8 PLAY WITH CHiP™ GETTING STARTED CHiP™ has omnidirectional wheels, so he can move in all directions – from side to side, left, right, forward, backward and spin around. Children should be careful when playing with CHiP™’s feet and should not put their fingers in his wheels. There are four wheel guards included in the CHiP™ package in order to prevent this. We recommend that parents of younger children install the wheel guards by following the "Wheel Guard Installation Sheet".
9 PLAY WITH CHiP™ MOVEMENT DETECTION CHiP™ can detect when you are moving him around. He will jump forward if you push him from the front and if you push him from the back, he might look a little annoyed. If you push him from side to side, he will also react! CHiP™ also knows when he has been picked up. If you shake him too much, he will become dizzy. But he does like to spin around! Hold him and spin around and he will be happy. NOTE: See the"Tricks" section in the CHiP™ App for full list.
10 PLAY WITH CHiP™ - CHiP SMARTBALL™ CHiP™ loves his accessories, and you don’t need the app to enjoy using them to play with him! He can respond to his CHiP SmartBall™ and to commands sent from the CHiP SmartBand™, when they are in range and powered up. The accessories use both Bluetooth® and IR sensors. He can typically detect the CHiP SmartBall™ and the CHiP SmartBand™ within about 10 feet (3 meters). If you are not in range, CHiP™ will miss the command.
PLAY WITH CHiP™ - CHiP SMARTBAND™ GETTING STARTED The CHiP SmartBand™ is a key part of the CHiP™ experience. When you wear it, you and CHiP™ are connected. PAIRING THE CHIP SMARTBALL™ AND CHIP SMARTBAND™ WEARING THE CHIP SMARTBAND™ The first time you use CHiP™, you might have to pair him with the CHiP SmartBall™ and CHiP SmartBand™. To do so, turn it on and then hold it on CHiP™’s back for a few seconds. The LED will stop flashing once the item is paired with CHiP™.
12 PLAY WITH CHiP™ - CHiP SMARTBAND™ The Like Button: The Like button is how CHiP™ learn’s what reactions you like best. TAP For every CHiP™ input, there’s about 3-5 outputs. Hitting the Like button means the outputs will become less randomized and more catered to the one you like best. For example, when you touch CHiP™’s snout, CHiP™ will elicit three reactions- a kiss, a pant, and a growl. Hit like for your favorite and CHiP™ will react that way more consistently moving forward.
CUSTOM VOICE COMMAND NAMING YOUR CHIP™ To rename your CHiP™, you’ll need to open up the CHiP™ App. In the settings menu, hit the button that reads “Change Voice Command”. This will prompt a screen that asks you to record your own voice instead. Tap the green microphone to begin. Be sure to pick a name with two syllables. This will make it easier for CHiP™ to decipher, and he’ll be more responsive towards it as a result.
14 SLEEP & STANDBY MODE ENERGY SAVING MODES CHiP™ comes equipped with multiple energy saving options to stay active and conserve energy. See below for explanation for each. IDLE MODE CHiP™ loves human interaction, if you do not give CHiP™ any attention for approximately 2 minutes, CHiP™ will try to get your attention. After approximately 10 minutes, CHiP™ will start exploring the area (for 1 minute) to see what is around. He will keep this routine for up to 30 minutes before he enters Standby Mode.
