Section 2: Proper Usage, Care, and Storage
Proper Crib Mattress, Crib Mattress Pad & Changing Pad Usage
Your crib mattress should be properly used as intended for infants and toddlers ranging from 0 to 4 years old and up to 60 pounds/27 kilograms. The crib mattress should only be used inside USA standard size cribs and toddler bed frames that conform to current Federal or ASTM standards. Usage inside cribs or toddler beds that do not meet Federal or ASTM crib standards–or in any way interfere with the proper use of the crib mattress–must be avoided. For single stage mattresses, it is recommended that you turn the crib mattress over from time to time to help maintain even weight distribution. Some crib mattresses are designed with two stages of firmness for infants and toddlers. The proper side should be used as marked on the label, approximately 0-24 months for the infant side and 24+ months for the toddler side. Crib mattress pads should only be used on crib mattresses that are designed to fit inside USA standard size cribs. Changing pads should only be used with children under 30 lbs. and should only be used on level, stable and structurally sound surfaces with minimum dimensions of 16” x 32”.
Proper Crib Mattress, Crib Mattress Pad & Changing Pad Care
Laminate crib mattress covers may be cleaned with a damp cloth and a soft, non-abrasive soap, such as a mild detergent or gentle cleaner. Fabric covers may be spot cleaned with a mild detergent and water. Wipe away any excessive liquids along the surface and seams and allow it to dry before replacing your crib sheet or using the crib mattress. Wash and dry crib mattress pads according to the care tag sewn into the pad, and as indicated on the packaging. Changing pads should be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap or gentle cleaner. Wipe away any excessive liquids along the surface and seams and allow it to dry before replacing your changing pad cover or using the changing pad. Failure to follow appropriate care instructions will void warranties.
Proper Crib Mattress, Crib Mattress Pad & Changing Pad Storage
Crib mattresses, crib mattress pads, and changing pads should be stored flat in a protected and dry environment where moisture, leaks and wetness will not damage the products. Items should not be stored on top of or pressed against a crib mattress or a changing pad. A crib mattress should not be placed in a manner that will cause bending, folding or damage to the core, cushioning or cover. The storage area should be protected against insects, animals, chemicals or excessive heating and cooling environments. To help prevent soiling or dust settlement while in storage, place the crib mattress inside a bag for protection. Wipe down and air dry before next use.
