Introduction
The Tutti Bambini CoZee XL is a versatile 2-in-1 travel cot designed to grow with your child from birth up to approximately 2 years of age. It functions as a next-to-me crib for newborns and easily converts into a larger cot as your child grows. This manual provides essential information for the safe and proper assembly, operation, and maintenance of your CoZee XL.
Key features include 6 height levels, a drop-side function for co-sleeping, an incline function to assist with reflux and congestion, and an integrated storage shelf.
Safety Information
Always prioritize your child's safety. Read and understand all instructions before assembly and use. Keep this manual for future reference.
- Ensure all locking mechanisms are engaged before placing your child in the cot.
- Never leave your child unattended in the cot.
- Do not use the cot if any parts are broken, torn, or missing. Contact Tutti Bambini for replacement parts.
- Only use the mattress supplied with the cot. Do not add a second mattress, as this can cause suffocation.
- When using in co-sleeping mode, ensure the crib is securely attached to the adult bed and there are no gaps between the crib and the mattress.
- Regularly inspect the cot for any signs of wear or damage.
- Be aware of potential hazards from cords, blinds, or other items near the cot that could pose a strangulation risk.
- When adjusting the height or incline, ensure your child is not in the cot.
- Important Note on Mattress Placement: Some users have reported discomfort due to internal buckles beneath the mattress. Ensure the corn fibre mattress is placed flat and securely, and regularly check that no underlying components cause unevenness or pressure points for your child. If necessary, consult the manufacturer for guidance on mattress fit and buckle management.

Setup and Assembly
The CoZee XL is designed for straightforward assembly. Follow these steps carefully:

3. Inserting the Mattress
Place the corn fibre crib mattress firmly into the base of the crib. Ensure it fits snugly without any gaps around the edges. Refer to the safety information regarding mattress placement.
4. Converting to Cot Mode (for older children)
When your child outgrows the crib mode (typically around 6 months), the CoZee XL can be expanded into a larger cot. This involves attaching the cot expansion frames. Follow the specific instructions provided with the expansion kit for secure attachment and transformation.

Operating Instructions
Height Adjustment (6 Levels)
The CoZee XL features 6 height levels (49-64+cm) to align with your bed height for co-sleeping or to adjust for your convenience. To adjust, locate the height adjustment mechanism on the side of the frame, typically marked with numbers 1-6. Press the release buttons and slide the crib up or down to the desired level until it clicks securely into place. Ensure both sides are at the same height unless using the incline function.

Drop-Side Function for Co-Sleeping
For safe co-sleeping, the CoZee XL includes a drop-side function. This allows you to lower one side of the crib to easily access your baby without reaching over. To operate, disengage the side locking mechanism and gently lower the side. Always ensure the crib is securely attached to your bed when using this function, and the drop-side is fully lowered to prevent gaps.

Incline Function for Reflux & Congestion
To help soothe symptoms of reflux or congestion, you can set one side of the crib slightly higher than the other, creating a gentle incline. Use the height adjustment mechanism to set one end to a higher level than the other. Ensure the incline is gentle and safe for your child.

Maintenance and Care
Proper care will extend the life of your CoZee XL:
- Cleaning Fabric Parts: The sofa cover (when converted to sofa mode) can be removed and washed according to the care label instructions. For other fabric parts, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Allow to air dry completely.
- Cleaning Frame: Wipe down the frame and plastic components with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Mattress Care: The corn fibre mattress should be kept clean and dry. Follow any specific cleaning instructions provided with the mattress.
- Storage: When not in use, fold the CoZee XL and store it in its travel bag in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your CoZee XL, refer to the following common solutions:
