Getting started

This section describes how to get your Rovio up and running.

Battery and power requirements

This section describes the battery and power requirements for Rovio and its charging
dock with built-in TrueTrack Beacon.

Rovio
Rovio uses a rechargeable 6 V NiMH battery pack (included).

Charging dock and TrueTrack™ Beacon
The charging dock with built-in TrueTrack™ Beacon requires power from an 8V AC/DC
adapter.

Assembling the charging dock

When you first open the Rovio package the charging dock will be in two parts. You
will need to put the parts together and then set up the built-in TrueTrack Beacon.

Location

In order for Rovio to accurately self-dock, the charging dock should ideally be placed
where it will not be disturbed and preferably against a wall. Ideally, the room should
have a flat ceiling no higher than about 10-12 feet (3-3.6 meters) with a clear space
onto which the built-in TrueTrack Beacon can project its infrared beams. Air vents,
large light panels or chandeliers, tall objects or furniture might prevent Rovio from
detecting the signal that is projected onto the ceiling.

Important power adapter information

Examine the AC/DC adapter regularly for damage to the cord, plug, enclosure and other parts.

The AC/DC adapter is not a toy.

Equipment liable to be cleaned with liquid are to be disconnected from the transformer

before cleaning.
