Assembly Instructions

General Assembly Requirements

IMPORTANT: To ensure safe operation of your playard, please follow these instructions carefully. Keep these instructions for future reference.

IMPORTANT: Before assembly and each use, inspect this product for damaged hardware, loose joints, missing parts, or sharp edges. NEVER use if any parts are missing or broken.

IMPORTANT: Adult assembly is required.

Playard 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

Top rails must be fully erected before lowering the center.
Pull up one rail at a time, holding one hand on each side of the rail, and pull up sharply. Do not pull from the middle where the center latch release is located.
Ensure both tubes latch in place and each rail is rigid.
IMPORTANT: The handle located in the center of the playard floor MUST remain raised (approximately 45.7 cm or 18 inches) while locking the side rails in place. If the center is not raised, the rails will NOT lock.
If you experience difficulty and one side of the rail locks but the other does not, unlock the rail by squeezing the release in the center and try again.

Step 3: Lock the Center Mechanism

Once all four (4) top rails are locked in place, push down on the center handle.
The center mechanism will automatically lock in place.
IMPORTANT: Test each top rail by pushing down slightly to confirm each is rigid and securely in place before use.

Step 4: Place the Mattress

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

Step 5: Secure the Mattress

Insert 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.

Step 6: Operate the Wheels/Brakes

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

Folding the Playard

Step 7: Prepare for Folding

Release the Velcro® straps holding the mattress from underneath the playard floor or the 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 that they nearly touch.

Step 8: Release 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.

Step 9: Gather and Wrap

Gather four (4) corners and center all together tightly.
Wrap the mattress around the playard frame with the padded side facing inward.

Step 10: Secure for Storage

Secure the hooks 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 so that the handle comes through the opening between each side of the zipper.

Bassinet Assembly

ATTENTION: The playard must be fully assembled and securely locked before installing or using the bassinet feature. You will need to remove the mattress from the bottom of the playard to use inside your bassinet.

Step 11: Position 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.

Step 12: Attach Mattress Support Tubes

These tubes must be lined up with the holes in the front frame assembly.
Insert both assembled Mattress Support Tubes into the loops provided on the bottom of the bassinet.

Step 13: Place and Secure Mattress in Bassinet

Place the mattress into the bassinet with the padded side facing upward.
Fasten tabs underneath the mattress to secure it in place.

To Remove Bassinet: Remove mattress, remove canopy, unsnap all clips, and lift the bassinet.

Diaper Stacker Assembly

Step 14: Connect Diaper Stacker

Connect the diaper stacker to the playard by sliding the two (2) connecting clips over an open portion of the top rail of the playard.
NOTE: Diaper stacker can only be installed on open sides of the playard where the connecting clips can easily be attached without interfering with other features.

Mobile Assembly

ATTENTION: A crib mobile is intended for visual stimulation and not to be grasped by the child. If attached to the crib or playard, remove when baby begins to push up on hands and knees. If designed for wall/ceiling mounting, place out of reach. Always attach all provided fasteners tightly. DO NOT add additional strings/straps. DO NOT attach the mobile with a child in the playard or bassinet.

Step 15: Assemble Mobile Lower Arm

Insert the Mobile Lower Arm (a) into the Mobile Arm Holder (b) until they lock together.

Step 16: Assemble Mobile Upper Arm

Insert the Mobile Upper Curved Arm (c) into the Mobile Lower Arm (a, b) until locked together.

Step 17: Attach Tri-shaped Arm and Toys

Snap the Mobile Tri-shaped Arm (d) onto the end of the Upper Curved Arm (a, b, c).
Connect each of the three Toys (e) to the mobile by threading the string into the slot at the end of each arm.

Step 18: Attach Mobile to Playard

Insert the bottom of the Mobile Arm into the frame of the playard.
