Sometimes, due to electrostatic charges, other types of electrical interference or after inserting
batteries, computers do not function correctly. Should this occur, push a thin object into the RESET
opening in the base of the computer and press it into the opening for about 1 second. The RESET
opening can be found on the underside of the device, beneath the ON/OFF button. This resets the
computer, so that its memory is cleared and the computer returns to normal operation.
NOTE:
This product is not protected against the effects of electrostatic charges, strong
electromagnetic radiation or other electrical interference, as malfunctioning as a result of these
conditions is not critical. In the event of a malfunction, you can use th
e RESET button on the device’s
underside to set the device back to normal operation and begin a new game.
2. Before you begin
2.1 Inserting batteries
1.
Place the device upside down onto a flat surface. You will
now see the battery compartment in the underside of the
device.
2.
Open the battery compartment. To do so, press the plastic
tab with your thumb and then lift open the battery
compartment cover.
3.
Insert 3 R6/LR6 batteries (AA) into the base of the battery
compartment, paying attention to the labelling.
4.
Ensure that you observe the correct polarity. The batteries’
positive terminals ‘+’ must agree with the labelling in the battery compartment.
5.
Close the battery compartment once more.
6.
Press once with a thin object (e.g. the end of a paperclip) into the RESET opening on the
underside of the device. This then emits a sound to indicate that it is ready for operation.
The chess computer beeps as soon as the batteries have been correctly inserted. The LCD display
then shows the starting position for a game of chess. The word
‘Deutsch’
(blinking) should now be
visible in the bottom line. After pressing the
ENT
button, the game can begin. The display says
‘Play’
.
The computer is ready.
Note:
•
If the display does not light up, reset the chess computer once again by pressing the RESET
button on its underside.
Also check that the batteries are functional and that they have been
inserted correctly.
•
When the batteries are running low, the
#
symbol blinks for a few seconds in the bottom line
of the LCD display.
The batteries should then be replaced as soon as possible.
