Care and Maintenance

Cleaning

Wipe the unit with a clean, damp cloth. Do not immerse in water. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. The plush toys can be surface-cleaned with a mild soap and water solution.

Battery Replacement

Replace batteries when the unit's functions become weak or inconsistent. Always use fresh AA (LR6) alkaline batteries. Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of batteries.

Troubleshooting

• Unit does not turn on:
  Ensure batteries are installed correctly with proper polarity. Replace with fresh batteries.
• No sound or weak sound:
  Check battery levels and replace if necessary. Adjust the volume setting.
• Mobile does not rotate:
  Ensure the unit is in crib mobile mode and the motion button is activated. Check for any obstructions to the mobile's movement. Verify battery levels.
• Sound sensor is too sensitive or not sensitive enough:
  The sound sensor is designed to detect baby's cries. Environmental background noise may trigger it. Ensure the unit is placed in a quiet area for optimal performance. There is no adjustable sensitivity setting.
