aibo Frequently Crouches

Certain situations may interfere with your aibo™ robotic companion’s movement and strength. If aibo repeatedly crouches or doesn't gain any strength:

• Remove any clothes (such as hats, socks, or shoes) becuase they may cause interference.
• Make sure that there are no stickers or debris stuck on it.
• Place aibo on wooden floors that aren't too slippery or on carpets with short threads.
• Make sure that aibo's charging station isn't too close to a wall or any other objects.
  • aibo may crouch if it detects an obstacle while going back to its charging station.

If aibo still crouches after checking the steps above, follow these steps to restart it:

1. On the back of aibo's neck, press and hold the power button for two seconds to turn it off.

   

   • If you turn off aibo while it's on, it finishes its current action and the LED flashes in green, and then goes out to indicate that the power is off.
   • If you turn off aibo while it's in sleep mode, the red status LED goes out to indicate that the power is off.
2. Press and hold the power button for two seconds to turn on aibo.
   • The status LED lights in green.
   • Wait until aibo turns on and starts to move.
