IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTION

IMPORTANT!
KEEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE AND USE.

WARNING: FALL AND SUFFOCATION HAZARD

FALL HAZARD
Babies can fall through a wide leg opening or out of the carrier.

Before each use, make sure all fasteners are secure.
Take special care when leaning or walking.
Never bend at the waist; bend at the knees.
DO NOT USE the carrier for babies weighing less than 7 lbs (3.2 kg).
Only use this carrier for babies between 7 lbs (3.2 kg) and 45 lbs (20 kg).
To prevent hazards from falling, ensure that your child is securely positioned in the carrier.
NEVER LEAVE the ILD unattended in or with the Ergobaby™ carrier.

SUFFOCATION HAZARD – Babies under 4 months can suffocate in this product if their face is pressed tight against their bodies.

Do not strap the baby too tight against your body.
Allow room for head movement.
Keep the baby’s face free from obstructions at all times.
Do not let the baby sleep in the front outward-facing carry position.

WARNING:

Constantly monitor your child and ensure that the mouth and nose are unobstructed.
For pre-term, low birthweight babies and children with medical conditions, seek advice from a health professional before using this product.
Ensure that your child’s chin is not resting on their chest as his breathing may be restricted, which could lead to suffocation.
Your balance may be adversely affected by your movement and that of your child.
Take care when bending or leaning forward or sideways.
Do not allow the baby to insert fingers into a buckle opening.
Never leave the baby unattended in or with the Ergobaby™ carrier.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF ERGOBABY CARRIER

Read all instructions before assembling and using the soft carrier. Only use this carrier for babies between 7 lbs (3.2 kg) and 45 lbs (20 kg). In addition, the carrier is not to be used with babies less than 7 lbs (3.2 kg) and less than 20 inches (50.8 cm) tall. BABY MUST FACE TOWARDS YOU UNTIL HE OR SHE CAN HOLD HEAD UPRIGHT. Never leave the baby unattended in or with the Ergobaby™ carrier. Never use a soft carrier when balance or mobility is impaired because of exercise, drowsiness, or medical conditions.

Never use a soft carrier while engaging in activities such as cooking and cleaning which involve a heat source or exposure to chemicals. Never wear a soft carrier while driving or being a passenger in a vehicle. Be careful when drinking hot beverages to avoid spilling hot drinks onto the baby while using the carrier. Never unbuckle the waist belt while the baby is in the carrier. Be aware that as the baby becomes more active, the child has more risk of falling out of the carrier. Only carry one child at a time in the baby carrier. Never use/wear more than one carrier at a time. The baby’s chin should NEVER rest on the baby’s chest because this partially closes the baby’s airway. There should always be at least two fingers width clearance before the baby’s chin. The wearer must be sure that the baby’s airway is clear and that the baby is breathing normally at ALL TIMES. Premature infants, infants with respiratory problems, and infants under 4 months are at greatest risk of suffocation. Ensure proper placement of baby in product including leg placement.

The baby’s position should be checked regularly to make sure that the baby is properly seated in the carrier, centred with legs in a spread-squat position and head upright and not slumping downward or to the side. Your baby’s head should be supported by the neck cushion until the baby demonstrates strong and consistent head and neck control. Baby’s arms, legs and feet need to be observed regularly while in the carrier to ensure that they are not constricted by the carrier. To eliminate possible compression of the abdomen and to assist in digestion and absorption, it is recommended not to use a carrier for about 30 minutes after nursing or bottle feeding. The carrier must be worn in such a way that a baby can move his head without pressing his face onto your body.

When using the hood, please ensure that the hood is NOT completely covering the baby’s face and check on your baby regularly. Be sure that there is enough opening for air to pass through. Ensure that the baby’s fingers are not caught in a buckle opening or gap as this may cause injury to the baby. Always fasten the buckles properly when the carrier is not in use. Keep the carrier away from children when it is not in use. Check to ensure all buckles, snaps, straps and adjustments are secure before each use. Regularly inspect the carrier for any signs of wear and damage.

Never use a carrier when fabric, fastener or buckle is damaged. Check for ripped seams, torn straps or fabrics and damaged fasteners before each use. Regularly check straps and buckles while in use to make sure they have proper tension and placement. Only use the front outward-facing, back and hip carry position when the baby has demonstrated strong and consistent head and neck control. Do not switch between positions with your baby in the carrier. Take the baby out of the carrier before changing the position of the carrier. To avoid injury when learning to place the baby in the carrier, do so over a bed or other cushioned surface with the assistance of another adult.

Whenever possible, wear and remove the carrier close to a safe receiving surface for the baby and in a safe place. Take particular care when a baby is carried in a back carry position. For smaller babies or adults with a long torso, wear the carrier waist belt higher on the body so the baby’s head is positioned close enough to kiss when using the front carry position. The carrier should not be used unless and until the wearer understands the instructions and safety features, and is confident and comfortable concerning the use of the carrier. This carrier is only intended for use by healthy adults. As a general rule, an individual in good health should be able to carry 20% of their body weight in a traditional backpack design. The carrier should not be used by a person with any health problems that might interfere with the safe use of the product. If the person using the carrier should develop shoulder, back, or neck problems, discontinue its use and consult a qualified medical professional. Discontinue the use of the carrier if the baby shows signs of discomfort while being carried for some time until the baby can be carried without exhibiting discomfort. A child could become hot in this carrier. Please choose the right materials for the child to wear. Check the core temperature by touching the child by hand.

The references to ages by month are only general guidelines and each baby’s development is different. Please check that your baby meets the specific requirements for use.
