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.
