Troubleshooting

Liquid spill on the mattress
Immediately blot the liquid with a dry cloth and allow the area to air dry in a well-ventilated space, ensuring it is completely dry before reuse.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, simply remove the mattress from the packaging and ensure it lies flat within the iCandy Apple 2 carrycot. The mattress should fit snugly against the sides of the carrycot without leaving gaps. For care, it is highly recommended to use a breathable, waterproof mattress protector to shield the wool and coconut core from spills or leaks. If the cotton cover requires cleaning, it should be spot-cleaned gently according to the care label. Do not submerge the natural core in water, as it may degrade the structure of the coconut fibers.
