1. Important Safety Information
Please read these instructions carefully before first use and keep them for future reference. Your child's safety is paramount.
- Inspect the pacifier carefully before each use. Pull the pacifier in all directions. Discard at the first sign of damage or weakness.
- Only use pacifier holders that are compliant with EN 12586. Never attach other ribbons or cords to a pacifier, as they could strangle your child.
- Do not leave a pacifier in direct sunlight or near a heat source, or leave it in disinfectant (sterilizing solution) for longer than recommended, as this may weaken the nipple.
- Do not dip the pacifier in sweet substances or medicine, as this can lead to tooth decay.
- Replace pacifiers after one to two months of use for hygiene and safety reasons.

6. Troubleshooting
Water in Nipple After Cleaning
It is possible for water to enter the nipple during washing or sterilization. To remove trapped water, gently squeeze the nipple while shaking the pacifier. Ensure all water is expelled before giving the pacifier to your baby.
Baby Not Accepting Pacifier
Some babies may take time to adjust to a pacifier. Try offering it during calm moments or when your baby is already partially soothed. Ensure the pacifier is the correct size for your baby's age range (6-18 months for this model).
