Immediately clear off the packing, particularly the nylon parts and the straps which may cause children to suffocate.
Assembly, disassembling, part replacing
Assembly (and, whenever necessary, disassembling and part replacing) should be carried out entirely by adults.
Keep children away during all assembly steps to avoid that they may be fortuitously hit by the table components as well as preventing them from seizing parts that, if improperly used, could be very dangerous.
