How the 3-step sleep program and cry sensor work on the Zazu ocean projectors Cody and Otto, how to wash the plush cover, and the manuals for each projector.

The sleep program
How does the 3-step sleep program work?
- Phase one: waves and orange fish swim around the room while soothing ocean sounds play. This catches your baby's attention.
- Phase two: the light is dimmer, the waves keep moving and only a few fish swim around the room. The sound changes to underwater bubbles.
- Phase three: the waves are calm, the fish are sleeping and there is no sound, ready for sleep.
The whole program takes 30 minutes and then switches off by itself.
Sometimes there are fewer fish. Is that right?
Yes. From phase two of the sleep program only a few fish swim around the room, to make a quieter setting for falling asleep.
How long does the cry sensor work?
Each time you start a new sleep program, the cry sensor is active for 12 hours. You need to switch the cry sensor on first, using the switch on the bottom of the module.
When the cry sensor hears crying, the sleep program restarts from phase two to settle your baby again.
Can I use Cody or Otto without sound?
Yes. On the bottom of the module there is a music choice switch. Set it to OFF.
Care
Can the plush cover be washed?
Yes. Remove the module first, then hand wash the plush cover and let it air dry.
