Read all instructions before assembling the cot. Keep the manual for future use.
Parents should ensure a safe environment for the child by checking regularly, before placing the child in the product, that every component is properly and securely in place.
Do not use this cot if you cannot exactly follow the accompanying instructions.
Infants can suffocate on soft bedding. Never add a pillow or comforter. Never place additional padding under an infant.
To reduce the risk of SIDS, pediatricians recommend healthy infants be placed on their backs to sleep, unless otherwise advised by your physician.
Strangulation Hazard: Strings can cause strangulation! Do not place items with a string around a child's neck, such as hood strings or pacifier cords. Do not place cords, straps, or similar items that could become wound around the child's neck in or near this cot. Do not suspend strings over a cot or attach strings to toys.
To help prevent strangulation, tighten all fasteners. A child can trap parts of the body or clothing on loose fasteners.
DO NOT place a cot near a window where cords from blinds or drapes may strangle a child. Do not place this cot near a window or a patio door where a child could reach the cord of a blind or curtain and be strangled.
Fall Hazard: When a child is able to pull to a standing position, set the mattress to the lowest position and remove bumper pads, large toys and other objects that could serve as steps for climbing out.
Do not use this cot if the child is able to climb out unaided or is taller than 35 in. (89cm).
Check this product for damaged hardware, loose joints, loose bolts or other fasteners, missing parts or sharp edges before and after assembly and frequently during use. Securely tighten loose bolts and other fasteners. DO NOT use cot if any parts are missing, damaged or broken. DO NOT substitute parts. Contact Ubabub International Pty Ltd (for Australia) / Designer Baby Brands Limited (for New Zealand) for replacement parts and instructional literature if needed.
DO NOT use a water mattress with this cot.
For cots equipped with teething rails, replace teething rail if damaged, cracked or loose.
If refinishing, use a non-toxic finish specified for children's products.
Never use plastic shipping bags or other plastic films as mattress covers because they can cause suffocation.
Please do NOT remove any wood screws in the normal disassembly of the cot.
Infants can suffocate in gaps between cot sides when used with a mattress that is too small.
Follow warnings on all products in a cot.
Ensure that the sides are properly latched or locked in place when the cot is occupied.
The mattress used with this cot should not be more than 15cm thick and should be of such length with width that the gap between the mattress and the sides of the cot is no more than 3cm when the mattress is pushed into the corner of the cot.
Place cot at a reasonable distance from curtains, blinds, heater and power points.
Keep medication, string, elastic, small toys or small items, such as money, out of reach from any position in the cot.

Warning: To prevent falls, the mattress base of this cot should be adjusted to the lowest position before the child can sit up.

Recommended Mattress Size: This cot has been manufactured for use with a mattress which measures 690 mm wide by 1310 mm long and 150 mm (or less) in thickness. The width and length are specified because it is important that the gaps between the mattress and the sides and ends of the cot will not exceed 40 mm when the mattress is pushed to one side or end, and 20mm when the mattress is centred in the cot. The thickness of the mattress has been specified to ensure that the depth of the cot is greater than 500 mm with the mattress base in the lower position to minimize the risk of a child climbing or falling out of the cot.

Storage: Pine woods exchange moisture with the air adjusting to major changes in room temperature and humidity. Therefore, it is best to place your furniture away from heating or air-conditioning vents. Sunlight is not friendly to solid wood furniture and prolonged direct exposure to harsh sunlight can discolor the finish. Be careful not to place your furniture in direct sunlight for extended periods of time. As with all your fine furniture, blot up spills immediately.

Care and Cleaning: Do not scratch or chip the finish. Do not use abrasive chemicals for cleaning. Clean with mild soap on a soft rag. Rinse and dry thoroughly. If you ever refinish this furniture, be sure to use only a non-toxic finish specified for children's products. If you choose to refinish this furniture, the warranty will be voided.

Warning: Strangulation Hazard Failure to follow these warnings and the assembly instructions could result in serious injury or death from entrapment or strangulation. Openings in and between bed parts can entrap head and neck of a small child. NEVER use bed with children younger than 15 months. ALWAYS follow assembly instructions. NEVER place bed near windows where cords from blinds or drapes may strangle a child. NEVER suspend strings over bed. NEVER place items with a string, cord, or ribbon, such as hood strings or pacifier cords, around a child's neck. These items may catch on bed parts.

The intended user's minimum age must be at least 15 months old and maximum weight must not exceed 50 lbs (22.7 kg).
