Through care and nurturing, Fred and Didi will grow up to the age of six using their growth algorithm. In age 1, their movement looks somewhat unnatural, but as they get older, their motions develop along with their personality.

Battery Information

• Installation of batteries should be done by an adult.

• Mousies™ take 3 x "AAA"/LR03 batteries (not included).

• Open the battery case cover on the back of your mousie by undoing the fixing screw, pushing the pink button on the top of the head and sliding the cover backwards. The

batteries should be inserted with two on the bottom (both with '+'

facing towards the Mousies™ front). Place the 3rd battery inside the compartment under the battery

cover. (with '+' facing the other way.)

• The battery layout is printed in the bottom of the battery compartment

• The battery cover should then be

slid back on, and the fixing screw tightened, before the mousie is turned on again.

• When the mousie is awoken it will play a warning sound (discharging sound).

When to change the MouisesBattery

When the mousie becomes slow you will know that he/she needs new batteries.

Before changing the batteries, please make sure that mousie is in sleep mode. If you don't change the batteries quickly, the Mousies™ Algorithm may return to its initial state.

Batteries should last 60 days if the mousie is in constant sleep mode.

DO NOT DISPOSE OF BATTERIES IN FIRE. BATTERIES INSIDE THIS PRODUCT MAY EXPLODE OR LEAK.

TO ENSURE PROPER FUNCTION:

Do not mix old and new batteries.

Do not mix alkaline, standard or rechargeable batteries.

Battery installation should be done by an adult.

Non-rechargeable batteries are not to be recharged.

Rechargeable batteries are to be removed from the toy before being charged (if removable).

Rechargeable batteries are only to be charged under adult supervision (if removable).

Only batteries of the same or equivalent type as recommended are to be used.

Batteries are to be inserted with the correct polarity.

Exhausted batteries are to be removed from the toy.

The supply terminals are not to be short circuited.

Age (Algorithm)

When you first turn your mousie on, its Algorithm is in age 1 and it will sing “Happy Birthday”.

Whenever your mousie gets another stage older, it also sings "Happy Birthday".

The more time you spend playing and having fun with it, the faster the development will happen.

You can tell how old your mousie is by counting the number of times its nose blinks when you turn it on.

In the mousie’s 1st stages of development, it gets older quickly. As the mousie develops it takes more time to age so be patient and play with it as much as possible.
