Operating Instructions
The 3-in-1 system offers three distinct modes to support your child's potty training journey:
1. Potty Seat Mode
Use the complete unit as a standalone potty. The removable pot features a pour spout for easy and hygienic cleanup.

2. Potty Topper Mode
When your child is ready to transition to an adult toilet, simply remove the potty topper from the base and place it securely onto most standard adult-sized toilets (round, elongated, and D-shape). The topper includes an integrated splash guard and handles for added security and comfort.

3. Double Step Stool Mode
Close the lid on the base unit to convert it into a double step stool. This allows your child to reach standard adult-sized toilets and bathroom sinks independently. The step stool features a non-skid bottom for enhanced safety.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular cleaning is essential for hygiene and product longevity.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Ingenuity Prepare to Potty 3-in-1 System, please refer to the following common concerns:
- Lid is difficult to open: Ensure the lid is not jammed or obstructed. Apply gentle, even pressure when opening. If the issue persists, check for any debris in the hinge mechanism.
- Potty topper feels unstable on adult toilet: Verify that the potty topper is correctly positioned on the adult toilet seat. It is designed to fit most standard round, elongated, and D-shape toilets. Ensure the adult toilet seat itself is stable.
- Step stool slides on floor: The step stool features a non-skid bottom. Ensure the floor surface is clean and dry to maximize grip. Avoid using on wet or excessively slippery surfaces.
