INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF BabeSafe MATTRESS COVERS

 

Bedding instructions:

Many items of western-style baby bedding are capable of gas generation from compounds of phosphorus, arsenic and/or antimony in the bedding.  Therefore it is essential to use strictly specified bedding on top of a BabeSafe-wrapped mattress which is not capable of this gas generation.

 

The bedding instructions for a BabeSafe-wrapped mattress are as follows:

 

1.     On top of the wrapped mattress place a pure cotton blanket.

2.     On top of the pure cotton blanket, place a pure cotton or polyester/cotton       fitted lower sheet and a cover sheet.  (The baby sleeps between these sheets.)

 3.     On top of the cover sheet, place pure cotton or pure woolen overblanket/s.

 4.     Do not use any of the following items on a BabeSafe-wrapped mattress:

 

• Moisture-resistant crib mattress protector

• Any form of mattress pad

• Any blanket which contains polyester

• Any blanket which contains acrylic

• Sheepskin or sheepfleece underlay

• Sleeping bag

• Duvet or quilt

• Pillows or cushions

    5.     Do not use any bedding or "clothing" item which is in the form of a bag.

Cleaning instructions:

Do not remove the BabeSafe cover from the mattress for cleaning.  To clean the cover, wipe it with bar soap and warm water, and then dry with a towel.  Do not use chemical bleaches or sterilants to clean a BabeSafe cover.
