you will hear "Re" (Tracing mode).
If you have two Mousies™ you may wish
to race them against each other. For this
you can make your own track. To do this
you will need two 1.5 cm-wide black
lines next to each other.
Performance is enhanced if the color
of the surface is white and hard.
Please do not draw on your or other people’s furniture.

line. It will start to follow the track
and at the same time sing for you.

FEEDING
Your mousie needs regular feeding for it to stay healthy
and fit. Without enough food Fred and Didi cannot play
games and perform any special tricks. If they are not fed
for a long time they can become very sick. You can feed
your mousie by downloading food from
www.fredanddidi.com as mentioned on the previous page.
If you don't have access to the Internet, you can feed your
Fred & Didi manually. To do this, press the belly button
9 times. Once you hear the high "Re" scale (Manual
feeding and caring mode), clap several times in succession.
Mousies™ need at least 15 claps for a satisfying feed.
Your mousie will beep when full.

MEDICINE
If not fed frequently enough or well enough Fred and Didi
can become sick and need care and attention. They also
need medicine. To give your mousie medicine you can
download it from www.fredanddidi.com.
If you don't have access to a computer you can do this
manually. Press the belly button 9 times to reach the
manual care mode. Rub the Mousies™ Direction Sensor
(Sunglasses) from left to right repeatedly. The mousie will
tell you when it has had enough medicine.
If you keep rubbing the mousie but it does not respond with
a success noise it means it does not need medicine. It may
need food or it may be love sick, in which case it needs to
date another mousie. For further information check the
'Sickness and cure' section at the back of this booklet.
GAMES
Certain games can normally only be played when Fred
and Didi reach certain ages. However, if you have access
to the Internet you can download any of the games when
your mousie is at any age. Simply follow the method listed
in the download section and select the game you want
the mousie to play.
SONGS
Your mousie is pre-programmed with three songs. You
can change the song by downloading a new one from
www.fredanddidi.com by using the downloading instructions
on page 6 and selecting SONG.

Playing with your Mousies™
Age 1
Press the belly button once. The basic function will be
started with tone "Do." (As in "do, re, me, fa, so, la, te, do.")
Movement
Place your mousie on the floor and it will move around
like it is looking for something.
Its nose will flash which means it's happy.
Place your hand or another object in front of your mousie
and it will avoid it.
If you hold mousie still when it is trying to move, it will
squeak to get free.
Turning Directions
When mousie stops and makes a beeping sound, you
can give it commands by clapping.
Clap once: mousie turns to the left
Clap twice: mousie turns to the right
(For best results always clap within 3 feet of your mousie)
Follow-Me & Dribbling
If you clap three times and hear a long signal sound, place
your hand, finger, or any other moving object in front of its
nose and watch it follow it around. If you place the ball in
front of your mousie in this mode it will dribble the ball
around. If mousie cannot sense anything to follow or play
with after five seconds, it will revert back to the basic mode
again.
Singing & Dancing
After finishing motions like these it's important to praise your
mousie. If you clap more than 4 times your mousie will sing
songs and dance.
Your mousie can sing 4 songs. Three songs are pre-
programmed and you can download one more song from
the Internet.
Sleeping Mode
If you leave your mousie alone for a while, it will fall asleep,
blinking its nose.
When in sleep mode you can awaken your mousie by simply
clapping your hands. However, if it falls into a deep sleep,
you have to press its belly button to wake it up.
