Product Usage Instructions:

1. Ensure the battery compartment is accessible.
2. Insert the required batteries (refer to the user manual for
   battery specifications) into the battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery case cover and securely fasten it with the
   provided small screw. Avoid over-tightening.
4. To activate or deactivate specific stimuli, use the small white
   rocker switches located on the device. Push the switches to the
   “on” position for the desired stimuli (1 for vibration, 2 for
   music, 3 for lights). The “open” position indicates that the
   stimuli is turned off (see Fig 1).
5. Press anywhere on the Turtle’s back to trigger the selected
   stimuli, such as vibration, lights, or music.
6. To use the Turtle Switch as a switch interface, connect an
   external toy or device using the provided double-ended male
   1/8-inch to 1/8-inch cord. Plug one end into the 1/8-inch female
   jack on the side of the Turtle.
7. When using the Turtle Switch as a switch interface, you can
   turn any of the three stimuli (vibration, music, lights) on or
   off.

Troubleshooting:

Problem: The Turtle Switch does not operate properly.

1. Ensure the batteries are correctly placed in the battery
   compartment and making good contact.
2. Verify that the desired stimuli are selected according to the
   operation instructions (No.3).
3. If the unit still does not work properly, replace the batteries
   with new ones.

Problem: The Turtle Switch does not activate a connected
toy/device.

1. Check that all connections are fully plugged in without any
   gaps.
2. Inspect the batteries in the toy/device and replace them if
   weak or dead.

Care Instructions:

To clean the Turtle Switch, wipe it with a household
multipurpose cleaner and disinfectant. We recommend using Simple
Green, a non-toxic biodegradable all-purpose cleaner. Avoid
submerging the unit as it can damage the top and electrical
components.

This turtle has triple the rewards! It activates with a light touch–choose from music, lights, vibration, or all three! Makes a great companion to our Ladybug switch (#729). Size: 9″L x 6¼”W x 4″H. 2 AA Batteries. Weight: 1 lb.
Operation:
1. The Turtle Switch requires two AA batteries (Not included). The battery compartment is located under the base of the unit. Carefully turn the switch over, and then remove the battery cover with a small Philips screwdriver. Install new batteries, being careful to observe proper battery polarity. Use alkaline batteries only (e.g. Duracell or Energizer brand). Do not use Heavy Duty, Super Duty or rechargeable batteries because they supply lower voltage and the unit will not perform properly. Never mix old and new batteries together or different brands or types together.
2. Replace the battery case cover and secure it with the small screw. Do not over-tighten.
3. To turn on or off the desired stimuli (1-vibration; 2-music; 3lights), push the small white rocker switches to the on or (open position). Open position means off. Please see Fig 1.

Press anywhere on the Turtle’s back to activate your toy or device. Once you release pressure from the switch, your toy or device will turn off.
6. When using as a switch you can turn On or Off any of the three stimuli.
