4. Setup
Follow these steps for proper assembly and installation of your bed rail guard:
- Assemble the Frame: Connect the various frame bars and connectors as indicated in the assembly guide. Ensure all connections are secure.
- Attach the Mesh Fabric: Slide the mesh fabric panel onto the assembled frame, ensuring it is taut and properly aligned.
- Adjust Height: The bed rail features adjustable height settings to accommodate different mattress thicknesses. Select the appropriate height for your mattress. The adjustable height ranges from approximately 26 to 34.7 inches.

5. Operating the Bed Rail
The NUTIKAS bed rail guard is designed for ease of use with its swing-down feature:
- Swing-Down Function: To lower the bed rail, locate the buttons on each side of the rail. Press these buttons simultaneously to release the locking mechanism, allowing the rail to swing down smoothly. This feature enables easy access for your child to get in and out of bed, and for parents to attend to the child without obstruction.
