6. Maintenance
To keep your Dripex playpen clean and in good condition:
- Cleaning: Wipe the playpen surfaces with a damp cloth, then follow with a dry cloth to remove any moisture. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
- Storage: The playpen is designed for easy folding and compact storage. To fold, unlock the connectors and collapse the panels. This maximizes space saving when not in use or for transport.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your playpen, consider the following:
- Playpen Instability: Ensure all panel connectors are fully engaged and locked. Verify that the upgraded suction cups are firmly pressed onto a clean, smooth surface. Uneven surfaces may reduce suction effectiveness.
- Difficulty Connecting/Disconnecting Panels: Check for any debris or misalignment in the connectors. Apply gentle pressure and ensure the top locking mechanism is fully disengaged when disconnecting.
- Gate Malfunction: Ensure the gate is properly aligned with the frame. Check the gear-lock mechanism for any obstructions.
