Enjoying the AIBO
®
Entertainment Robot’s
development
When the AIBO robot is adopted, it is already mature, and is
autonomously active, walking around and playing with its
AIBOne toy and pink ball. However, you can also switch it to
the puppy stage, which will allow you to enjoy raising the
AIBO robot from a puppy.
If you decide to go back to a mature AIBO robot, you can
switch it back. However, please note that your AIBO robot
will lose all maturity and accumulated development data when you switched it to the puppy
stage, and you will be going back to the maturity level it was at when you first adopted the
AIBO robot.
Putting the AIBO robot in the puppy stage
You can enjoy the joys of being the parent of a newborn AIBO robot by switching the AIBO
robot to the puppy stage. As a puppy, the AIBO robot will have difficulty trying to stand up
by itself, and you will enjoy raising it to a mature AIBO robot.
See page 97 for information on how to raise the AIBO robot from the puppy stage.
Caution
• Note that putting the AIBO robot in the puppy stage will erase everything it has learned about you from
its memory. If you decide to switch the AIBO robot back to mature stage, it will start from the maturity
level it was at when you first adopted the AIBO robot.
Even if you return the AIBO robot to puppy stage, pictures you have taken and picture data from House
Sitting mode will not be erased.
However, picture data for the registered owner’s face, favorite things, and favorite place will be erased.
• If you use maturity control to put the AIBO robot from the mature to the puppy stage, the number of
days active in that day’s diary will return to one. Previously written diary entries will remain unchanged.
For details on the diary function, see the “User Guide (AIBO Entertainment Player)” (PDF).
