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.
• 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.
