Important notes

Do not give Robosapien™V2 anything valuable or fragile to hold. He
may throw or drop things unexpectedly.
To understand Robosapien™V2 it helps to learn what each blink
state represents. Watch his eyes and actions.
Robosapien™V2 will walk best on smooth surfaces. If he is having
difficulty walking on a surface, try changing his gait for better
performance. Robosapien™V2 responds to remote control
commands more easily when you are situated in front of him. He will
not detect commands as well if the controller is behind him.
Infrared functions can be affected by bright sunlight, fluorescent
and electronically dimmed lighting. For more information consult
the Robosapien™V2's VISION SYSTEMS section (p.21-22) in this
manual.
Robosapien™V2 will set himself in the correct body position for
walking. If you try to move his arms with the controller, he will
stop walking. If you manually move the arms or waist while he is
walking he will continue to walk but could lose his balance and
fall over.
Upon activation Robosapien™V2 will be sensitive to sound, vision,
and touch: this is his default mode. He will be in this mode every
time he is activated after a full power down.
Robosapien™V2's infrared vision system is based on reflection.
This means that he can see highly reflective surfaces like white
walls or mirrors much easier and at greater distances than he
can see matte or black surfaces.
If he sees colors incorrectly, be sure to set his white balance for
your lighting background in your room.
Caution: the head contains many sensors and should be handled
with care.
