When not playing with AIBO
This section describes what you should do when you will not be playing with
AIBO for some time.
When you are going out / going to sleep
When not playing with AIBO for a few hours, set it to the sleep mode. The
battery discharges slightly while AIBO is sleeping, so place AIBO on the
station to keep the battery from running out.
There are two types of sleep modes.
• Sleep 8: AIBO will sleep for eight hours, and automatically transfer to the
autonomous mode and wake up. You can also wake it by gently
shaking it.
• Sleep: AIBO keeps on sleeping until you wake it up.
Press the buttons as listed below to set AIBO to the sleep mode.
AIBO will bend its head and goes to sleep.
