GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
•Read these instructions carefully and follow them in detail to ensure that the safety features of the bassinet and crib are not compromised. Keep these instructions for later use. Save the Allen key for later use. Re-tighten all screws 2-3 weeks after assembly.
•When assembling the bassinet or crib do not tighten the screws until the whole unit is assembled. Doing this ensures you the easiest way to assemble.
•Make sure the bassinet or crib is placed on a level and stable surface. After assembly, check and tighten all fit- tings and screws. Loose screw connections or parts could lead to the baby trapping a body part, or clothing (e.g. strings, necklaces, ribbons for babies’ dummies, etc.) which would pose a risk of strangulation.
•Make sure there are no loose parts in the bassinet or
crib which a child could swallow, as this could lead to suffocation or choking. Make sure there are no loose parts in the crib that could provide a foothold for your child.
•Never place the bassinet or crib by an open fire or source of strong heat such as electric bar fires, gas fires, etc. due to the risk of fire.
•Do not use the bassinet or crib if any parts are dam- aged or missing.
•Place the bassinet or crib in reasonable distance from curtains, blinds, heaters and power points.
•To ensure a safe environment for the child, check regu- larly, before placing the child in the bassinet or crib, that every component is properly and securely in place.
Ticking: Washable at 60°C (140°F). Stretch while wet. Do not tumble dry.
Foam: Can be heat treated in 100°C (212°F) and washed/flushed in boiling water. After a pee accident, the mattress should always be washed; pee is excel- lent growth media for fungi.
WOOD: Wipe with a clean damp cloth, wipe off excess of water. We do not recommend any use of detergent. Colours may change if they are exposed to the sun.
NORMAL USE: Always remove the bedlinen in the morning and let the bed and bedlinen ”cool down” and dry up.

•The crib, including side rails, must be fully erected prior to use.
•Suffocation Hazard – To help prevent suffocation from entrapment, use only mattress provided by the manufac- turer. Never use additional mattress or padding.
•Strings can cause strangulation! DO NOT place items with a string around a child’s neck such as hood strings or paci- fier cords. DO NOT suspend strings over crib or attach strings to toys.
•Discontinue use of crib when child is able to climb out or reaches the height of 35’’.

•When child is able to pull to standing position, set mat- tress to lowest adjustment position and remove bumper pads, large toys, and other object that could serve as step for climbing out.
•Before each usage or assembly, inspect crib for damaged hardware, loose joints, missing parts or sharp edges. DO NOT use crib if any parts are missing or broken. Ask your dealer or write to STOKKE for replacement parts and instructional literature if needed. DO NOT substitute parts.

•Make sure to keep medication, string, elastic, small toys or small items such as money out of reach from any position in the crib
