!Discontinue using your bassinet if child weighs over

15 lbs. (6.8 kg), can roll over, or can push up on hands and knees.

!DO NOT store the bassinet in the Pack ’N Play while in use. Store rails in pocket in the bassinet.

Avoiding Suffocation Hazards

!Unlike cribs that have rigid sides, the Pack ’N Play and the bassinet have flexible sides. As a result, the Pack ’N Play mattress is specially designed to prevent suffocation. The Pack ’N Play mattress has a solid base, a certain length and width, and is less than one inch thick in order to meet safety standards. Using a thicker or a different sized mattress may allow a child’s head to get between mattress and the side of the Pack ’N Play or bassinet causing suffocation.

!To help prevent suffocation from entrapment,

USE ONLY THE MATTRESS PROVIDED BY GRACO. Never use additional mattress or padding.

!Never use plastic shipping bags or other plastic film as mattress covers not sold and intended for that purpose. They can cause suffocation.

!Do not use a water mattress with the Pack ’N Play.

Avoiding Strangulation Hazards

!Strings and cords can cause strangulation. Keep strings and cords away from child.

!Do not place the Pack ’N Play near a window where cords from blinds or drapes can strangle a child.

!Do not hang strings on or over the Pack ’N Play.

!Do not place items with a string around a child’s neck, such as hood strings, pacifier cords, etc.

!Do not attach strings to toys.

have become rigid.

until they are rigid.

FOR SMOOTH SETUP and takedown, it’s important to remember one thing: the center of the floor must be at least halfway up when locking OR unlocking rails (see picture below). Therefore:

!When setting up, lock rails BEFORE lowering center.

!When taking down, raise center halfway BEFORE unlocking rails.

If top rails do not latch, lift the center of the floor higher. Center of floor must be at least halfway up for the latches to catch properly.
