Playing Walkie Talkie Games
Walkie Talkies can be used for all kinds of fun games and activities. Here are two suggestions:
Hide and Seek
Just like regular Hide and Seek, but with a twist: the “Hider” can send clues to the “Seeker” using the Walkie Talkies.
Mystery Sounds
Can you recognize the mystery sound? One kid sends a sound over the Walkie Talkies, while another tries to guess what the sound is. Examples can include an animal, song, TV show, or anything else!
Turning Power On/Off
- Slide the ON/OFF Button to the ON to activate the Walkie Talkies. The Power LED will glow solid.
- Slide the ON/OFF Button to the OFF to shut off the Walkie Talkies. The Power LED will turn off.
- Both Walkie Talkies must be turned on in order to send and receive messages.
Sending Voice Messages
Press and hold the Talk Button while speaking into the Microphone.
You Should Know
For clear transmission, keep the Microphone approximately two inches from your mouth.
Receiving Messages
- Both Walkie Talkies must be turned on in order to send and receive messages.
- Messages cannot be received while your Talk Button is being pressed.
- Messages can be heard through the Speaker.
Maintenance
It is important to keep the Walkie Talkies as dry and clean as possible. You may clean the cabinet with a cloth or sponge moistened with mild soap and water. Do not attempt to use strong cleansers or solvents, as they may cause damage.
Troubleshooting
If one or both of the Walkie Talkies do not work, this may indicate that the batteries are weak. Insert 2 new AAA batteries into each unit.
If the signal range of the Walkie Talkies decreases notably, this may again be an indication that the batteries are weak. Insert 2 new AAA batteries into each unit.
Please keep in mind that this product does not transmit well through obstacles such as trees, buildings, and metal structures.
If there is a sizable increase in static, it may be due to the proximity of electric motors, fluorescent lights, power lines, other signal-disrupting objects. You may have to change your location.
If problems persist, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE UNIT. See the Warranty for factory services.
