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 an upper sheet.  (The baby sleeps between these sheets.)

 

3)                 On top of the upper sheet, place pure cotton or pure woolen over-blanket/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 sheep fleece 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.
