FAQs
Does this product require batteries?
No, this is a non-electronic inflatable prop and does not require batteries.
Can this be used in a swimming pool?
No, this product is designed as a costume accessory and is not manufactured for use as a flotation device.
How do I deflate it for storage?
Open the air valve and gently squeeze the air out of the unit, then fold it flat.
Is the material safe for children?
The item conforms to EN71 safety standards, but it should be supervised by adults as it is a large inflatable novelty item.
What happens if it gets a small hole?
Because it is a lightweight plastic novelty item, small punctures can sometimes be repaired with standard clear vinyl repair tape, though the aesthetic may be affected.
Troubleshooting
The phone loses air shortly after inflation.
Ensure the valve plug is pressed completely flush into the valve opening to create an airtight seal.
Small wrinkles remain after inflation.
Gently massage the plastic near the seams while inflating; avoid over-inflating as this can burst the seams.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your inflatable phone, identify the air valve, typically located near the base or back of the unit. You can inflate it by mouth or with a small manual hand pump. Once inflated, ensure the valve is securely pressed shut to prevent air leakage. Because the item is made of plastic, store it away from direct heat sources and sharp objects to avoid thinning or tears. If the surface becomes dirty, gently wipe it down with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap; do not use harsh chemical cleaners or submerge the unit in water, as this may trap moisture inside the seams.
