To control R2-D2’s advanced operations you’ll need to install his special free app.
For full details on how get the most from your R2-D2, please consult the separate USER GUIDE.
You can control several
functions directly from the
buttons on R2-D2’s front panel.
Note that in Patrol mode, R2-D2 will sense walls and vertical
obstacles at a distance of around 40cm, and his infrared staircase
sensor will also react if he starts running over a step. This is less
effective on dark floors, and he may find it hard to reverse quickly
on slippery surfaces. Before you activate Patrol mode make sure
R2-D2 will have enough time for his sensors react to his current
location.
