Setup and Assembly
The bath tub requires minimal assembly. The mesh sling is typically found on the back of the package, contained within a plastic bag with instructions.
- For Newborns (0-4 months):
- Attach the mesh sling to the designated clips on the tub. Ensure all clips are securely fastened. The sling cradles the newborn, providing support and comfort.

- For Infants (4-9 months):
- Remove the mesh sling. Position the infant in the reclined side of the tub. This side features a comfortable recline and a padded headrest for support. A specially designed bump helps prevent sliding.

Operating Instructions
Always ensure the tub is placed on a stable, flat surface, either within a larger bathtub or a sink, depending on the stage of use and available space. Never leave a child unattended in the bath tub.
Water Temperature
Before placing your child in the tub, always check the water temperature. The ideal water temperature for bathing a baby is between 90°F (32°C) and 100°F (38°C). A special drain plug changes color to alert parents if the water is too hot.
Draining the Tub
The tub features a drain plug at the bottom for easy water removal. Simply open the plug to drain the water after use. Alternatively, the tub can be tipped to empty its contents.

- Cleaning the Sling: The mesh sling is machine washable and dryable. Refer to the care label on the sling for specific washing instructions.
- Drying: Allow all components to air dry completely after cleaning to prevent mildew. The anti-slip pads are mildew-resistant.
