Usage Instructions

AIBO should be sitting down ready to start when you play a dance song. NOTE: Disco AIBO doesn't do anything else.

Play one of the songs on your computer.

AIBO must hear the first part of the song. AIBO will dance along with the song. If AIBO falls on his face, help him up. If AIBO jams, unjam it (by holding the head) and it will restart the personality and wait for the next dance to begin. When done with dancing, shut down AIBO by pressing the chest button (or just pull out the stick).

1. Play one of the songs on your computer. Make sure your AIBO can hear the first part of the song. AIBO will dance along with the song.
2. If AIBO falls on his face, help him up (some dances are not tuned for the 11x)
3. After playing, you can restore your backup, or leave the Disco personality on the memory stick

WARNING:
The first time you playback any Disco AIBO steps, be sure your AIBO is on a soft surface (carpet recommended). Some dance steps may cause AIBO to fall down. That is part of the charm of the dances. Help out a fallen AIBO be helping him stand/sit up and continuing to dance.
As always use at your own risk.
