4. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
This robot requires periodic maintenance and cleaning.
Clean it with a slightly damp cloth.
Handle your Spykee with care and keep it in a clean area, sheltered from dust.
Do not attempt to open it or repair your Spykee yourself.
Its batteries must only be changed by specialists = please contact After Sales Service in this event.
The "barred trashcan" symbol found on your robot and its recharging station means that these
products must, at the end of their lifetime, be delivered to special waste collection points:
Municipal waste dumps with specific bins for this kind of device
Collection bins at the point-of-sale
They will be recycled there, thus avoiding the discharge of regulated substances into the environment, and
allowing the materials that make up your Spykee to be reused.
In member countries of the European Union
These selective collection points are accessible free of charge.
All products containing the "barred trashcan" symbol must be delivered to these collection points.
In countries that are not members of the European Union
Any equipment marked with the "barred trashcan" should not be disposed of in ordinary trash cans if your country
or region has special organizations in place for collection and recycling, and this equipment should be brought to
these collection points so that it may be recycled.
5. PRIVACY
You are reminded that you must abide by the rules and laws in force in your country on taking photographs and
sound recording. In accordance with these rules and laws, it is sometimes strictly forbidden to takes photos and/or
make recordings of the voice or any personal attribute and to reproduce or distribute them, since it could be
considered a breach of privacy.
It is the user's sole responsibility to ensure that if required he has prior permission to take a picture and/or record
the voice of another person. The manufacturer, distributor or seller of your Spykee Cell will not be held liable for
any inappropriate use of your robot.
6. THE BATTERIES
Do not recharge non-rechargeable batteries.

Used batteries must be removed from the toy.
Battery terminals must not be short circuited.
Used batteries must be disposed of at a recycling center.
Please use Saline or Alkaline batteries.
Lithium batteries should not be used in this robot.
For your information, using rechargeable batteries will reduce the robot's operating time.
II.
INITIAL USE
A. INFORMATION ABOUT BLUETOOTH® TECHNOLOGY
Bluetooth® is a short range wireless technology, which allows several electronic devices equipped with this
technology to be connected together.
The theoretical range of Bluetooth® for a mobile phone is 10 metres. If you direct your robot beyond this
reception zone it will stop automatically.
Notes:
Bluetooth® wireless technology allows transmission of pictures and sound. However, it is important to
realise that the larger the size of the image, the more staccato or delayed the motion on your mobile phone
screen will be.
For optimum connection between your mobile phone and your Spykee Cell robot, we recommend that you
avoid obstacles between the two devices.
B. BUILDING YOUR SPYKEE CELL
1) Read the assembly instructions included in the box.
2) Select your model and assemble it following the instructions!
C. INSTALLING THE “SPYKEE CELL” APPLICATION
1) Download onto your computer the “Spykee Cell” application installation files for your mobile phone.
2) Connect your computer to your mobile phone with the connecting cable (generally supplied with your mobile
phone), by infra-red or by using Bluetooth®. The choice of connection depends on your model of mobile
phone and computer.
3) Install the “Spykee Cell” application on your mobile phone following the instructions supplied by your mobile
phone manufacturer.
During the installation procedure, several security warnings may appear. Please validate them to be able to use
the “Spykee Cell” program.
So that the Spykee Cell program works correctly, ensure your mobile phone is kept up to date. To do that,
visit your mobile phone manufacturer's website.
To control your iPod® from your mobile phone, ensure your iPod's software is up to date. To do that:
1. Download the latest version of iTunes from the Apple website: http://www.apple.com/fr/itunes/download/
2. Connect your iPod® to your computer, launch iTunes and update your iPod® following the instructions supplied
by Apple.
D. POWERING UP SPYKEE CELL
1) Switch on Spykee Cell by moving the button under the chassis to the "ON" position.
2) A red light on Spykee Cell comes on. Then the robot will search nearby for a telephone to which it had been
previously linked in hands free mode. If the phone is found, you will hear a “beep”, “beep”. If the phone is not
detected, you will hear the sound of a bell. In both cases, the robot has powered up correctly and will
continue its initialisation. When this has finished, another beep will sound. You robot is then ready.
3) If the red lights on your Spykee Cell do not come on after several seconds, or you do not hear the “beep” or
the red optic fibers hardly light up : check the power button is definitely “ON”. If it is, your robot's batteries
may be discharged so replace them. To do that read the assembly instructions.
E. CONNECTING YOUR MOBILE PHONE TO SPYKEE CELL
1) Check your mobile phone is switched on.
2) Activate your mobile phone's Bluetooth® function.
3) Once Bluetooth® has been switched on:
Access your telephone's Main Menu.
Look for the “Spykee Cell” program in your mobile phone and open it.
A picture of Spykee Cell appears on your screen:
- A Warning Message might appear asking if you want to allow the “Spykee“ program to use the
connectivity applications : say Yes.
- Wait a few seconds for connection to be established *
* The first connection takes the longest, it can take up to 45 seconds. Following ones are faster.
4) You will come to the Spykee Cell program Main Menu and you can now control your robot.
If you have not activated Bluetooth® on your mobile phone or it is disabled, when you try to connect a
warning message might appear saying “Bluetooth Disabled”. Switch on Bluetooth® !

SPYKEE CELL FUNCTIONS
A. "START" MENU: CONTROLLING SPYKEE CELL
Before making Spykee Cell move, ensure the robot is on the ground or away from the edge of a table for
instance, to avoid any risk of it falling and being damaged.
If you move Spykee Cell beyond the range of Bluetooth®, you will lose contact. If you stay out of range too
long you will not be able to re-establish connection.
In the Spykee Cell program Main Menu, select "Start", wait a few seconds, the picture seen by Spykee Cell will
appear on your mobile phone and you can then take control of the robot.
7. MOVING SPYKEE CELL
Use the multidirectional navigation button on your mobile phone to move Spykee Cell in the desired direction.
By pressing the multidirectional button once, Spykee Cell will make a small movement in the desired direction, a
second pulse will give it a longer movement and keeping the button pressed produces continuous movement
while the button is held down.
You can move Spykee Cell more quickly with the "TURBO" function:
To activate the "TURBO" function, press once on your phone's "8" key. Once selected, the word "TURBO" on

Make sure you only move Spykee Cell within a maximum radius of 10 metres. If your robot moves out of range it
will stop automatically, the picture will freeze and you will receive a warning message: "Connection lost :
Spykee is out of range or is powered off". Move closer to your Spykee Cell, if you do it quickly (in under 10
seconds) the connection will be re-established automatically; otherwise you will have to re-connect your mobile
phone to Spykee Cell manually.
