To assemble the unit, ensure all provided hardware is securely tightened according to the included manual. The cot is compatible only with standard UK-sized mattresses measuring 140cm x 70cm. For maintenance, wipe the wooden surfaces regularly with a soft, damp cloth and avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish. Periodically check that all bolts and screws remain tight as the bed adjusts to the child's movement over time.
