WARNINGS

Batteries must be changed by an adult.
We do not recommend submerging the unit in the water. If the unit does get submerged in the water, please dry the unit completely before adding the bubble solution.
To prevent drowning, never leave a child unattended in the bath.
Use a thermometer to check the temperature of the water before sitting a child in the bath. Children have very sensitive skin and can burn easily if the water is too hot.
For best results, use only high-quality bubble solution.
Do not drink the bubble solution.
In case of eye contact, immediately rinse the eye with clean water.
Please check the suction cups periodically as they may detach after prolonged use.
Use caution when handling the unit when the reservoir is full of bubble solution, the bubble solution can spill easily.
When the unit will not be used for an extended period of time, empty the bubble solution from the reservoir and wipe the unit clean with a damp cloth.
Children should not play with the suction cups when the unit is fastened to the wall as the unit may detach and cause injuries.
Do not clean the bubble wand with cleaning products. Cleaners may have a negative impact on the bubble effect.
Do not touch the bubble wand when the bubble motor is turned on.
This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your doctor for more details.

This electronic toy is intended for use on the side of the bath and is waterproof when used as intended. Water cannot enter the electronics if the battery compartment door is locked correctly. The design is verified by submerging the toy underwater to a depth of 15cm for 30 minutes. There will be a reduction in acoustic performance when the toy is submerged in water. The Bubble Time Turtle will not be able to form bubbles submerged and is designed to go on the wall of the bath. Adult supervision is needed.

WARNING: Bubble Solution – Not suitable for children under 36 months. Choking hazard. There is aluminum foil under the bottle top. Please remove all of the aluminum foil before using the bubble solution and discard of it safely. Adult assembly is required. Bubble mixture to be used under adult supervision.

GETTING STARTED

BATTERY REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

Make sure the unit is turned OFF.
Locate the battery cover on the back of the unit. Use a screwdriver to loosen the screw and then open the battery cover.
If used batteries are present, remove these batteries from the unit by pulling up on one end of each battery. Remove the third old battery on the bottom by pulling up the strip of cloth.
Install 3 new AA batteries following the diagram inside the battery box. (For best performance, alkaline batteries or fully charged Ni-MH rechargeable batteries are recommended).
Replace the battery cover and tighten the screw to secure it.

WARNING:

Adult assembly is required for battery installation.
Keep batteries out of reach of children.

IMPORTANT: BATTERY INFORMATION

Insert batteries with the correct polarity (+ and -).
Do not mix old and new batteries.
Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc), or rechargeable batteries.
Only batteries of the same or equivalent type, as recommended, are to be used.
Do not short-circuit the supply terminals.
Remove batteries during long periods of non-use.
Remove exhausted batteries from the toy.
Dispose of batteries safely. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.

RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES

Disposal of batteries and product

The crossed-out wheelie bin symbols on products and batteries, or on their respective packaging, indicates they must not be disposed of in domestic waste as they contain substances that can be damaging to the environment and human health.
The chemical symbols Hg, Cd, or Pb, where marked, indicate that the battery contains more than the specified value of mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), or lead (Pb) set out in the Batteries and Accumulators Regulation.
The solid bar indicates that the product was placed on the market after 13th August 2005. Help protect the environment by disposing of your product or batteries responsibly.

PRODUCT ASSEMBLY

With the VTech® Bubble Time Turtle, safety comes first.
To ensure your child’s safety, adult assembly is required.

Open the bottle and carefully tear off the aluminum foil. Discard the foil appropriately.
Carefully fill the bubble reservoir with bubble solution. Do not overfill the bubble solution beyond the white line shown in the image. Filling the bottle cap up four times will fill the reservoir to the top. Do not dilute the bubble solution. Using a concentrated bubble solution will produce the best bubbles.
Choose a surface on the wall surrounding the bath where the suction cup support unit can be mounted securely. The area should be clean and dry before suctioning the unit to the wall. For better suction, we suggest wetting the suction cups before attaching them to the wall. Press the suction cups onto the wall to secure the suction cup support unit. Once the unit is attached to the wall, test the strength of the suction by pulling gently on the unit. The suction cups may not stick properly to textured tiles. We recommend that the unit be removed from the wall after each use as the strength of the suction cups cannot support prolonged use.
To remove the unit from the wall, pull the tab on the suction cup and pull the turtle gently.

WARNING
To prevent the risk of injuries, do not attach the VTech® Bubble Time
Turtle any higher than a child’s head height when sitting in the bath.
