Caring for Your Electronic Slinky®
- Electronic Slinky® is a toy, but it is also
an advanced, electronic device and
should be cared for as such.
- Electronic Slinky® should be stored
indoors at room temperature.
Electronic Slinky® should never be
allowed to
get wet. If Electronic Slinky® does get
wet, leave overnight indoors to dry
out before attempting to use again.
- Do not over-stretch the coils on
Electronic Slinky®. Once you start to
stretch Electronic Slinky® past 4 feet
in length, you can cause permanent damage or possible
breakage.
- Always store Electronic Slinky® in the stacked, upright position
to avoid warping the coils.
Stairs Mode:
Note: Electronic Slinky® will walk down some stairs better than others. Carpeted stairs work better than hard steel or concrete
stairs, which over time, will damage Electronic Slinky. It takes time to find the best way to walk him, but when slinky falls or rolls
down the stairs, he lets you know what he likes with hilarious reactions!
1. Start by placing Slinky
on the stairs as shown.
Games Mode:
In games mode, you can choose from 3 games, Squeeze Me, Catch Me and Follow Me.
Press the select button until Slinky® announces the game you wish to play. Press start to play the game you have chosen.
Squeeze Me
The object of "Squeeze Me" is to keep slinky® moving and grooving
until he tells you to "SQUEEZE ME." When Slinky® says "Squeeze
Me" you must close him up as fast as you can. It is important that
while you keep tipping Slinky® from side to side to keep his lights
moving, you remember to let each light go to the end, or final lighted
ring. If the light does not reach the end before changing directions,
you will lose that round.
If you lose 2 rounds, the game is over.
Catch Me
The object of Catch Me is to trap the still light with the moving light
under your control.
How to Play
To begin, press start. 2 rings will light up on slinky. 1 will be still, the
other one is controlled by your movements. Tilt Slinky® to move the
light under your control towards the still light. Once the lights meet
on one ring, press the FREEZE button to catch Slinky®.
If you miss Twice, the game is over!
Follow Me
In game mode, press select until Electronic Slinky® says “Follow Me.”
Press Start. Electronic Slinky® will move his lights side to side stopping
and changing direction on certain rings. When Electronic Slinky® says
“You do it too.” You must copy his light pattern by moving his ends up
and down to move the lights to match.
If you copy his light pattern correctly you will advance to the next level.
If you miss twice, the game is over.
