5. Operating Instructions

The Tutti Bambini Rio Chest Changer is designed for ease of use and functionality.

• Changing Top: The integrated changing top provides a dedicated and elevated surface for changing your baby. Always use a suitable changing mat (not included) on the top for comfort and hygiene. Ensure your baby is always supervised while on the changing top.
