Note: This idea was taken from the fanfiction Wolfram von Bielefeld: User's Manual, by Sayoko Bizen, who in turn got the idea from Hikari Hrai-rah (who used it for the Rurouni Kenshin fandom), who in turn got it from Theresa Green (Lord of the Rings fandom). I'm crediting all of these authors just to be on the safe side – I REPEAT: I DID NOT COME UP WITH THIS CONCEPT.

Upon arrival, open immediately. If product is kept contained for period longer than one hour, one of three settings will take effect:
YANDERE MODE – Kagamine Len unit will mutilate first thing seen after box is opened, including but not limited to, furniture and other inanimate objects, owner, or family pets.
SHOTA MODE – Kagamine Len unit will insistently cry until setting changes (anywhere between two to six hours) or comforted by a MEIKO, KAITO, or Luka unit. Warning: Do not expose Kagamine Len unit to a Kagamine Rin unit should this setting take action; crying will continue for longer period of time due to the other Kagamine unit's mocking.
"DESTRUCTIVE TEENAGER" MODE – Kagamine Len unit will swear profusely, destroy box surrounding self, and/or seek retribution for his imprisonment.

Programming
The Kagamine Len unit is one of our proudest achievements in our catalog, and includes a wide selection of functions.
They include:
Singer: As with all of our Vocaloid units, the Kagamine Len unit's primary use is for singing. Simply plug the unit into any computer (the unit will be more than willing to do this himself, as well, and may go so far as to start a computer on his own when no one else is around), click and drag any wanted MP3 files onto the window that appears, and eject. Unit can provide full instructions.
Baby-sitter/Big Brother: If introduced to children early on, the Kagamine Len unit makes an excellent 'big brother'; however, this must be done within twenty-four hours of unit's arrival. Failure to comply may cause irreversible sibling rivalry (particularly towards blonde girls) and/or the unit's blatant refusal to allow children anywhere near primary owner.
Actor: The Kagamine Len unit is extremely versatile, and is able to easily adapt to any and all situations given to him in story format. Hook unit up to computer, and add any NotePad©, Microsoft Word©, etc. file in script format into his hard drive; explain which part he will be playing, and Kagamine unit will take it from there! Note: Unit also doubles as a model!
Songwriter: The Kagamine Len unit is a bundle of creativity, and loves to sing; therefore, he may begin filling any extra time with singing and songwriting. He will not, however, enjoy singing in front of large crowds unless he is performing with a Kagamine Rin or KAITO unit.
Functions Not Supported: Kagamine Len unit will deliberately refuse any and all advances made by older males, unless introduced to a KAITO or Gakupo unit is introduced early-on. Once this happens, however, our Company will not be held responsible for any mental scars, noise, or inappropriate scenes witnessed by owner, caused by interaction of units.

Modes
"TEENAGER" MODE (default)
"DESTRUCTIVE TEENAGER" MODE – Unit may cause damage to surroundings and/or nearby persons; remember, the Vocaloid units are known for their life-like qualities! Owning one of these units is like having a real teenaged child!
SHOTA MODE – model will temporarily shrink in size and become younger. Crying and skittish nature are common – this is not a malfunction.
YANDERE MODE – Unit becomes exceedingly violent and will kill/maim/destroy anything in the immediate vicinity. Our only advice, should this mode be activated, is to get the hell out of his way.
Given time and opportunities for interaction with other Vocaloid units may lead to the operation of these modes:
SIBLING RIVALRY MODE – Only comes into play when introduced to a Kagamine Rin unit.
THOUGHTFUL/DREAMY MODE – Often initiated by Kagamine Rin, Hatsune Miku, or KAITO units. Kagamine Len unit will become increasingly quiet and thoughtful, and may or may not become unreachable for a short period of time.
SENSITIVE MODE – Unit becomes insistently touchy and annoyed, and often overreacts about small instances; initiated upon reversal of SHOTA MODE.
CREATIVE MODE – Unit feverishly writes song lyrics or draws; be sure to keep a notebook or two set aside for him!
JEALOUSY MODE – Most often initiated by large amounts of attention being given to a nearby Kagamine Rin unit; unit will become stubborn and uncooperative, and may or may not attack said Rin unit.
DESTRUCTION MODE – Unit will show signs of extreme aggravation and annoyance. Related to JEALOUSY MODE, DESTRUCTION MODE will cause the Kagamine Len unit to attempt to destroy the cause of his annoyance (usually initiated by a Teto unit).
UKE MODE – Only initiated by KAITO or Gakupo units when introduced early on; Len unit will consistently follow in other unit's footsteps, and act like the proverbial 'lovesick puppy'.
BOYFRIEND MODE – Only initiated by Hatsune Miku, Akita Neru, Kagamine Rin, or, in rare cases, MEIKO units. Unit becomes protective of other unit; again, unit may show 'lovesick puppy'-like qualities.
--------------------
Interaction with Other Units
The Kagamine Len unit may be anti-social at times, but will quickly take to any family or other Vocaloid units he is introduced to within the first day of operation. After three days, however, the Len unit may cut off any new relationships, keeping only those he knows well. See our attached catalog for complete listing of Vocaloid models!
We recommend the following models for interaction:
Kagamine Rin – As mentioned above, the Kagamine Rin model may at first initiate SIBLING RIVALRY MODE. However, if introduced early on or ordered together, they make inseparable companions, and become extremely attached. This may, however, also trigger their joint INCEST MODE.
Note: The probability for INCEST MODE triples should either Kagamine unit be exposed to 'Angel Sanctuary'; this is a particularly bad problem in the Rin unit.
KAITO – If introduced early on, the KAITO unit will become an older-brother figure to the Len unit. This may or may not, depending on the Len unit's other interactions with other Vocaloid models, evolve into a romantic relationship. Should this be the desired end, introduce both a Kasane Teto unitand a Kagamine Rin unit. They will be more than willing to play matchmaker; however, should only a Rin unit be introduced, the more likely outcome will be a rivalry over the KAITO unit's affections, which will invariably be won by the more dominate Rin unit.
Note: We will not be held responsible should the Kagamine Len unit destroy himself or the Kagamine Rin unit should this situation happen.
MEIKO – The MEIKO unit will become an older-sister figure to the Len unit, and, in rare instances, trigger the Kagamine Len unit's BOYFRIEND MODE.
Note: It is not advised that the Kagamine Len unit consumes any of the MEIKO unit's cooking; this will customarily cause a meltdown, and may trigger the Kagamine unit's YANDERE MODE.
Kamui Gakupo – The Gakupo unit will, initially, drive the Kagamine Len unit (as well as any people in the vicinity) up the wall. If introduced early on, however, the Gakupo and Kagamine Len units may form a romantic relationship; if this is the desired end, introduce both a Kasane Teto unit and a Kagamine Rin unit to serve as matchmakers, and do not introduce a Megurine Luka unit, as she will likely go into a rage fueled by her belief that the Gakupo unit has become a pedophile.
Megurine Luka – The Megurine Luka unit will, invariably, adore the Kagamine Len unit, and treat him as a beloved younger brother or, in some cases (particularly if she has been exposed to a Kamui Gakupo unit) as a son. The Kagamine Len may develop a crush on the Luka unit; do not worry, as this is a temporary phase, and the Len unit will soon return to his senses.
Kasane Teto – 100% Guarantee that the Kasane Teto unit will drive the Kagamine Len unit into DESTRUCTION MODE upon first encounter; however, the Teto unit will (most likely) survive the encounter, and eventually grow on the Len unit.
Akita Neru – The Akita Neru unit has a 98% chance of attaching itself romantically to the Kagamine Len unit; the Len unit, however, will find the Akita Neru unit's constant use of any cell phones in the vicinity for texting bothersome, and it will take some time before the Kagamine Len unit will stay in a room alone with the Neru unit.

Troubleshooting Your Kagamine Len Unit
Problem: My Kagamine Len unit somehow managed to flatten all of my living room furniture and leveled one wall of my house.
Solution: You live within a five-mile radius of a construction site that is using a road-roller. Complain to construction supervisor for allowing a fourteen-year-old to drive off with heavy machinery, or keep Kagamine unit in padlocked dog kennel when unsupervised.
Problem: My Kagamine Len unit often complains of lower back pain.
Solution 1: If your Kagamine Len unit has been exposed to a KAITO or Gakupo unit, he will get used to it.
Solution 2: Your Kagamine Len unit may need adjustments; a chiropractor or mechanic are the same medicine in this case.
Problem: My Kagamine Len unit is constantly in SHOTA MODE. Should I be worried?
Solution: Your Kagamine Len unit is probably going through a tough time; give him a hug and a teddy bear and he should return to normal within a few hours.
Problem: My Kagamine Len unit is constantly writing songs about murder.
Solution: Your Len unit is stuck somewhere between CREATIVE MODE and YANDERE MODE. Try rebooting unit (switch is located behind left ear).
Problem: My Kagamine Len unit is constantly writing songs about princesses, princes, servants, death, and rebirth.
Solution: Your Kagamine Len unit is still performing under the out-of-date Servant of Evil program; go to our website for free download of current programming and further instructions.
Problem: I believe that my Kagamine Len unit is malfunctioning. He is constantly bossing around my other Vocaloid units, continually stealing all the oranges in my possession, and has just stolen my credit card and gone on a $5407 shopping spree for non-returnable items.
Solution: You were accidentally sent a Kagamine Rin unit; we apologize for the inconvenience. Please enjoy her!
