To get the most fun out of 

bigtrak 

you should remember:

1. All steps except                                  and         need two or more
separate instructions. 
Look at the following chart to see which other instruction is needed
each time.

2. All surfaces that you can run 

bigtrak 

on will be different. The numbers

you use for turns and distance will vary from surface to surface, so use
your         to find the correct number to programme. 

3. 

bigtrak 

is designed to operate on a flat surface. When 

bigtrak 

runs

into steep slopes or into any obstacles, such as walls or furniture it will
stall the unit. The protection device will be activated (power cut off) to
prevent the unit overheating. The unit will output the sleep mode tones
alert once and enter sleep mode. The previous program is cleared after
the protection device is activated.

4. Remember you can programme 

bigtrak 

with up to 16 different steps.

These can include turns of more than 360°, up to 99 lengths of travel
forwards or backwards, and up to 99 blasts of the photon beams per
step. Remember                                  and         do not count as steps.

5. We suggest that you chart out the various rooms in your house and
mark in furniture that you want to avoid. Then you can have fun
programming 

bigtrak 

to move from room to room around the house.

Keep notes of successful programmes so that you can use them again.
