Living with the AIBO® Entertainment Robot Charging The AIBO® Entertainment Robot's source of energy is its battery which has to be regularly charged. When using the lithium-ion battery ERA-7B1, the AIBO robot can operate (in Autonomous mode) for about 1.5 hours on a full charge. The AIBO robot can also find the Energy Station by itself (self-charging function). Caution The life of each battery depends on its usage and age. How to charge the AIBO robot Whenever you place the AIBO robot on the Energy Station, charging begins. If you place the AIBO robot on the Energy Station while it is active, it will relax and wait patiently while charging is in progress. While being charged... The operation light on the back of the AIBO robot turns orange. Caution • There should not be any objects within reach of the AIBO robot's front legs. Otherwise the legs may hit and overturn the object when the AIBO robot tries to move, or the AIBO robot may fall off the Energy Station. • If the AIBO robot's body is too warm when being placed on the Energy Station, charging will only start after it has cooled down. • Do not move the AIBO robot's rear legs while in Station mode. Otherwise the front legs, which move in Station mode, may hit the rear legs, causing damage. Display indication While charging The pump handle moves up and down. When charging is complete The pump handle stops moving and all hose segments are lit. If all three segments of the battery indicator are flashing, the battery is not charging properly. Check to see whether the battery is inserted correctly. If the flashing continues, contact AIBO Customer Link (customer service). 51
