5. Maintenance
- After each use, rinse the Robo Fish with clean, fresh water.
- Thoroughly dry the fish, especially the battery compartment and any exposed sensors, to prevent corrosion and ensure longevity.
- If the toy will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage and damage.
- Store the Robo Fish in a dry place away from direct sunlight.
6. Troubleshooting
- Fish not swimming: Ensure the fish is fully immersed in water. Check that the battery compartment is securely closed and that the batteries are correctly inserted and not depleted.
- Fish not changing color: For models with color-changing features, ensure the fish is fully submerged in water. The color change is a reaction to water contact.
- Short battery life: Replace with new batteries. Ensure the battery compartment is dry before closing.
