ENG CDN Safety Instructions

WARNING:

IMPORTANT! KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

To prevent serious injury or death, securely install gate and use according to manufacturer’s instructions.

Check daily that gate is securely fixed.

To prevent falls, never use at top of stairs without stair safety brackets.

Use only with locking mechanisms securely engaged.

This safety barrier must not be fixed across windows and similar openings.

If this gate is used at the top of the stairs to prevent a child from falling down the stairs, it must not be placed on any stair below the level of the top stair.

If this gate is used at the bottom of the stairs to prevent child from climbing up the stairs, it must be placed on the lowest stair.

Discontinue use immediately if any component is damaged or missing.

Do not hang or tie toys to any part of the gate.

Never allow children to swing on the gate.

Never use with a child able to climb over, dislodge or open the gate.

Keep child away from gate during operation.

Never leave child unattended.

Replacement parts should only be obtained from The First Years.

Plan ahead

Before you begin installation, you need to decide whether you want to pressure mount or hardware mount the gate.

Hardware mounting (pages 4-6) must be used when installing the gate at the top of the stairs, and may be used in a doorway or hallway that you always want to be a secured area for your child. Hardware mounting provides the added convenience of one-handed, swing-thru opening. Once hardware is mounted, you can also switch back and forth for use in pressure mount application.

Pressure mounting (pages 7-8) should be used to secure doorways or hallways that you only need to protect your child from some of the time. Pressure mounting gives you the flexibility to easily move the gate from room to room.

NOTE: When in pressure mount mode, gate does not swing open. You must remove entirely from doorway or area to open.

When hardware mounting the gate in a doorway with a baseboard, you might need to use the spacers provided.
