Graco Silhouette Swing Problem Solving, Swing won’t operate, Seat doesn’t swing very high

Problem Solving

Swing won’t operate:

1.No batteries in swing.

2.Batteries dead.

3.Speed setting too low.

4.Batteries in backwards — check “+” and “-”.

5.Corrosion on battery terminals. Rotate batteries in place against terminals, or clean with sandpaper or steel wool if corrosion is severe.

6.Baby leaning too far forward.

7.Baby grabbing swing legs. (Discontinue use.)

8.Seat not pushed high enough for a good start.

9.Protective device activated. (Turn off motor, wait 3 minutes, then restart swing.)

Seat doesn’t swing very high:

1.Control setting too low.

2.Blanket hanging down, causing increased wind resistance.

3.Batteries too weak.

4.Baby leaning too far forward.

5.Baby too heavy or too active. (Discontinue use.)

6.Soft carpet (swings higher on hard floors).
