Safety Information

WARNING: To prevent choking hazards, always inspect the pacifier before each use. Pull the pacifier in all directions. Discard at the first signs of damage or weakness. Do not tie the pacifier around a child's neck as it presents a strangulation danger. For hygiene reasons, replace pacifiers after 4 weeks of use.

• Clean the pacifier thoroughly before each use.
• Never dip the nipple in sweet substances, as this can lead to tooth decay.
• Store pacifiers in a dry, covered container.
