Warnings These instructions detail the safe use, assembly and maintenance of your product:

• Follow manufacturer’s instructions at all times. Failure to follow these warnings and the instructions could result

in serious injury or death.

• Do not suspend strings, such as hood strings or pacifier cords, over a cot or attach strings to toys. String can wrap

around a child’s neck and choke them.

• To reduce the risks of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), pediatricians recommend healthy infants to be

placed on their backs to sleep – unless otherwise advised by your physician.

• Keep the cot clear of trailing cables or hanging cords.

• Never allow young children to play unsupervised in the vicinity of the cot.

• Only use the mattress supplied. Never use an extra mattress as this may cause a child to become trapped in the

gap between the extra mattress, and the side of the cot, and suffocate.

• Never leave children unattended.

• Do not leave anything in the cot such as toys that provide a foothold to enable the child to climb out.

• Do not use the cot near naked heat sources, bar heaters, open fires or exposed flames. Do not leave the

bassinette outdoors exposed to direct sunlight.

• Keep the cot clear of trailing cables and hanging cords.

• Keep medication and small items that a child could choke on away from the cot.

• Before using the cot please check and ensure all top rails are locked securely.
