Dismantle the cot, keeping the
bolts and nuts.
Detach the lower portion of the
foot end, including the short
panel. The upper sections will be
used as the bed ends.
Attach the mattress base rails to
the Head end, in the Mid position
and to the foot end in the upper
position,as shown, using the
60mm Bolts and Barrel Nuts, as
before. Replace the mattress
base.
Notice the 2 holes, bored in the
mattress rails (X). These are not a
manufacturing error, but to
enable the fitting of a Mothercare
bed guard. When used with the
bed guard, these holes must be
closer to the bottom of the rail
than the top.
care of your product
Periodically check all fittings to ensure that none have come loose.
The cot can be cleaned by wiping with a damp cloth and drying with a soft dry cloth.
Never clean with abrasive, ammonia based, bleach based, or spirit type cleaners.
Take care when handling or moving the cot. Careless handling can damage wooden
furniture.
safety notes
The lowest base position is the safest and should always be used as soon as the
baby is old enough to sit up.
Never leave anything inside the cot that could provide a foothold or present a risk
of suffocation or strangulation.
The thickness of the mattress chosen must not reduce the internal depth (from
mattress surface to the top of the side) to less than 500mm with the base in the
lowest position or 200mm with the base in the highest position. The leg of the cot
has a mark indicating this height.
All assembly fittings should always be tightened properly . Care should be taken
that no screws are loose, because the child could trap parts of the body or clothing,
(e.g. Strings, necklaces, ribbons for babies' dummies), which would pose a risk of
strangulation.
The mattress used with this cot should be no more than 30mm shorter or narrower
than the internal length or width of the cot.
Strong heat sources, e.g. open, electric or gas fires in the vicinity of the cot may be
dangerous if placed near the cot.
