around their necks.

kit consisting o f a new seat pad
with a restraint system that has
w aist and crotch straps and instal­

and straps can be installed easily

344,12-345,12-347,12-475 and 12-
476. The model number is located on
a small white sticker on the bottom o f
the swing seat under the foot area.
Each swing has a plastic, two-posi-
tion seat with a removable plastic
tray. The seats are covered by either
a vinyl or fabric seat pad. There are
four white tubular metal legs sup­
porting the swing. The Century brand
name and swing controls are on the
motor assembly at the top o f the
swing. Other Century swing models
have different restraint systems and
are not being recalled.
Juvenile product, department, and
discount stores nationwide sold the
swings beginning in 1991 until early
1997 for about $90.
Consumers should stop using the
L il’ N apper swings immediately and
call Century at 1-800-231-1448 for a
free in-home repair kit with installa­
tion instructions, or write to Century
Products Company, 9600 V alley V iew
Road, Macedonia, Ohio 44056.
Consumers should not use the
swing until the new pad and restraint
system are installed.
