Two Modes of Play
Watch & Learn Mode
The Watch & Learn mode functions as a learning video. With
stimulating images (including both real and illustrated images)
and playful animations, babies will be introduced to a variety
of learning curriculum. Babies can press any of the buttons for
engaging interactive effects.
Smart Play Mode
Smart Play mode is geared for the toddler who has the
knowledge from Watch & Learn mode and is ready to direct
his/her learning. Simple directions and questions allow toddlers
to apply the new information they have acquired.

has proven that babies who sign speak earlier,
experience less frustration and benefit intellectually.
Watch as Jack introduces zoo animals signs including
monkey, elephant, giraffe, fish and bird.

CARE & MAINTENANCE / WARNING/TROUBLESHOOTING
7
CARE & MAINTENANCE
1. Keep your V.Baby™ clean by wiping it with a slightly damp cloth. Never use
solvents or abrasives.
2. Keep the unit out of direct sunlight and away from direct sources of heat.
3. Remove the batteries when not using it for an extended period of time.
4. Avoid dropping it. NEVER try to dismantle it.
5. Always keep the V.Baby™ away from water.
WARNING
A very small percentage of the public, due to an existing condition, may
experience epileptic seizures or momentary loss of consciousness when
viewing certain types of flashing colors or patterns, especially on television.
While the V.Baby™Infant Development System does not contribute to any
additional risks, we do recommend that parents supervise their children while
they play games in front of a television. If your child experiences dizziness,
altered vision, disorientation, or convulsions, discontinue use immediately and
consult your physician.
Please note that focusing on a television screen at close range for a prolonged
period of time may cause fatigue or discomfort. We recommend that children
take a 15-minute break for every hour of play.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Please note that if you try to insert or remove a Baby Smartridge™without
first turning the unit OFF, you may experience a malfunction. If this happens,
and the console does not respond to pressing the ON/OFF button, remove the
batteries from the console unit. Then, reinstall the batteries.
