5.1 Adjusting Recline Positions

The Loa bouncer offers two comfortable recline positions. To adjust the recline:

2. Press the release buttons or levers and gently move the seat to the desired position. Ensure it locks securely into place.

5.2 Rocking and Fixed Modes

The Loa bouncer features a 2-in-1 design, allowing for both rocking and fixed modes.

• Rocking Mode: To enable rocking, ensure the stabilizing feet are retracted or in the rocking position. The bouncer will gently sway with your baby's movements or a gentle push.
• Fixed Mode: To convert to a stationary seat, extend the stabilizing feet or engage the locking mechanism to prevent rocking. This mode is ideal for feeding or when your baby is resting.
