Snappi diaper fastener
DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
- STRETCH the Snappi ® fastener before its first use. The stretching
triggers the 'memory' of the Snappi ® to return to its original size and in so
doing, pulls the diaper together to the middle to allow for a snug fit. This is
essential for the Snappi ® to work properly. This is done by holding the Snappi
® in the center with one hand and close to the end of the leg (not by the rings)
with the other hand and s-t-r-e-t-c-h a few times (10 or so). As you do this you
should feel how the material 'softens' or gets more elastic. Follow this stretching
procedure with each leg. The Snappi ® is then ready to go!
- Make sure that your Snappi ® is ATTACHED SECURELY. It is important that the
Snappi ® ‘leg’ being attached be stretched as far as possible before hooking it
into the cloth diaper. In other words:
Hook left,
s-t-r-e-t-c-h
and hook right,
s-t-r-e-t-c-h down and hook center so as to form a ‘Y’
shape.
By doing this, the Snappi ® should be secure, the cloth diaper
will fit snugly and the baby should not be able to undo it. Place cover over cotton
diaper and Snappi ® fastener.
NOTE: Snappi ®s WORK BEST with cotton prefolds
(Chinese or DSQ), terry cloth diapers and other cloth diapers with a loose enough
weave for the Snappi to hook into. They do not work well with tightly woven diapers
such as flannel diapers.
WARNING: ALWAYS use a cover
when using a Snappi ® fastener on your baby’s diaper.
Keep out of children’s
reach when not in use!
Do not use your Snappi ® for longer than 6 months.
Do not leave your Snappi ® lying in the sun as it is not UV resistant
and can reduce the effectiveness of the Snappi ®.
CARE: Clean your Snappi
® in hot soapy water. Do not launder them with cloth diapers in the washer as
this may weaken the grip attachment.
CAUTION: Any tear in the Snappi
® can lead to separation of a piece, presenting a possible choking hazard. Do
not cut your Snappi ® as this could create weak spots in your Snappi ®. Inspect
your Snappi ® before each use and discontinue use immediately if there is any
sign of cracking, tearing, breakage or wear of the teeth or any other parts.
