  • Page 5 Putting on your Caboo dx+ Fig A.2 - Make sure the side straps are loosened off first and nothing is twisted. Hold the hammock out in front of you as shown…the logo should be facing you reading the right way up. Fig A.3 - Place the hammock over your head like a T-shirt…your arms should go out through the sides and head through the middle.
  • Page 6 Positions 0-3 months Weight range 5lbs – 2.3kg+ Upright Newborn position… Fig C.1 - Always check you have left 10-12 cm space between you and the hammock. Fig C.2 - Pick baby up and support them with one hand high up on your shoulder on the outer strap side.
  • Page 7 Once in place, bring the waist buckles of the hammock through the belt loop at the bottom of the Pod and clip together, this will keep the Pod in place. Pull on the ends of the hammock straps to tighten. Please note: The additional head support Pod is designed to be used once baby can fully support their own head around 4-5 months so is not needed in this position.

  • Page 10 Upright facing in *for babies who can hold their own head around 4 months + Popper the additional head support onto the main Pod and check the bottom strap on the Pod is still on the correct size setting or adjust if necessary (‘adjusting your pod’ guide can be found on page 2).
  • Page 11 Upright facing out *for babies with excellent head control 5+ months Fig E.1 to E.3 – Put Caboo dx+ on as before... making sure you loosen off the side straps, and baby goes into the hammock in the same way (Fig D1-D.4), but instead of facing in your baby faces away from you.
  • Page 12 Feeding Support Weight range: Max weight 14.5kg 32lbs Put the carrier on repeating steps Fig A.2 to A.5 …bear in mind the straps may need to be a little looser than in the upright position to get baby in. Fig F.1 - Check if you have left around about 12-14 cm space between you and the hammock. Fig F.2 - Leave the inner strap where it is and slide the outer strap down off the shoulder.
  • Page 13 Special note for breastfeeding mums… Re-thread the rings to alternate sides when breastfeeding, (make sure baby is not in the carrier); pull the fabric of the inner strap out of the rings …take it back across you over top of the opposite strap and re-thread in the same rings.
  • Page 14 Assisted back position… *for babies 8 months + minimum 20lbs/9kg+ You will need a little help from a friend to get baby safely into and out of the back carry position. Fig G.1 Hold the hammock out in front of you with the logo and back panel away from you. G.2 Put it on over your head in the same way, your arms out the sides and head through the middle but this time the back panel will sit across your chest and the hammock crosses on your back.
  • Page 15 G.7 & G.8 Finally attach the shoulder straps to the Pod on both sides, and bringing the waist straps behind you, thread the waist buckle through the belt loop, clip together and tighten to keep the Pod in place. Handy Tip; If your baby is under 12 months old we highly recommend using a baby carrying mirror or the selfie camera setting on your smartphone when carrying on the back so you can routinely monitor baby especially whilst sleeping.
  • Page 16 The T.I.C.K.S. Rules for Safe Babywearing Keep your baby close and keep your baby safe. When you are wearing a sling or carrier, don't forget the T.I.C.K.S TIGHT - slings and carriers should be tight enough to hug your baby close to you as this will be most comfortable for you both.
