Assembly Instructions

1. Step 1: Prepare the Playard Frame

   Unzip the travel/storage bag and remove the playard frame. Undo the two (2) fasten straps and set the mattress aside. Do not push the center down yet.

   Diagram Description: Figure 1 shows the playard frame being removed from its bag, with straps visible.

2. Step 2: Erect the Top Rails

   Top rails must be fully erected before lowering the center. Pull up one rail at a time, holding each side firmly, and pull sharply upwards. Do not pull from the middle where the center latch release is located. Ensure both tubes latch in place and each rail is rigid.

   Diagram Description: Figure 2 illustrates pulling up a single top rail, showing how to grip it on both sides for proper leverage.

   IMPORTANT: The center must be raised while locking the rails. If one rail locks but the other does not, unlock the rail by squeezing the release in the center and try again.

3. Step 3: Lock the Center

   Once all four (4) top rails are locked in place, push down on the center handle. The center mechanism will rotate clockwise 90 degrees and automatically lock in place.

   Diagram Description: Figure 3a shows pushing down the center handle. Figure 3b shows the center mechanism locking.

   IMPORTANT: Test each top rail by pushing down slightly to confirm it is rigid and securely in place before use.

4. Step 4: Place the Mattress

   Place the mattress on the floor of the playard with the padded side facing up.

   Diagram Description: Figure 4 shows the mattress being placed inside the playard frame.

5. Step 5: Secure the Mattress

   Insert the two (2) Velcro® straps located on the underside of the mattress through the slots in the floor of each end of the playard. Fasten the hook and loop straps to the underside of the playard floor to prevent the mattress from moving.

   Diagram Description: Figure 5a shows the Velcro straps being threaded through the playard floor slots. Figure 5b shows the straps fastened underneath.

   IMPORTANT: The handle in the center of the playard floor MUST remain raised (approx. 45.7 cm or 18 inches) while locking the side rails. If the center is not raised, the rails will NOT lock. If you experience difficulty, contact Customer Service.

6. Step 6: Operate the Wheels

   To operate the brakes on the wheels, press downward on the brake levers. To release, lift upward on the lever.

   Diagram Description: Figure 6 illustrates pressing down on a brake lever to engage the brake and lifting it to release.

7. Step 7: Fold the Playard

   Release the two (2) Velcro® straps holding the mattress from underneath the playard floor or bassinet and set the mattress aside. Do not unlock top rails yet; the center of the floor must be raised before top rails will unlock.

   Rotate the center handle counter-clockwise 90 degrees and raise the center as high as the top rails. Gather the legs and wheels together towards the center as close as possible so they nearly touch.

   Diagram Description: Figure 7 shows rotating the center handle and gathering the legs and wheels for folding.

8. Step 8: Unlock and Fold Top Rails

   Locate the rail latch release in the center and bottom side of each rail. Squeeze the lever with two hands until the rail releases the two tubes, then push down. NOTE: If the top rail(s) do not release completely, DO NOT FORCE! Lift the center of the floor higher. Both tubes must be released for the top rail to fold.

   Diagram Description: Figure 8a shows locating and squeezing the latch release. Figure 8b shows pushing the rail down after release.

9. Step 9: Prepare Mattress for Storage

   Gather the four (4) corners and center them tightly. Wrap the mattress around the playard frame with the padded side facing inward. Secure the two (2) hook and loop straps by feeding them through the loops on the end of the mattress and folding them back onto themselves.

   Diagram Description: Figure 9 shows gathering the playard corners and wrapping the mattress.

10. Step 10: Store the Playard

    Secure the two (2) hook and loop straps by feeding them through the loops on the end of the mattress and folding them back onto themselves. Place the folded playard into the carry bag.

    Diagram Description: Figure 10 shows securing the mattress straps and placing the folded playard into the carry bag.

11. Step 11: Install the Bassinet

    Position the bassinet over and down into the fully assembled playard. Secure in place by pushing down firmly on each plastic support clip until all are snapped into place.

    Diagram Description: Figure 11 shows the bassinet being placed and secured into the playard frame.

    ATTENTION: Playard must be fully assembled and securely locked before installing or using the bassinet feature.

    IMPORTANT: Check that the Changing Table is correctly and securely installed BEFORE each use.

17. Step 16: Secure Changing Table to Playard Frame

    Locate the Velcro straps on the bottom of the changing table and on the inside of the playard side rails. Secure the changing table to the playard frame by fastening the Velcro straps on the underside of the changing table to the side rails of the playard frame.

    Diagram Description: Figures 16-18 illustrate locating the straps, flipping the table, and securing it with Velcro.

18. Step 17: Use Changing Table Restraint System

    Place child on changing table, ensuring hands and arms are clear of the restraint. Bring the restraint around the child's waist and clip the buckle ends together. Tighten the strap until it fits snugly but do not overtighten. To remove, unsnap the buckle.
