H. Instruction Manual

ASSEMBLING THE CRIB FOR THE FIRST TIME
The product is delivered closed and partly assembled.

Open the frame by taking hold of the upper tubes and
pulling upwards (Fig. 1). Should the mattress keep the crib from opening completely during initial assembly, remove the mattress and pull the tubes upwards once again. Verify that the locks were properly engaged by ensuring that the red sign on the legs of the crib is not visible (Fig. 2).
Assemble the rear feet “B” on the back of the crib by inserting them in the tubes until a click is heard (Fig. 3-4). Be sure that the type of foot assembled matches the type used on the front of the crib (with or without wheels).
Insert the tube for the front barrier “A” using the slots on the fabric (Fig. 5).
Lift the tube “A” and attach it to the connections on the crib (Fig. 6).
Close the zip fasteners “D1” on either side (Fig. 7)
Block the 2 wheels of the crib by lowering the levers that activate the brakes (Fig. 8). The product is now ready to be used as a traditional crib (with the barrier closed).

WARNING: Make sure that all the fasteners are engaged correctly and that the zippers are closed and locked at the end.
WARNING: Do not use the crib with the front articulated feet partially or completely turned or released (fig. 9). The position of correct use is illustrated in figure 10. In the case of accidental knocking against the articulated feet, put them back in the correct position by lifting the crib slightly.

HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT The height of the crib can be adjusted in 6 different positions.
To adjust the height press up on the adjustment buttons “C1” and raise or lower the crib until the desired position is reached (Fig. 11). The base of the crib can be slightly inclined by adjusting the leg supports to different heights (Fig. 12).

WARNING: The crib can be inclined by a maximum of 2 positions between one leg support and the other (e.g., right leg support in position 3 and left leg support in position 1) (Fig. 13).

WARNING: The child’s head must always be positioned near the raised end (fig.14).

SIDE SLEEPING CONFIGURATION (FASTENING THE CRIB TO THE BED)
The crib can be fastened to the parents’ bed (side sleeping configuration).
WARNING – IMPORTANT FOR YOUR CHILD’S SAFETY. This configuration is allowed only with beds that permit compliance with all the conditions described in this paragraph.
In particular, the lowered side of the crib must always be positioned against the mattress of the parents’ bed and the top 15 of the parents’mattress must be aligned with (or at most higher than) the height of the containment barrier on the open side of the crib (fig.15-16). Moreover, the crib must be firmly fastened to the structure of the parents’ bed or to the mattress support (mesh or slat sprung base).

WARNING: Check that the structure of the crib in side sleeping configuration does not interfere with the parents’ bed.
WARNING: When in use, make sure that the parent’s bedsheets, blankets, etc. do not invade the crib’s space.
Open the side of the front barrier by completely opening the zip fasteners “D1” (Fig. 17)
Next, press the release buttons “C8” next to the white circle on the fabric and partially uncover the front barrier tube “A”, on one side first and then on the other (Fig. 18).
Once the tube has been completely uncovered on both ends, move it under the base of the crib, rotate the supports “C4” outwards and attach the tube to the supports (Fig. 19).

WARNING: Use the crib with the bar lowered only in cosleeping configuration.
Put the crib against the parents’ bed and check the height of the crib compared to the parents’ mattress.
WARNING: The top of the parents’ mattress must be higher than or the same as that of the containment barrier of the open crib (Fig. 20). If this is not the case, use the height adjustment system to achieve this condition on both sides.

WARNING: In side sleeping configuration, the crib’s 2 legs must be set at the same height.
To fasten the crib to the parents’ bed (side sleeping configuration), use the pair of supplied straps “F”.
Connect the forks “F1” to the straps with the buckles “C9” located under the fabric lining on either side. Be sure that the buckle “F3” is positioned above the belt strap (Fig. 21)
Next have the straps run from bottom to top “F” around the frame of the parents’ bed (Fig. 22) and connect the forks “F2” to the buckles “F3” to form a loop (Fig. 23). Repeat this operation on the other side as well. To make installation easy, when fastening the buckles, always keep the crib slightly away from the parents’ bed.
At this point put the crib up against the parents’ bed and tighten the loop by pulling firmly on the straps “F” (Fig. 24). Carry out this step first on one side and then on the other, adjusting the straps until the crib is in firm contact with the parents’ mattress.

WARNING: Before each use, make sure that there is no space between the parents’ mattress and side of the crib. Otherwise adjust the straps by pulling firmly until the required condition is restored.
Lock the crib’s wheels. If, when fastening the crib to the parents’ bed, the feet of the crib do not fit under the parents’ bed, the crib can be fastened to the bed anyway by following the instructions above with the added step of rotating the articulated feet “C5” when pressing the crib up against the bed.
To rotate the front feet “C5” press the release button “C6” and use one hand to rotate the feet of the crib inward (Fig. 25).

WARNING: Use the product with beds and/or mattresses with straight sides only. Do not use the product with round beds and/or mattresses or water mattresses.
WARNING: When the product is used in “Co-sleeping configuration (fastened to the bed),” it must always be mounted on the long side of the bed. DO NOT install the product at the head or foot of the bed.
MAKING THE BED
The crib can be unfastened from the parents’ bed when making the bed. To do this, simply release the forks “F1” from the buckles “C9” found under the fabric covering. When fastening the crib again to the parents’ bed, pull the straps again to make sure that the crib is correctly and
securely fastened to the parents’ bed. Make sure that all the
steps illustrated above, in the paragraph on “Co-sleeping
configuration (fastened to the bed)”, have been completed.
CLOSING THE PRODUCT
The product can be closed for storage or transportation. To close it:
If open, close the front barrier by attaching the detachable tube to the appropriate position on the frame and close the zip fasteners “D1”.
Push down on the closure release levers “C3” and, while holding the levers in the down position, energetically pull up on the height adjustment buttons “C1” on either end (Fig. 26-27). To be sure that the release has been activated, the height adjustment button must nearly come into contact with the articulation (Fig. 28).
Fold the frame by having it run downwards while continuing to push frontwards (Fig. 29-30). The release buttons described above must be pressed and held down until the crib is completely folded.
To reopen the crib simply raise the frame upwards by taking hold of the tubes (Fig. 31)

REMOVING THE COVER
For this operation, you will need:
To remove the mattress from the crib (Fig. 32).
To release the four straps with automatic buttons “D3” located under the base of the crib (Fig. 33-34).
To open the zip fastener for the barrier “D1” (Fig. 17), release the tube “A” (Fig. 18) and remove it (Fig. 35).
To open the zip fastener that runs along the top perimeter “D2” (Fig. 36).
To remove the fabric (Fig. 37). If the lining needs to be taken off of the mattress:
Carefully pull the wood panel and the mattress padding out from the fabric cover. To cover the crib and mattress complete the same steps in reverse order.
WARNING: Covering or removing the fabric may take a few minutes and must be carried out by an adult.
