The AIBO
®
 Entertainment Robot will notify you of new e-mail
If a new e-mail arrives at the e-mail address that the AIBO 
robot checks, its wireless light will flash blue and notify you 
of this arrival. (Your PC does not need to be activated for this 
notification feature to work.) This notification is only for 
regular e-mail and not for AIBO MAIL arrivals.
The AIBO robot will 
periodically check for 
e-mail at the intervals 
you selected in the “E-
mail check interval” in 
the “Mail Setup” 
screen (page 25) 
section for e-mail 
setup. When you tell 
the AIBO robot 
“Check e-mail”, the 
AIBO robot will announce the results and let you know by 
saying:
“You have new mail.” (1-9 messages
*
)
“Wow! You’ve got lots of mail.” (More than 9 messages
*
)
“You don’t have any new mail.”
* AIBO MAIL is not included in this count.
Note
You can confirm the AIBO robot’s e-mail server connection by 
observing its wireless light:
When the e-mail check is successfully completed, the wireless 
light will turn blue.
When e-mail check is successfully completed and there is new 
e-mail, the wireless light will flash blue.
When attempts to connect to the e-mail server fail, the wireless 
light will turn OFF.
Having the AIBO robot forward pictures taken 
in House Sitting mode
In House Sitting mode, the AIBO robot takes a picture and 
notifies you by e-mail when it detects movements, faces, and 
sounds. The AIBO robot attaches the pictures it takes to the 
e-mail notification, but recorded sounds cannot be attached 
and sent.
To have the AIBO robot attach and forward by e-mail the 
pictures it takes in House Sitting mode, turn the e-mail 
forwarding function “ON” in the Settings for House Sitting 
mode on the AIBO robot, and specify a destination e-mail 
address under “Sending pictures by Voice Command and in 
House Sitting Mode” on the “Mail Setup” screen (page 25).
For details on the AIBO robot’s House Sitting mode, refer to 
the “User’s Guide (Basic)” for the AIBO robot ERS-7.
Caution
If an object in front of the AIBO robot is continuously moving or 
making sounds, the AIBO robot will repeatedly send you pictures 
of it, resulting in an extremely large volume of e-mail arriving in 
your inbox. Because phone charges may become a burden in this 
situation, please be careful when specifying a mobile phone e-mail 
address as the destination address.
