7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your HALO BassiNest, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

• Unit Not Powering On: Ensure the power cord is securely connected to both the bassinet and a working electrical outlet. Check if the outlet is functional.
• Smart Features Not Responding: Verify that the bassinet is properly connected to the mobile app via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi (if applicable). Ensure the app is updated to the latest version.
• Squeaking Noises: If you hear squeaking, particularly when lowering the side wall or swiveling, ensure all connections are secure and free of debris. A small amount of silicone-based lubricant (not oil-based) can be applied to moving parts if necessary, but avoid contact with baby's area.
• Stability Concerns: Double-check that the base legs are fully extended and locked into position. The bassinet should be on a flat, level surface.
• Baby Discomfort: Ensure the mattress pad is flat and properly positioned. Check the room temperature and baby's clothing to ensure comfort.
