Frequently Asked Questions
1 Are longer straps available?
Longer straps and replacement parts may be purchased from Terrapin.
2 I’m having trouble threading the strap through the buckle.
First turn the key so the dots are at right angles.

Yes, but only if your Turtle(s) are the same color as the Baby Turtle plugged into
that Base Station.
4 Can I increase the audibility of the alarm throughout
my home?
The volume of the alarm in Active Mode cannot be increased.You can use more
than one Base Station or connect to home alarm system – see Question 12
.
5 Can I expand the water area within which my Turtle(s)
will alarm?
A second Base Station may be situated to expand coverage area. Call Terrapin’s
customer support line to discuss Initial Setup and Testing with more than one
Base Station.
6 Should my child wear the Turtle wristband in the bath or
when I take him or her into the pool?
No. Always remove the wristband first.

removed from the water?
The Turtle keeps transmitting until it is dry.
