- Prepare the Crib: Ensure your crib is empty and the mattress support is set to the lowest position.
- Remove Front Rail: Carefully remove the front rail of your crib according to your crib's original assembly instructions. Keep all hardware from the crib's front rail, as some may be reused.
- Attach Toddler Rail: Align the DaVinci Toddler Bed Conversion Kit rail with the existing holes on the crib's end panels.
- Secure Hardware: Using the provided hardware (or hardware from your original crib's front rail, if applicable and specified in your crib's manual), securely attach the toddler rail to the crib's end panels. Do not overtighten.
- Verify Stability: Once attached, gently shake the toddler bed to ensure all connections are secure and stable.

6. Operating and Usage
Once converted, the toddler bed provides a lower side rail, allowing your child to independently enter and exit the bed while still offering a barrier to prevent accidental falls during sleep. Ensure the mattress fits snugly within the bed frame without gaps.
7. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or strong chemicals that could damage the finish.
- Regular Checks: Periodically inspect all screws and bolts to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
- Storage: If disassembling for storage, keep all hardware in a secure bag and store in a dry place.
8. Troubleshooting
- Loose Rail: If the toddler rail feels loose, check all connecting hardware and tighten securely. Do not overtighten.
- Difficulty Aligning Holes: Ensure you are using the correct hardware and that the crib's end panels are properly aligned. Refer to your original crib manual for specific instructions on removing the front rail.
- Missing Parts: If any parts are missing, do not attempt to substitute with non-original parts. Contact DaVinci customer support.
