Growing up
With AIBO Life, AIBO grows from baby to adult.
Its maturing stages are divided into four: Baby stage, Childhood stage,
Adolescence stage and Adult stage. The Baby stage is further divided into three
sub-stages, and the Child stage and Adolescence stage are divided into two sub-
stages respectively.
After AIBO enters the Child stage, its character varies depending on how you treat
AIBO, and how you raise AIBO. Variation of the character of AIBO is described in
details on page 94. If you like it, it may be more joyful to observe how AIBO
grows up without reading this description.
To find out what stage/sub-stage AIBO is at, and what character AIBO has, ask it
“How old are you?” It answers by using its horn light and legs (see page 94.)
z Hints
• The character of AIBO changes according to how you treat AIBO or change of its
environment even when it is at the same stage.
• The character of AIBO develops into the next phase only when it wakes up from Sleep
mode or Pause mode. It announces that its character has developed into the next phase
by making special sounds.
