We hope the following tips help you enjoy hours of fun with the Digital Light-Designer!

Troubleshooting tips if the unit is not functioning as expected:

1. Check that new, fresh batteries are being used and installed correctly.
2. The unit needs to be placed on a flat, hard, level surface so the switch underneath is engaged.
3. Does the Red LED on the wand light up? If not, check the batteries are in properly and are new.
4. If you cannot get past the main menu screen, turn off nearby lights in the room or move out of direct sunlight. Strong outside or indoor light can interfere with the operation of the unit.
5. The wand is similar to a remote. It needs to be aimed rather than held like a pencil. It works from about an inch away, with the light beam on or tap wand directly on the dome surface.
6. When the unit is turned on, the unit cycles the colors line by line. You can interrupt this process by tapping on the dome. If you don't see the colored lines, something in the room is causing interference.
7. You cannot draw on the top of the dome, only the sides.
8. To rotate the displayed image, hold the stylus on the dock (the 2 white lines near the base). The lines will turn red, then blue. When the lines turn blue, move the stylus along the dock to rotate the images around the Digital Light-Designer.
9. There are 3 menus available; however, only 2 appear at first.
10. Two wands CANNOT be used at the same time. Two wands cause issues similar to having lights on in the room.
11. What type of adapter are you using? USE ONLY AC ADAPTERS WITH MATCHING SPECIFICATIONS: INPUT: 100-120VAC, 50-60 Hz, 0.8A / OUTPUT: 6.0VDC, 2.0A, 12.0W/VA

It’s glow time! We have some tips to help you get the best results from Crayola Glow Fusion.

1. The Glow Fusion technology is a marker-paper system. The paper and marker set combined work together to give your masterpieces up to four hours of glow time.
2. Protect your work surfaces. Glow Fusion Markers are not washable.
3. When the markers (activated or not) are not in use, cap and lay them flat in the marker tray to prevent leaking.
4. For the brightest glow effect, use the markers promptly after activating.
5. To activate the markers:
   • Bend the marker barrel at the star points to crack the glow capsules.
   • Shake the capped marker for 5 seconds.
   • Remove the cap and hold the marker tip down until it glows.
6. Turn off the lights to see your art shine at its brightest!

• The handle will light up and cycle through all the colors. When that is done, press the bristles in the middle of the paint pad for a few seconds.The handle will temporarily light up the color of the paint. Brush the bristles against the paint pad several times. An invisible layer of paint will stick to the bristles. Brush onto Color Wonder Paper and watch the colors magically appear! 
• Between each color change, wipe the bristles with a dry paper towel.
• To store the unit, snap the cover on to protect the color pads. Since the paint pads will not dry out, the cover does not need to be airtight and replacing the paint pads is not necessary. The paint pads are securely sealed in the unit during the manufacturing process and not removable, so we do not recommend attempting to remove them. 

• Use Phillips screwdriver to loosen 2 battery cover screws on battery compartment.
• Insert three (3) AA alkaline batteries. Ensure All 3 battery nibs (+ ends) face to the LEFT - see image below.
• Replace battery cover & tighten the screws.

• To help preserve battery life, the Magic Light Brush will automatically turn off after 5 minutes if unused.
• To reactivate, push power switch to "off" and then back "on". Turn the power switch off and then on.

Our experts recommend the following tips for best results.

• A little ink goes a long way! A few drops of the ink is all you need for your masterpiece.
• Don't pump too fast. This could cause your unit to skip. If this happens, slow down and start again.
• After you're finished creating, clean your unit by wiping it with a paper towel.
• Use the storage compartment on the bottom of the base to stay organized.
