PRODUCT ASSEMBLY/ INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Press the release button and remove
the snorkel lid to expose the bubble
reservoir.
2. Carefully fill the bubble reservoir with
bubble solution. Do not overfill as
this may cause the bubble solution to
spill. Do not dilute the bubble solution,
using concentrated bubble solution will
produce the best bubbles.
3. Return the snorkel lid and snap it back
into position.
4. Choose a surface on the wall surrounding
the tub where the VTech® Musical
Bubbles OctopusTM 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 to the
wall. 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
5

of the suction cups cannot support prolonged use.
5. To remove the unit from the wall, pull
on the tabs on the back of the suction
cups.
WARNING: To prevent the risk of injuries,
do not attach the VTech® Musical Bubbles
OctopusTM any higher than a child's head
height when sitting in the bath.
