Frequently Asked Questions - Marie-Chantal Cot Bed Silver Cross

How do I assemble the cot?

Assembly requires two people. Follow the step-by-step instructions in the manual, starting with the cot ends (Step 1-4), then the drawer unit (Step 1-7). Use the specified bolts (K1, K2) and crescents (L). Ensure all fixings are tight before use.

Can this cot be converted into a toddler bed?

Yes, the Marie-Chantal Cot Bed converts into a toddler bed. Disassemble the cot as per instructions, remove the lower section of the cot ends, and reattach the drawer runner to the upper section. Use blanking bolts (K3) to cover screw holes.

What size mattress should I use?

The recommended mattress size is 1400 x 700 mm (400 size). The mattress thickness must not exceed 100 mm. The gap between the mattress and cot sides should be no more than 30 mm.

How do I clean the cot?

Clean with a damp cloth. Never use abrasives or bleach. Dry thoroughly immediately after cleaning.

Is the cot safe for a newborn?

Yes, the cot is intended from birth. Use the highest mattress position for a newborn, lowering it as the baby grows. The lowest position is safest when the baby can sit up.

What safety warnings should I be aware of?

Keep the cot away from open flames, heat sources, windows, and cords to prevent strangulation. Do not use more than one mattress. Ensure all fittings are tight and no parts are broken or missing.

Can I use the cot without a drawer?

How do I know when to switch to toddler bed mode?

When your child can climb out of the cot, it should no longer be used as a cot. Convert to toddler bed mode for continued use.

Are spare parts available?

Use only Silver Cross approved spare parts. Contact the manufacturer or distributor for replacements.

Warnings & Instructions For Safe Use & Maintenance

WARNING

Be aware of the risk of open fire and other sources of strong heat, such as electric bar gas fires, etc. in the near vicinity of the cot.

WARNING

Do not use the cot/bed if any part is broken, torn or missing and use only spare parts approved by Silver Cross.

WARNING

Do not leave anything in the cot or place the cot near to another product, which could provide a foothold or present a danger of suffocation or strangulation, e.g. strings, blinds, curtain cords, etc.

WARNING

Do not use more than one mattress in the cot.

WARNING

When converted into child's bed mode, do not place near heat sources, windows and other furniture.

The bed is designed to be dismantled for storage or transportation;

Any additional or replacement parts are obtained from the manufacturer or distributor.

All parts of the cot should be tightened correctly. Care should be taken to ensure that none of the fittings are loose or protruding as this could trap parts of the body or clothing, ribbons, drawstrings, necklaces etc., and pose a risk of strangulation.

The lowest position of the cot base is the safest position. You should use the cot in this position as soon as your baby is old enough to sit up.

The thickness of the mattress shall be such that the internal height (surface of the mattress to the upper edge of the cot frame) is at least 500 mm in the lowest position of the cot base and at least 200 mm in the highest position of the cot base.

The thickness of mattress shall not exceed 100 mm. We recommend the use of a 400 size mattress (1400 x 700mm).

The mattress length and width shall be such that the gap between the mattress and the sides and ends does not exceed 30 mm.

Your cot/bed may be cleaned with a damp cloth. Never use abrasives or bleach.

Thoroughly dry immediately after cleaning.

All assembly fittings should always be tightened properly and all fittings should be checked regularly and re-tightened as necessary.

To prevent injuries from falls, when a child is able to climb out of the cot, it should no longer be used for that child.

This cot bed is intended for children aged from birth to 4 years approximately. When converted into a COT bed it conforms to BS 8509:2008+A1:2011.

Children are likely to play, bounce, jump and climb on beds, therefore the child's bed should not be placed too close to other furniture or windows, blind cords, curtain pulls or other strings or cords, and should be placed either tight to any wall or have a gap of 300mm between the wall and the side of the bed.
