Getting to know your pet
Now that you’ve adopted your own WowWee Alive™ Baby Animal, it’s time to get
to know him better.
Alive™’s basic features
Your pet has a moving mouth and eyes that blink and respond. He also makes an
array of baby animal sounds.
He is equipped with a touch sensor on his head & nose. If you touch his nose, he will
react with licking and kissing sounds. With KissTech™ technology, the longer you
touch his nose, the longer the kiss lasts! His tilt sensor enables different reactions:
Awake when upright and sleepy when cradled in your arms.
Getting to know your pet
Powering ON/OFF the first time
Your pet’s main power switch is located on his belly which you can access
through the flap beneath in his fur. The switch has three settings: Try Me,
OFF, and Normal.
NOTE: You will only need to access the main power switch when you first
use him and/or when you change his batteries. After that, you can turn him
on or off using his quick power switch (see the section Powering ON/OFF in
normal play).

Powering ON/OFF in normal play
Once you set the power switch to Normal setting, your toy should automatically
be in normal play mode when turned on. Your Alive™ pet also has a quick power
button located in his right ear. To turn him on after he
powers down and enters Sleep Mode:
• Ensure the main power switch is set to Normal.
Then locate the quick power button on his ear and
press it once.
Volume control
You can adjust the volume to high or low on your pet’s right ear using the quick
power switch to toggle the levels. To do so:
• Hold quick power button down for about 2 seconds.
Sleep Mode
To conserve batteries, the your pet will go into Sleep Mode after about 5 minutes if
you leave him unattended. He will close his eyes and make sleepy sounds for about
5 minutes in Sleep Mode if continued to be left unattended, after which he will
power down to save batteries.
When you want to wake him from Sleep Mode, press the button on his right ear.
Your pet reacts like a real baby animal – he will make baby animal sounds, blink his
eyes and move his mouth.

When you first turn him on, he will open his eyes , open and close his
mouth , and then make a wake up sound. After that, he is ready to play
with you!

ear for more reactions!
Turn him over on his back and he’ll react. Turn him upright again to see what he does.
Spend some time to get to know your pet by cuddling up with him and giving
him affection!

what’s wrong?
A. You probably need to change the batteries. Refer to the Battery details section
for information on battery requirements and installation.
Q. My pet speaks more quietly than normal… how do I fix that?
A. Either you have the toy’s volume levels set at low (see the section Volume

Note that when you turn him on his back, his volume level automatically lowers
if it is set to high volume level. When you put him upright again, his volume level
should return to high volume if he was already at high volume.

A. Your pet is probably in Sleep Mode. To wake him from Sleep Mode, press his
