Assembly Instructions
Step 1: Assembling the Cot Frame
Open the bag zipper and pull the cot out. Unfasten the Velcro straps of the folding base. Pull out the cot and other items. To unfold the frame (1), place it with wheels down (Diagram A). Spread the corners to grip the central parts of the sides. Pull the shorter sides upwards until they lock (Diagram B). Grip the central parts of the longer sides and pull upwards until they lock (Diagram C). Push down the central part of the base (Diagram D). The frame will open completely and the cot will lock into place (Diagram E).
Important: Ensure all four central locking mechanisms on the sides are engaged. The side locking mechanism will not function if the cot base is not properly positioned. If the hinged floor (3) is not installed, install it using the zipper (Diagram F) and secure it with the buckle (Diagram G). Insert the support tubes (4) into the holes of the suspended floor (Diagrams H and I). Place the base (2) inside the cot (Diagram J).
Securing the Base: Attach the straps under the base. Start by opening the entrance zipper. Attach the straps to the designated points under the floor and then to the opposite side. To facilitate attaching the other side, it is recommended to partially open the zipper around the floor. Insert the straps into the holes and secure them with the Velcro fasteners under the floor (Diagrams K, L, M, N, O). Close the zipper around the floor and secure it with the buckle (Diagram P).
Step 2: Installing the Changing Table
Insert the mounting rails (7) into the changing table frame (6) until the locking button clicks into the frame (Diagrams R and S). To ease rail installation, loosen the changing table's Velcro straps and close all latches after securing the frame. Place the changing table by pressing it firmly against the cot frame until it is fully secured on the sides (Diagram T). The plastic clip of the pocket should be attached to the cot frame (Diagram U).
Step 3: Attaching the Panel with Baskets and Hooks
Insert the hooks into the holes on the panel (8) and then attach them to the cot frame (Diagrams W and X).
Step 4: Assembling the Toy Arm
Place the arm (9) onto the rotating mechanism head in the direction of the arrow and rotate it 180° counter-clockwise (Diagrams Y and Z). Then, attach it to the base of the arm by placing it in the direction of the arrow and rotating counter-clockwise (Diagram AA). Install the plush toy holders and hang the toys on them (Diagrams AB and AC). Attach the arm to one of the four sides using the frame's attachment mechanism (Diagram AD).
WARNING: To prevent the arm from falling on the child, ensure it is correctly attached to the frame and is stable!
Step 5: Wheel Lock
The cot has wheel locks. To lock the wheels, press the brake lever. To release the lock, lift the brake lever (Diagram AE).
Step 6: Adjusting the Base Height
The cot base is height-adjustable. To lower the base, release the zipper fastener and the zipper located inside the cot, along with the central floor (Diagrams AF and AG). In the next step, release the base straps and place the folded base into the cot (Diagrams AH and AI). WARNING: For safety, secure the straps under the base (Diagram AJ). When the base is at its lowest level, the side entrance can be used (Diagram AK).
Step 7: Toy Arm Operation
The toy arm is powered by batteries: 3 x AA (LR6) 1.5V (not included). To install/replace batteries, unscrew the battery compartment cover with a Phillips screwdriver. Replace batteries, ensuring correct polarity, and close the compartment cover.
The arm has several buttons with the following functions:
- Button to turn on the light. The first press turns the light on, the second press reduces brightness. Pressing again turns the light off.
- Button to start the carousel. Pressing the button repeatedly stops the carousel.
- Pressing the button starts a series of soothing melodies with three volume levels. The fourth press turns off the melodies.
- Button to start the vibration function with three intensity levels. The fourth press turns the function off.

Disposal of Used Equipment
The crossed-out wheelie bin symbol ?️ on the device, packaging, or accompanying documents means the product must not be disposed of with other waste. Users are responsible for taking used equipment to designated collection points for proper recycling. Information on available WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) collection systems can be obtained from the point of sale or municipal/community office. Every household contributes to potential waste generation, as the device contains hazardous substances, mixtures, and components.
