1. Introduction to Your Toniebox
The Toniebox is an innovative, screen-free audio player designed for children aged 3 and up. It provides an engaging way for kids to listen to stories, music, and educational content, inspiring imagination without the need for over-stimulating screens. Its intuitive design allows even the youngest users to operate it independently.
2. Setup Guide
Getting started with your Toniebox is a simple, one-time process. Follow these steps to prepare your device for use:
- Charging: Place the Toniebox on its charging station. The charging station is designed for easy on-off placement. A full charge provides approximately seven hours of battery life for portable use.
- Initial Setup: Download the mytonies app on your smartphone or visit my.tonies.com/setup on a computer. Follow the on-screen instructions to connect your Toniebox to your Wi-Fi network. Wi-Fi is only required for the initial setup and when downloading new Tonie content.
- First Tonie: Once connected, place the included Playtime Puppy Tonie on top of the Toniebox. The content will automatically begin to download and play.
3. Operating the Toniebox
The Toniebox is designed for intuitive and independent play:
- Starting Playback: Simply place any Tonie audio character on top of the Toniebox. Playback begins automatically.
- Stopping Playback: Remove the Tonie character from the Toniebox to pause or stop the audio.
- Volume Control: Press the small ears on top of the Toniebox to adjust the volume. Pressing the larger ear increases volume, and the smaller ear decreases it.
