Avoiding Suffocation Hazards
• Unlike cribs that have rigid sides,
the playard has flexible sides. As
a result, the playard
mattress pad is specially designed
to prevent suffocation. The
playard mattress pad 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 pad may allow a
child's head to get between
mattress pad and the side of the
playard causing
suffocation.
Infants can suffocate
• In gaps between a mattress
pad too small or too thick
and products sides
• On soft bedding.
NEVER add a mattress, pillow,
comforter or padding. Use ONLY
mattress pad provided by Century.
Mattress dimension: 37"x 21"
(94 cm x 53 cm).
• To reduce the risk of SIDS,
pediatricians recommend healthy
infants be placed on their backs
to sleep, unless otherwise advised
by your physician.
• Never use plastic shipping bags
or other plastic film as mattress
pad covers not sold and intended
for that purpose. They can cause
suffocation.
• Prevent possible suffocation or
entanglement. Never use a
playard sheet unless it fits securely
on playard mattress pad.
RIGHT HEADER
• NEVER use a water mattress
pad with the playard.
• If a sheet is used with the
mattress pad, use only the one
provided by Century that is
specifically designed to fit the
dimensions of the mattress pad.
Avoiding Strangulation
Hazards
• Strings and cords can cause
strangulation. Keep strings and
cords away from child.
• NEVER place the playard near
a window where cords from
blinds or drapes can strangle
a child.
• NEVER hang strings on or
over the playard.
• NEVER place items with a
string around a child's neck,
such as hood strings, pacifier
cords, etc.
• NEVER attach strings to toys.
