Assembly Instructions
Follow these steps carefully for safe assembly.
Step 1: Prepare the Playard Frame
Unzip the storage bag and remove the Playard frame. Undo the fasten straps and set the mattress aside. Do not push the center down yet.
Step 2: Erect the Top Rails
Pull up each top rail one at a time, holding both sides, until it locks securely into place. Ensure all rails are rigid. The center handle must remain raised (approx. 45.7 cm / 18 inches) for the rails to lock. If a rail does not lock, ensure the center handle is fully raised and try again.
Step 3: Secure the Center
Once all four top rails are locked, push down on the center handle. The center mechanism will automatically lock. Test each top rail by pushing down slightly to confirm it is rigid and secure.
Step 4: Place the Mattress
Place the mattress on the playard floor with the padded side facing up. Insert the Velcro® straps from the underside of the mattress through the slots in the playard floor and fasten them to prevent the mattress from moving.
Step 5: Operate the Brakes
To engage the brakes on the wheels, press downward on the brake levers. To release, lift upward on the lever.
Step 6: Folding the Playard
Release the Velcro® straps holding the mattress. Do not unlock the top rails yet; the center of the floor must be raised first. Raise the center as high as the top rails, gathering the legs and wheels towards the center. Locate the rail latch release in the center and bottom side of each rail. Squeeze the lever until the rail releases the tubes, then push down. If rails do not release, lift the center higher. Gather all four corners and the center tightly. Wrap the mattress around the frame with the padded side inward. Secure the mattress with the provided straps. Place the folded playard into the carry bag.
Step 7: Bassinet Assembly (Optional)
To use the bassinet feature, first ensure the playard is fully assembled and locked. Remove the mattress from the playard. Position the bassinet over and down into the playard, securing it with the plastic support clips until they snap into place. Insert the Mattress Support Tubes into the loops on the bottom of the bassinet. Place the mattress into the bassinet with the padded side upward.
Step 8: Diaper Stacker Assembly
Connect the Diaper Stacker to the playard's top rail by sliding the connecting clips over an open portion of the rail. Ensure it is securely attached without interfering with other features.
Step 9: Mobile Assembly
Assemble the mobile by connecting the lower arm to the arm holder, then the upper curved arm, and finally the tri-shaped arm. Attach the toys to the arms. Insert the assembled mobile arm into the playard frame.
Step 10: Music Center Assembly and Operation
Attach the Music Center to the playard's long rail. The Music Center requires 4 AA batteries. Unscrew the battery door, install batteries as shown, and re-secure the door. Use the buttons to select music, nature sounds, or sleep sounds. Two buttons control the unit's volume. The night light can be activated by pressing the NIGHT LIGHT button.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Use only household mild soap and warm water for cleaning. DO NOT USE BLEACH. DO NOT MACHINE WASH.
