Initial Setup and Testing

See the illustrations on the inside back cover.

Peel off the label covering the receptacle at the lower left corner of the Base

Station. Insert the Baby Turtle plug into the receptacle.The plug should snap

firmly into place.

Ensure that all your Turtles are the same color as the Baby Turtle plug inserted

into the Base Station.

Locate the Base Station:

protected from elements

as close as possible to the furthest point of the pool

at chest level or higher

where it won’t be accidentally moved or unplugged

where the alarm can be heard

with minimum metal obstruction between Base Station and pool

not beside cordless phone receptacle

Connect the AC adapter cord to the socket at the bottom of the Base

Station.The plug must be fully inserted. Plug the adapter into a matching

electrical outlet only. Ensure that the green light is on.

Make sure that each Turtle works by testing it as follows. Conduct all

tests with the Base Station at its actual operating location.

Set the Base Station to Test Mode by pressing the moon-shaped button

on the Base Station (the amber light will now turn on).

Immerse a Turtle in the pool and verify that the Base Station is

beeping slowly.

To increase the volume of the test beep, hold down the moon-shaped

button while the beep is sounding. Release the button when the desired

test beep volume is reached.To decrease the volume, release the button,

then hold it down until the volume drops.
