3Charge for 3 hours or until the blue charger light stops
blinking.
CONNECTING WITH BLUETOOTH

2From the Home Page, select “Connect Robot”.
3hrs
3Select “Sphero BOLT” from the list of robot types.
4Hold your robot next to the device and select it to
connect.
If you are having connection troubles, try the following:
Place your robot on the charger for 15 seconds to ensure
it’s not in deep sleep, then try again.
Note: After connecting to bluetooth for the first time,
there will be an automatic firmware update.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Here are some tips for caring for your BOLT:
Bolt
BOLT is waterproof; to clean simply wipe your robot with
warm soapy water and dry it with a towel.
BOLT is also shockproof. Pop it, lock it, drop it. Your ball
can handle it. That being said, we don’t recommend
testing this theory from the top of your house.
SANITIZING
Below is Sphero’s step-by-step guide on how to clean and
properly disinfect Sphero BOLT.
1Have the proper cleaning products, e.g. disposable
disinfecting wipes (Lysol or Clorox or similar brands are best)
or spray, paper towels (if using a spray) and disposable
gloves.
2Wipe down BOLT’s outer surface. Wipe and spray away!
There are no charging ports or openings to worry about.
Just be sure not to use harsh solvents or anything abrasive or
sharp to clean them.
3Allow BOLT to dry completely before placing it back on its
charger.
