Insert three AAA alkaline batteries (sold
separately) in the WonderBorg, as shown
in the diagram. Be careful to insert the
batteries the right way.

battery box. Be careful to position the
battery cover with the holes positioned
as shown in the diagram.

then stop immediately. The WonderBorg
will make a beeping noise, and the green
LED will light up.

5-5

Place your WonderBorg on the leg and Antenna
Bending Template on the page 56 of this
manual. Bend the legs and antennae to match
the illustration. They can be adjusted to
any position. Once you have finished the
adjustments, turn the power OFF.

If the WonderBorg does not work, check
whether you have made a mistake in the
assembly operation.
Points to check:
-

Are the connectors plugged in correctly?

-

Are the batteries inserted the
right way?

The bending of the legs and antennae is
now complete.
Note: When the power is ON, the legs may
move, so turn the power ON before adjusting
them.

Extra Information

By changing the angle of the motor units,
you can adjust the height of the WonderBorg.
Note: If you adjust the angle of the motor
units closer to the vertical direction
(making the body higher), the WonderBorg
will walk more smoothly over obstacles,
but it will also be more prone to falling
over.
Likewise, if you adjust the angle of the
motor units closer to the horizontal
direction (making the body lower), the
WonderBorg will be less prone to falling
over, but it will also be less inclined
to walk over obstacles. The angle is altered
in four stages.
