The functions on the silly diver are extremely easy to manipulate. There are 4 buttons total and even though some sex toys can be confusing or annoying, this one was not. I didn't read any directions for the use of it because it didn't come with any. I guess we just had to wing it and hope that we could figure it out. I knew how to get it to work the way I wanted, even without any instructions. I will explain the use of the functions just because it's easier to understand.
There are 6 tiny, illuminated LED lights total on the control panel. There are 3 at the top and 3 at the bottom. These are shaped like tiny hearts.
The top 3 are for the shaft rotation. On the lowest setting, one lights up and stays solid, for the medium setting, 2 light up and stay solid. For the fastest setting and 3rd setting, all 3 stars light up and stay solid.
For the clitoral illumination, the first two settings which are low and medium vibrations; all 3 bottom lights blink together quickly. For the 3rd setting which is high vibrations, all 3 lights become solid.
The rest of the settings go with the lights. The patterns that I will describe below are in tune with the LED lighting. I like this function. It helps to light up the control pad when in a dark room. They are still bright enough to see in a well lit room.
The 7 functions are described below:
To turn on the silly diver, just push/press any of the buttons on the top or bottom of the control pad to start the vibration/rotation. You then choose your level of excitement from the following controls.
There are 4 buttons on the control pad. The top two controls that have an up arrow and a down arrow are for the shaft rotation, the up makes it go faster and the down makes it go slower.
The middle button is the button with two curved arrows, this button controls the reverse action. This is for if you want to quickly reverse the way the shaft is going for a different sensation.
The bottom button with the squiggly line is for all of the functions for the clitoral stimulation. All 7 functions are controlled with this one button.

The settings on this toy have to be some of the easiest that I have used. They are located at the perfect locations for my fingers. I have small hands and I could operate it with ease. I didn't have to fiddle around with it and take out the toy to get it how I wanted. I managed to do it all with one hand while in the bath tub. Test it out a few times before use just to familiarize yourself with how it works. I played around with it a bit just to get a feel for the controls. I held it upside down while I messed around with it. After all, that is the way that I would always be using it; so what better way to start? I watched the rotations and felt them with my hand. I tightened my hand around the beads to see if they would jam with pressure, they did not. All of the tests that I gave to this toy, it passed! This toy had it all. I just couldn't wait to put it inside of myself! My first time in the bath with this big boy was incredible!
I was careful in the bath because even though the toy packaging states that is is indeed waterproof; I read where a few people have lost their favorite toys because water seemed to get into the battery compartment somehow. When I took out the battery cradle, I noticed that there was no rubber O-ring inside to ensure that the water wouldn't get in. This worried me a bit but I put everything back in snugly and used it in the bath WITHOUT submerging it. I didn't submerge it because I didn't want to take the chance. So while we are talking about the battery compartment, I will explain how to put the batteries in.
The battery compartment is on the very bottom of the toy, on the plastic handle. While you have the toy in front of yourself, hold it where the clitoral arm is directly in front of you, on the top. Take the battery cover and turn it slightly to your left. You will feel the click to let you know that it was opened. If you have longer nails, this may be a bit of a struggle at first. I have longer nails and I thought of an easier way to open the cover:
I bent my index finger onto the cover and flattened the side of my thumb against it. I turned it to the left and there were no more problems. Now, I just needed to remember to do this next time. It's on more snugly because it is meant to be waterproof so it makes a nice tight seal.
Once you take the cover off, there is a battery cradle that slides out. The cradle is 2 1/4" long and 4" in circumference. On one side, it holds 2 batteries and they go in opposite of each other. On the other side, there is a place for one battery. At one end of the cradle, there are the two metal connectors coming off of one end, that touch against the metal connectors inside the toy. This cradle slides in and out easily. There is only one way to slide it inside so you won't waste time sliding it in different ways to find out that it was the wrong way. There are curved grooves and once you match it up, it slides right in. Don't shove it in against the connector. There's no need, it just sits perfectly near the cap. To put the cover back on, just grab it with your index finger bent and your thumb against it and make sure the largest part is on the bottom and the thinnest on top. Pick up the silly diver like I had you do before and place the cover onto the handle and turn right. You should feel it go into place and then you won't be able to budge it. This cover creates a good seal.
