Cosatto ALBANY 3 in 1 Cot Bed - safety
notice
The following notice has been issued by the
manufacturer:
IMPORTANT PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE
Cosatto ALBANY 3 in 1 Cot bed
As part of an ongoing program of continual
product assessment, a potential safety concern has been
identified relating to the importance of retaining and re-fitting
the 2 pre-fitted security screws on the ALBANY cot bed in 'Nut' and
'Cream' finish.
When the cot bed is converted from a cot to a
junior bed the 2 security screws need to be removed to allow each
of the upper and lower bed end sections to separate.
IMPORTANT: If the junior bed is subsequently
converted BACK to a cot – for a second child or for a friend or
relative's child, for example – each of the security screws MUST be
re-fitted.
If the security screws are NOT re-fitted, it
is possible to create a gap between the lower and upper cot bed end
sections if the cot is moved or lifted for any reason. This could
cause the possibility of injury to parent or child. It is also
possible that, in some cases, partial disassembly of the drop side
mechanism could occur, rendering the cot unsafe.
If the cot bed is converted to a SOFA, as
stated in the instructions, it is also important that each of the
security screws is re-fitted.
We have also produced an addendum to the
original instruction leaflet for your further guidance .
Should you require any additional screw sets
or need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact
us directly via 0871 977 3900 (Option 1), via email at techhelp@cosatto.com or write to
us at the address below.
We have taken this action to ensure the safety
and wellbeing of our customers and apologise for any inconvenience
this may cause.
