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 pad,
pillow, comforter or padding.
Use ONLY mattress pad provided
by Graco.
• 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.
• NEVER use a water mattress
pad 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.
• Never use toy bar on play
yard, playard bassinet, or
changing table. Only attach
toy bar to lift out bassinet or
tummy time mat.
