Your talking skipping rope comes with the rope and handles separated and will need to be assembled before use. Please refer to the assembly steps below which tell you how to do this.

Button location.
Your talking skipping rope has five buttons on one of the handles. Listed below is where these buttons are located and what they are called.

1) The MODE button. This button is located on the front of the handle with the display and is the button closest to the battery compartment.
2) The SET button can be found on the front of the handle just above the MODE button.
3) The UP/AUTO and DOWN/CLEAR buttons are positioned on the side of the handle next to each other, the UP being at the front of the handle.
4) The TALK button is located on the other side of the handle to the UP and DOWN buttons.
5) The RESET button is located on the back of the unit and will require a pin or paperclip to operate.

Assembly instructions.
Each handle has a swivel joint on the end of it. This is the part where the rope attaches to the handles.

1) Hold one of the handles in one hand and push the rope through the swivel joint side ways. You will notice there are two holes next to each other and it does not matter which one of these you use first.
2) Double back the rope and push it through the hole in the swivel joint next to the one you pushed the rope through first.
3) Pull the rope tight so that it will not slip out of the joint. Now do the same with the other handle.
4)Your skipping rope is now ready for use.
Note: 
This is where you adjust the rope to the right length for the person who is using it by setting the desired length through the swivel joints.

Installing the batteries.
This talking skipping rope uses 2 x AAA Alkaline batteries for power, please follow the steps below for battery installation. The battery compartment can be located on the end of the handle with the display and buttons on it.

1) Open the battery compartment by turning the cap at the end of the handle anti-clockwise.
2) Remove the compartment cap and install the 2 new batteries with the pip on the tip of each battery facing out.
3) Replace the cap by turning it clockwise until it snaps into place. The skipping rope will bleep twice if this has been done correctly.
