Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your mobile, carefully unpack the components from the secure Danish-made packaging. Attach the pieces according to the provided instructions, ensuring all suspension wires are free of kinks. The mobile is compatible with most standard ceiling hooks. To care for your mobile, keep it away from direct sunlight to prevent potential fading of materials. Dust it occasionally using a very soft, dry brush or a light dusting tool. If the wires become dusty, a quick wipe with a dry microfiber cloth is usually sufficient. Avoid using chemical cleaners or water, as these can compromise the balance or the integrity of the finish.
