MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

Be sure to check that the Lumalou unit is working. Fit the cord into the socket in the adapter and plug it in. The clock should immediately illuminate. Press the button on the remote. Music and light should start.
Next, choose an outlet near where you plan to mount the Lumalou™ unit. The cord from the Lumalou™ unit should be at least three feet (about one meter) from your child's crib or bed.

1. Locate the Lumalou™ unit and cord wrap cleat templates on pages 23 and 25. Using scissors, cut on the dotted lines to remove from this manual.

   

2. Tack the Lumalou™ template to your wall. Make sure it’s straight. 
   Using a pencil, make a mark through both circles.

   

3. Check to be sure the holes are level.
   Place a level above both pencil marks. The bubble should be in the middle to indicate the pencil marks are level.

   

4. Using a 3/16" (4,76 mm), drill bit, drill one hole through each pencil mark you made on the wall.

   

5. Fit a wall anchor into each of the drilled holes.
   Tap each wall anchor lightly with a hammer until the ends of each wall anchor are even with the surface of the wall.

   

6. Insert a screw into each wall anchor and tighten with a Phillips screwdriver. Do not over-tighten.

   

7. Attach the Lumalou™ unit to the screws. Gently slide the unit down to secure.

   

8. Tack the cord wrap cleat template to the wall so that it is centered below the Loumalou™ unit and as close to the floor  as possible.
   Using a pencil, make  a mark through both circles.

   

9. Check to be sure the holes are level.
   Place a level above both pencil marks.
   The bubble should be in the middle to indicate the pencil marks are level.

   

10. Using a 3/16" (4,76 mm), drill bit, drill one hole through each pencil mark you made on the wall.

    

11. Place a wall anchor into each of the drilled holes.
    Tap each wall anchor lightly with a hammer until the ends of each wall anchor are even with the surface of the wall.

    

12. Align the holes on the cord wrap cleat with the wall anchors.

    

    Insert two screws into the holes in the cord wrap and tighten with a Phillips screwdriver. Do not over-tighten.
    IMPORTANT! Make sure the cord is connected between the Lumalou unit and the cord wrap cleat. Excess cords can form loops and present a strangulation hazard.
    Extend the cord straight down the wall to the cord wrap.
    Wrap the cord around the cord wrap, leaving just enough to reach the wall outlet. Make sure there is no slack.
    Slide the lever on the front of the cord wrap and thread the cord through the groove in the front of the cord wrap. Make sure the cord is fully inserted in the groove.
    Plug the cord into the AC adapter.
    Plug the AC adapter into the wall outlet.
    Use the AC adapter only in a wall outlet. Do not plug the adapter into a ceiling outlet.

13. If the Lumalou unit begins to operate erratically, you may need to reset the electronics. Unplug the AC adapter for approximately 10 seconds and plug it back in.

There are eight tasks and three custom tasks (you assign them) to create a routine.

LET'S CREATE A ROUTINE

• First assign a name to the routine. For example, you could name it "Morning".
• Next, create the routine by selecting tasks in the order you would like them completed. 

• Remember, you can create your own task. For example, you can assign "Brush Your Hair to the asterisk icon. 

  

• Then, choose each day of the week this routine should be followed. Use the pull down menu to select a start time for the routine. 

MONDAY
You can create multiple routines but only one routine can be saved per day.

NAP TIME

Touch to start nap time on your device or press the button  on the underside of the remote. The start button changes to a stop button if you'd like to stop the nap timer or press the same button  on the underside of the remote.

Touch this button on the home screen to play your light and sound choices during a nap. Or press the top button on the remote.

START A ROUTINE

When it's time to start  a routine, all of the tasks will pulse until your child presses the button on the remote. Then, only the first task lights.  You can end the routine at any time using the app or by pressing the button  on the underside of the remote.

TASK COMPLETED

After completing a task, your child must press the button on the remote to move on to the next task. Complete all tasks in the routine for a fun reward.

TIME TO GET UP

A press of the remote button lets your child know when it is time to sleep or time to wake up.
Red star means it's time to sleep. Green star means it's time to wake up!

Here's some help:
If the Lumalou™ unit is unplugged or the power in your home goes out, you will lose the current time. Without the current time, the routine and sleep trainer functions will be disabled until you  re-connect the Lumalou™ unit to the app.
