Interactive Toy Concepts Alien Hunter - Manual (Page 2)

1. Open the battery compartment door
located at the left side of the Infrared
Blaster by using a Philips screwdriver
(not included).
The Alien has a built-in, non-removable, non-replaceable, rechargeable capacitor. The charger is built into the Infrared Blaster and
requires 3 “AAA” alkaline batteries (sold separately). Use only the supplied charger provided in this ALIEN HUNTER package to charge
the Alien. DO NOT USE ANY OTHER SOURCE TO CHARGE THE ALIEN. Install the batteries as shown.
2. Insert the 3 AAA batteries according to
the picture (shown). Ensure that the +
and – polarities match the illustrations
inside the battery compartment.
Do not fly your Alien during windy conditions or harsh weather.
You can operate your ALIEN HUNTER toy indoors or outdoors.
The outdoor space should be roughly 32’ x 32’ (10m x 10m) with
a height allowance of about 19’ (6m). Avoid operating your
ALIEN HUNTER near power-lines, trees, or roof-tops. If flying
your Alien indoors, the area should be roughly 16’ x 16’ (5m x
5m) and the standard household ceiling height.
3. Replace the battery compartment door
and tighten the screw using the
screwdriver. Do not over tighten.
1. Turn the Alien’s ON/OFF switch to the
OFF position for charging.
2. Turn the Infrared Blaster’s ON/OFF
switch to the ON position for charging.
3. Lift the charge-rod located at the top
front of the Infrared Blaster to the up position.
4. Locate the charge hole on the bottom
side of the Alien and insert the Infrared
Blaster’s charge rod completely. The Alien
will sit on the Infrared Blaster securely.
5. Press and hold the charge button
located in the trigger area of the Infrared
Blaster for about 10 seconds.
The red LED charge light located in the On/Off
switch on the top of the Blaster near the
charge rod will light up during charging.
6. Release the charge button after 10 seconds
of charging the Alien. The red LED charge
light will turn off. Remove the Alien from the
charge rod on the Infrared Blaster.
7. The Alien is now ready to fly. The
charge is maintained until the ON/OFF
switch on the Alien is set to the ON
position. This handy feature allows you to
fly your Alien when YOU are ready!
8. Leave the Infrared Blaster’s ON/OFF switch in the ON
position after charging the Alien. Press the charge rod
down on the Infrared Blaster after charging. In the down
position, the notch on the charge rod can be used for target
sighting.
The Alien requires 10 seconds of charging time for a flight-time of 30 to 40 seconds. Charging the Alien is a simple process as
outlined in the following steps.
CHARGING THE ALIEN HUNTER
CHOOSING YOUR FLYING LOCATION
WARNING! DO NOT CHARGE FOR LONGER THAN 10 SECONDS. DAMAGE MAY OCCUR TO THE CAPACITOR INSIDE THE ALIEN HUNTER.
INSTALLING BATTERIES
• When charging, make sure to firmly snap down alien onto charge pod
• If your shot misses the Alien, the Alien will continue to fly in it’s pre-determined path.
• If your shot hits the Alien, it will stop operating for a brief moment and appear to fall. This is meant to
simulate a glancing blow to the Alien. The Alien will resume its flight right away.
• Reload the Infrared Blaster and shoot at the Alien again.
• When you shoot the Alien directly for the second time, the Alien will appear to temporarily fall again.
Normal flight will resume again momentarily.
• Reload the Infrared Blaster and shoot at the Alien again.
• When you shoot the Alien directly for the third time, it will fall from the sky.
Congratulations on your marksmanship!
• If you are unable to hit the Alien three times with the narrow infrared beam of your Infrared Blaster the
Alien will land on the ground naturally.
FLYING AND HUNTING YOUR ALIEN HUNTER
The Alien is ready to fly as soon as it is finished charging. The
objective of the iFly ALIEN HUNTER game using single or
multiple player mode is to shoot down the Alien with the Infrared
Blaster within its 30 to 40 second flight time window. It takes 3
direct hits to bring down the Alien.
1. When you are ready to fly your fully charged Alien you
should first adjust the “direction of flight” setting to the fly pattern
of your choice. This is done by pivoting the directional control
tab to the left, center, or to the right. The directional control tab
is located at the dorsal (upper) rear end of the Alien’s body and
has the two main wings attached to it. By pivoting the directional
control tab to the left, the Alien will fly to the left and by pivoting
the directional control tab to the right, the Alien will fly to the
right. When the directional control tab is positioned in the
center, the Alien will fly straight. The farther the directional
control tab is pivoted towards a certain side, the more the Alien
will bank towards that direction during its flight.
2. Move the Alien’s ON/OFF
switch to the ON position.
The wings will start to flap.
3. Gently toss the Alien into
the air. It will fly for about 30
to 40 seconds.
4. To fire at the Alien, it is necessary to reload the Infrared
Blaster. Reloading the Infrared Blaster is done by sliding the
pump all the way backwards and forwards. A reloading sound is
heard if this process is done successfully. Note: it is necessary
to reload the Infrared Blaster after each shot fired. Once the
Blaster is reloaded, you can fire a narrow infrared beam at the
Alien by pressing the trigger button on the Shooter. A firing
sound is heard.
5. When the Alien has been shot down or has landed on its own,
turn it OFF to recharge it before playing again. Turning the Alien
OFF resets the system. It is not necessary to turn the Infrared
Blaster OFF before recharging the Alien. To recharge the Alien,
follow the steps outlined under “Charging the ALIEN HUNTER”.
6. If you are finished playing, make sure to turn the ON/OFF
switches on the Alien and on the Infrared Blaster to the OFF
position for storing. It is best to remove the batteries from the
Infrared Blaster if it will be stored for a longer period of time.
