeans is made in a way that during "stone wash"
some pigments dissolve. This also happens when wearing
jeans. Especially if your sofa's cover is made from light fabrics
you want check whether these types of clothing stain.
Reversely, furniture fabrics may also slightly stain. Don't
place your sofa right in front of a wall and check staining
traits using a white tissue - especially with red upholstery
fabrics. If the sofa does stain, vacuum it with low suction or
treat its contact areas with a cloth soaked in vinegar water
(50/50).
4.1 - 4.2 - 4.3 - 4.4 - 4.5 - 4.6 - 4.7
31

4.2 FABRIC MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE OF UPHOLSTERY FABRICS
Furniture fabrics are exposed to dust and contact contamination
on a daily basis.
Do not allow for this contamination to become too intense -
cleaning will become more difficult and the results will become
less satisfactory. Vacuum clean your upholstery weekly. Choose
low suction and use your vacuum cleaner's special upholstery
nozzle. This weekly maintenance is especially important with
light fabrics.
(SEMI) ANNUAL BASIC CLEANING
Damp clean your upholstery one to two times a year to remove
oily and greasy dirt particles. Leave this "basic cleaning" to a
specialist for upholstery treatment.
If you want to do the cleaning yourself, please only use foam for
upholstered furniture and carefully read the instructions for use.
Test each product on a hidden area and check the result after
complete drying.
CAUTION
Possible damage to the covers
We do not give Warranty for damages caused by improper
basic cleaning. A specialist for upholstery cleaning
should remove stub-born stains since stain removers usually
contain aggressive chemicals which may damage your
upholstery fabrics permanently.
32

PILLOW COVERS
If your set comes with lose back or decorative cushions, you can
dry-clean most covers. Do not ever dry-clean covers made of
leather or synthetic leather.
Please see the care label on the inside of your cushion before
dry-cleaning it.

How to remove stains from Q2-Hitex covers:
Household stains containing fat and protein:
▶▶
Prepare a solution of warm water and mild detergent -
for light-coloured coatings, the addition of commercially
available stain removers may be helpful - and wash the
stain with plenty of water.
▶▶
▶▶
▶▶
▶▶
Dried, encrusted and sticky stains should be softened a little
beforehand. Do not pluck, as this could damage the pile.
Then remove all soap residues with plenty of clear water
Wipe dry with a cloth and let the cover dry at normal air
temperature, preferably overnight.
After stain removal, the cleaned surface reappears in its
original colour and therefore usually appears lighter than
the untreated surfaces, which may still be affected by contact
soiling. Clean also the other upholstery parts to get an
even colour fade.
Solvent-containing stains:
(Pen, marker, lipstick, nail polish).
▶▶
▶▶
▶▶
▶▶
▶▶
▶▶
Border the stain with acetone. This way, you can avoid that
the stains you are removing will set somewhere else.
Drizzle some acetone onto the stain and absorb with a
cloth.
Repeat this step until the stain is gone.
Then rinse with plenty of clear water.
Do not use the furniture again until the cover has completely
dried.
Do not scrape off/pick off encrusted stains (e.g. nail polish),
otherwise the pile may be damaged. Soften the encrustation
beforehand with the solvent

5.1
CAUTION:
For dismantling, please always have an assistant help you.
Do not dismantle your sofa by yourself!
When separating elements, please note: You will damage
the fittings, if you pull apart the elements in the same way
you put them together!
For transport, unscrew the connection pins, support legs
and legs and keep all small parts and screws stored in a
secure place.
Pack the upholstery elements in a way that they are protected
during transport. Always carry the elements with
the help of your assistant! In some staircases and during
loading and unloading, damages can easily occur which
may only be repairable with high expenditures.
If your sofa is equipped with electrical options, separate
the connectors first. Push the plug's locking lever and pull
apart plug and socket.
If you want to separate the upholstery elements, do not
simply pull them apart! With the help of your assistant (one
of you in front, the other in the back), lift the LEFT element
(viewed from the front) by 2cm and separate it slowly from
the right element. Please do not use force in order not to
damage the connecting fittings!
