The AIBO

®

Entertainment

Robot does not self-charge.

• The station pole and station marker are not mounted correctly.

c Attach these parts correctly (page 34).

• The AIBO robot cannot recognize the station marker due to its

surroundings.
c Make the room brighter (fluorescent lighting is

recommended), and remove any objects from around the
Energy Station that are similar in color to those of the
station pole and/or station marker. Next, perform a sensor
check in Clinic mode (page 135) to test whether the AIBO
robot can find the Energy Station.

• The AIBO robot is set to not self-charge.

c Select the desired setting for self-charge/no self-charge

(page 60).

After self-charge is
completed, the AIBO robot
does not leave the Energy
Station on its own. Power to
the AIBO robot is suddenly
cut off.

• A battery other than specified for guaranteed operation has

been inserted.
c Use only the specified battery (ERA-7B2) for the ERS-

7M3.

The AIBO robot self-charges,
although it is set to not self-
charge.

• When voice recognition or AIBO card recognition occurs, the

AIBO robot will start to self-charge.

Cannot perform owner
registration.

• The AIBO robot cannot clearly identify your face.

c Hold your head straight without tilting it to the side. If you

are wearing a distinctive item, such as thick-rimmed
glasses, or if your hair is covering your face, the AIBO
robot may find it difficult to identify you.

c Because recognition may also fail if the room is poorly lit,

or there is a light source behind you, perform registration in
a brightly lit room. Fluorescent lighting is recommended.
