2. Note on Use
2.1 On handling MarsCat
●
Do not use MarsCat on an unstable place or a place from which MarsCat may fall off to avoid a physical injury or a
malfunction of MarsCat.
●
Do nott place fragile or dangerous objects around MarsCat to avoid property damage or a freak accident.
●
Note that Elephant Robotics will not be responsible for any damage or loss caused by such fall or collision.
2.2 To avoid injury
●
Do not put your hands or fingers in gaps around MarsCat’s movable parts.
●
Do not lift, swing or twist around MarsCat by only grasping its head, tail or any movable parts.
●
Do not pull MarsCat’s tail hard. Noted that it’s designed for safety that MarsCat’s tail come off from the body when
it’s forcefully pulled.
●
If MarsCat's tail comes off from the body, please put the detached tail to the protruded base component, and then
push the tail toward MarsCat's body to let the component go into the receptacle hole of the tail.
●
Do not use MarsCat on a hard or slippery floor, MarsCat may fail to sit up or move forward. It is recommended that
you use MarsCat on a wooden floor or a carpet with short threads.
●
Keep MarsCat's movable parts free of anything that can restrict their movements, such as a sticker or a ribbon.
●
Do not lubricate MarsCat’s movable parts.
●
Do not allow a strong physical impact (e.g. dropping MarsCat) or exert excessive force (e.g. putting a heavy object
on MarsCat) on MarsCat to avoid the risk of malfunction.
●
Do not leave MarsCat in a place subject to extremely high/low temperatures or high humidity. MarsCat’s operating
temperature range is from 5 °C to 35 °C (41 °F to 95 °F). Use of MarsCat in an extremely cold or hot place where
the temperature falls below or exceeds the range may cause a malfunction of MarsCat.

2.3 On cleaning
●
When MarsCat or the charging station is soiled with small particles and dust, gently wipe them off with a dry, soft
cloth.
●
Do not use any volatile agent, such as alcohol or paint thinner, to avoid damaging the surface.
●
If residues of dust or fingerprints are found on MarsCat’s camera or sensor covers, do not touch them with bare
hands. Instead, blow them off with a commercially available blower or wipe them off with a soft cloth.
2.4 Moisture condensation
●
If MarsCat is brought directly from a cold place to a warm place, moisture may condense inside or on the surface
of it and cause a malfunction of MarsCat.
●
If moisture condensation has occurred, leave MarsCat without turning on the power. Turn on the power until
moisture condensation leave or you can wipe MarsCat with a dry cloth.
2.5 Heat generation
●
MarsCat and the supplied power adapter may generate heat while they are in use. Heat generation is caused by
the operation of internal electric circuits or the electric current that flows during battery charge and does not
indicate a malfunction.
●
The amount of heat generated by MarsCat depends on its activity.
●
When MarsCat or the supplied power adapter is extremely hot to the touch when compared to its usual state,
unplug the charger and stop charging.
