Unzip the carry bag and remove the Playard frame. Undo fastening straps and set the mattress aside. Do not push the center down yet.

Step 2: Erect Top Rails

Pull up each top rail one at a time, holding both sides, until it latches securely. Ensure both tubes latch and the rail is rigid. The center must be raised while locking rails. If a rail doesn't lock, unlock and try again.
