Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning will help maintain the high chair's appearance and hygiene.

• Seat and Back Cushions: The cushions are easily wipeable. Use a damp cloth with mild soap and water to clean. Ensure they are completely dry before re-use to prevent mold growth.
• Tray: The tray is designed for easy cleaning. It can be wiped down with a damp cloth or washed by hand with soap and water. The recess in the tray can contain over 7 ounces of spilled liquid, making cleanup easier.
• Harness Straps: The canvas material of the straps can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, the straps may be unhooked and hand-washed with mild detergent. Allow to air dry completely.
• Wooden Components: Wipe wooden parts with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the wood finish.
• General Inspection: Periodically check all screws, bolts, and connections to ensure they are tight and secure.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your OXO Tot Sprout High Chair, refer to the following common solutions:

• Difficulty Adjusting Seat/Footrest: Ensure the release mechanisms are fully engaged when attempting to slide components. Do not force adjustments; if resistance is met, re-check the mechanism.
• Harness Straps Seem Loose: Adjust the harness straps to ensure a snug fit for your child. The straps are designed to be adjustable for various sizes.
• Stains on Cushions/Straps: For stubborn stains, a gentle scrub with a soft brush and mild soap may be necessary. For cushions, ensure immediate cleaning after spills to prevent staining. For straps, consider unhooking and hand-washing.
• Chair Instability: Verify that the high chair is on a flat, even surface. Check all leg connections and ensure they are securely fastened.
