United States Radio and TV Interference Regulations Important: The Microsoft ActiMates interactive character, the ActiMates TV Pack Transmitter, and /\ BePo' the ActiMates PC Pack Transmitter comply with Part 15 of the U.S. Federal Communica— tions Commission (FCC) Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) these devices may not cause harmful interference, and (2) these devices must accept any interference that may cause undesired operation. character ctronic toy When used together, the ActiMates character and the Transmitter can radiate radio radiare frequency (RF) energy. If not installed and used in strict accordance with the instruc— tions given in the printed documentation, the ActiMates character and the Transmitter may cayse harmful interference with other radio—operated devices‘ reception. Any cable that is connected to the Transmitter must be a shielded cable that is properly grounded. (The cable supplied with the Transmitter is properiy grounded.) The ActiMates character, the TV Pack Transmitter, and the PC Pack Transmitter have been tested, and they comply with the limits for a Class B computing device in accordance with the specifications in Part 15 of the U.S. FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmfUl RF interference in a residential installation. Thereis, however, no guarantee that RF interference will not occur in a particutar installation. To determine if the ActiMates character or the Transmitter is causing interference to other radio—operated devices (for example, baby monitors, cordless phones, radio— controlled toys, etc.), disconnect the Transmitter from your television and VCR or computen, respectively. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Transmitter. v;@; If the ActiMates character or the Transmitter cayses interference to other radio— operated devices in your heme, try the following measures to correct the situation: «_ Move the other radio—operated device to another part ofthe room, away from the ActiMates character and the Transmitter, or move the ActiMates character to a different part of the room. «_ Move the Transmitter to a different location. For example, put theTV Pack Transmit— ter on the floor or on a steree cabinet, or put the PC Pack Transmitter farther away from your computer monitor and the central processing unit. For maximum range, the Transmitter should be at least one foot away from your television, VCR, and the computer. +_ Plug the TV Pack Transmitter into a different power outlet so that the Transmitter is on a different circuit than the television, VCR, and computer. +— if necessary, ask an experienced computer or radio—TV technician for more sugges— tons.

) Before your child begins playing on the computer with the ActiMates character, we encourage you to let your child play with the character for a while as a stand—alone toy. For example, squeeze the sensors in the character‘s hands and feet and see what happens. The character will respond to these same actions softw s. while the software game is running, so the software experience with the ActiMates Arthur and ActiMates character may be more meaningful and fun if your child has had a chance to get to know the character first. To get started using the ActiMates character with your computer 1. Make sure the ActiMates character has fresh batteries installed. For instructions, see the Getting Started manual that came in the box with the ActiMates character. 2 Connect the Transmitter to your computer, as described on the following page. Make sure you turn off your computer before you connect the Transmitter Connecting the Transmitter without first powering off your computer can permanently damage the Transmitter, your computer, or your sound card. 3 Setup the ActiMates software on your computer. For instructions, see the booklet inside the CD—ROM case. 4 Make sure the ActiMates character is within 15 feet (4.6 meters) of the Transmitter. —@— 5 Squeeze the character‘s hand to make sure it‘s turned on. 6 If necessary, adjust the volume of the speakers attached to your computer, so your child can hear both the ActiMates character and the software characters on—screen. 7 Start the software title and begin playing along with the ActiMates character! Placement and Range A The Transmitter communicates with the ActiMates character by means of a radio link. As with most AM/FM radios, the Transmitter is influenced by its placement and proximity to metal. The Transmitter is designed to operate at a maximum of 15 feet (%.6 meters) from the character but this distance can vary depending on where the Transmitter is placed. For best results, the Transmitter should be placed on the work surface, at least one foot (0.3 meters) from the computer, monitor, and speakers. Do not place the Transmitter on top of the monitor, directly on or next to the computer, on or softwars near the speakers, or on a metal syrface. If the Transmitter is placed in such a tocation, the operating distance to the ActiMates character may be reduced. PomaiNa oes 2 a 21398. oo anm $ @t
