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 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 Graco. Mattress pad dimension: 27”x
39” (68.5 cm x 99 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
covers not sold and intended for that purpose. They can cause
suffocation.
• NEVER use a water mattress with the playard.
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.
