Quick Guide
The HALO BassiNest 2-In-1 Bedside Sleeper is designed for infants up to 20 lbs. It is critical to read all instructions before assembly. Key safety warnings include avoiding suffocation hazards by not using extra padding, pillows, or comforters. Always place the infant on their back to sleep. Do not use the product if the infant can push up on hands and knees or has reached 20 lbs.
Assembly Instructions
The assembly requires adult setup. Ensure all parts are present: sleep surface, lowering wall bar, middle support, left/right wheels, left/right legs, fixing buckles and straps, upper rail, and cross bar.
- Base Assembly: Connect the left and right legs to the cross bar and wheels as shown in the diagrams.
- Frame Assembly: Attach the upper rail and middle support to the leg structure.
- Sleep Surface: Attach the sleep surface to the frame, ensuring all zippers and fabric connections are secure.
- Finalizing: Ensure all buckles are clicked and fabric is properly aligned.
Height Adjustment
To adjust the height of the bassinet:
- Slide the lock on top while pressing the button at the same time.
- Adjust to the desired height (settings 1-5).
- Repeat on the other side. Ensure both sides are set to the same number to keep the sleep surface level.
Warning: Remove the infant from the bassinet before making any adjustments. Never incline the sleep surface by setting legs to different heights.
Bedside Sleeper Mode
This mode allows the bassinet to be used next to an adult bed. It must be properly secured using the attachment system.
- Compatibility: Designed for adult beds between 19.7 and 24.5 inches from floor to top of the adult mattress.
- Setup: Ensure the bassinet is positioned against the adult bed. Use the fixing buckles and straps to secure the bassinet to the adult bed frame.
- Safety: There must be no more than 1/2 inch (13mm) gap between the bedside sleeper and the adult bed. Check tightness before each use.
