ENGLISH

Press ENTER once more to confirm that you do want to clear the

board. Then add pieces as described previously. If you decide not

to clear the board, press CLEAR to cancel. This feature can be

handy when you want to set up a position with only a few pieces,

where it would be much easier to start out with an empty board!

• Once you have changed the board position as described

above, make sure the color indicator in the display is showing the

correct color of the side to move. Change the color, if necessary, by

pressing BLACK/> or WHITE/<.

• To exit Position Mode, press CLEAR. You will return to normal

game play, with your new board position!

Note that any legal position can be set up using the above proce-

dures. The computer will not permit you to set up an illegal position,

such as one where there are more than the prescribed number of

pieces for a normal game, or one where a King is in check and is not to

move. In such cases, the computer will simply beep when you press

CLEAR, and you will not be allowed to exit Position Mode. Check the

position using the PIECE SYMBOL KEYS, if necessary, and correct the

position (by adding a piece, removing a piece, or moving an incorrectly

placed piece). Then press CLEAR to exit Position Mode.

7. TECHNICAL DETAILS

7.1 The ACL Function

Computers sometimes “lock up” due to static discharge or various

other electrical disturbances. If this should happen, take out the batter-

ies and use a pin or another sharp object to press into the hole marked

ACL in the base of the unit for at least one second. This resets the

computer.

7.2 Care and Maintenance

Your chess computer is a precision electronic device, and should not

be subjected to rough handling or exposed to extreme temperatures or

moisture. Be sure to remove the batteries before cleaning the unit. Do

not use chemical agents or liquids to clean the unit, as they may

damage the plastic.

Weak batteries should be replaced promptly, since they can leak and

damage the computer. Please also note the following regarding the use

of batteries.

Warning: Use only alkaline or zinc carbon batteries. Do

not mix different types of batteries or new and used batteries. Do

not recharge non-rechargeable batteries. Use only the recom-

mended batteries or equivalent. Be sure to observe the correct

polarity when inserting batteries. Worn out batteries should be

removed from the unit promptly. Do not short circuit the supply

terminals.
