4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Crib Mode
The crib mode is suitable for infants. The mattress support base can be adjusted to 3 different height positions. For newborns, the highest position is recommended for easier access. As your child grows and becomes more mobile, lower the mattress support to prevent them from climbing out.
- Highest Position: For infants who cannot push up on hands and knees.
- Middle Position: For infants who can push up on hands and knees but cannot sit unassisted.
- Lowest Position: For infants who can sit unassisted or pull themselves to a standing position.
4.2 Changing Table Use
The attached changing table provides a convenient space for diaper changes. Always use the included water-resistant changing pad and secure your child with the safety strap. Never leave your child unattended on the changing table.
