T he legendary King Arthur brandished
a magic sword, Excalibur, from which
we take our company name. With this
unique weapon in his hands, he could
not be vanquished.
Although Excalibur Electronics can’t
claim the magical secrets of Merlin,
King Arthur’s court wizard, sometimes
our patented technology may make it
seem as if we could. The New York
Times Electronic Crossword is another
unmatched innovation of Excalibur
Electronics.
We make you think.
Installing Batteries
Your New York Times Elec-
tronic Crossword requires 2 AAA
batteries. To install the batteries,
carefully turn the New York
Times Electronic Crossword over
so that the unit is face-down on a
soft surface. Locate the battery
compartment on the back of the
unit. Lift off the battery compart-
ment lid and install the batteries,
making sure to match polarity (+
and -). Then place the tab of the
battery compartment lid in its slot
and close the compartment door.
The New York Times Electronic
Crossword may lock up due to static dis-
charge or other electrical disturbances. If
this should happen, use a slim, pointed
object to press the reset button on the
back of the unit.
