• The product, including side rails, must be fully erected prior to use.

• Child can become entrapped and die when improvised netting or covers are

placed on top of a play yard. Never add such items to conﬁne child in play yard.

• Replace teething rails if damaged, cracked or loose.

• Always provide the supervision necessary for the continued safety of your child.

When used for playing, never leave child unattended.

Infants can suffocate on soft bedding. Never add a pillow, comforter or padding.•

To reduce the risk of SIDS, pediatricians recommend healthy infants be placed •

on their backs to sleep, unless otherwise advised by your physician.

Strings can cause strangulation! Do not place items with a string around a •

child’s neck, such as hood strings or paciﬁer cords. Do not suspend strings over

a crib or attach strings to toys.

To help prevent strangulation tighten all fasteners. A child can trap parts of the •

body or clothing on loose fasteners.

DO NOT place a crib near a window where cords from blinds or drapes may •

strangle a child.

When a child is able to pull to a standing position, set the mattress to the lowest •

position and remove bumper pads, large toys and other objects that could serve

as steps for climbing out.

For cribs with drop sides, after raising side, make sure latches are secure.•

For cribs with drop sides, DO NOT leave child in crib with side lowered. Be sure •

side is in raised and locked position whenever child is in crib.

When a child is able to climb out, reaches the height of 35 inches (90cm), the •

child should be placed in a youth or regular bed, and the crib shall no longer be

used.

edges before and after assembly and frequently during use. DO NOT use crib

if any parts are missing, damaged or broken. Contact MDB Family for

replacement parts and instructional literature if needed. DO NOT substitute parts.

NEVER use a water mattress with this product. •

For cribs equipped with teething rails, replace teething rail if damaged, cracked •

or loose.

If reﬁnishing, use a non-toxic ﬁnish speciﬁed for children’s products.•

Never use plastic shipping bags or other plastic films as mattress covers not

sold and intended for that purpose. They can cause suffocation.

•

Infants can suffocate in gaps between crib sides when used with a mattress •

that is too small.

Check fasteners periodically for tightness. Do not overtighten. This may cause •

distortion or breakage.

Use a crib as a crib, not as a play pen. Remember that a crib is not a substitute •

for a parent’s supervision.

When re-assembling the crib for your second child, please keep in mind that

the

•

screw holes will need to be ﬁlled in order for the screws to grip the wood, Talk to

your local hardware store or lumber yard about how to do this properly.

Care and Cleaning:

Pine woods exchange moisture with the air adjusting

to major changes in room temperature and humidity.

Therefore, it is best to place your furniture away from

heating or air-conditioning vents.

Sunlight is not friendly to solid wood furniture and

prolonged direct exposure to harsh sunlight can

discolor the finish. Be careful not to place your

furniture in direct sunlight for extended periods of

time. As with all your fine furniture, blot up spills

immediately.

•

Do not scratch or chip the ﬁnish. Do not use abrasive

chemicals for cleaning. Clean with mild soap on a soft

rag. Rinse and dry thoroughly. If you ever reﬁnish this

furniture, be sure to use only a non-toxic ﬁnish

speciﬁed for children’s products. If you choose to

reﬁnish this furniture, the warranty will be voided.
