Get off the couch and into the ring!

Come on, Kid!  You're soft, I tell ya!  But I'm just the trainer to build
you up and get you a title match with The Champ!  First, I'm going
to put you through some of my very special training exercises!
They'll sure keep you on your toes!  After you're done with them, I'll
see if I can get you a sparring match.  Then, only if you're ready, I'll
get you into the ring with The Champ himself!  What you do from
there is up to you.  But with my training, I'm sure you're gonna' go
all the way!

SETTING UP

BATTERY INSTALLATION

On the bottom of the main unit, open the battery compartment and
insert four (4) AA size batteries in the main console and two (2)
AAA size batteries in each glove as indicated inside the
compartment (alkaline batteries recommended).  Replace the
battery compartment door. 

NOTE:  Batteries in the Console should give you about 10 hours of
game play (if alkaline batteries are used).  The game will not
operate normally when the batteries begin to run low.  The screen
may be blurred and resetting the game may not work.  Be sure to
install fresh batteries.  

ADULT SUPERVISION IS RECOMMENDED WHEN INSTALLING
BATTERIES.

TV CONNECTION

NOTE:  To connect Play TV Boxing directly to a TV, the TV must be
equipped with audio and video input jacks.  They are commonly
found on the front of the TV near the contrast, color, and picture
adjustment controls or on the rear of the TV near the antenna and
cable/satellite jacks.

If your TV has audio and video input jacks, insert the yellow video
plug from the Console into the video-in (Yellow) jack on your TV
and the white audio plug into the left audio-in (White) jack. Then set
the TV to the appropriate video input mode (see your TV's
operating manual for details).

Please Note:  If your TV is stereo, you can use a 1 into 2 audio
cable (available at your local electronics store) to allow you to split
the audio signal into red and white audio-in jacks. 

If your TV does not have audio and video input jacks, you may
connect Play TV Boxing through a VCR connected to your TV.

CONNECTING TO A VCR

To connect Play TV Boxing to your VCR, insert the yellow video
plug from the Console into the video-in (Yellow) jack on your VCR
and the white audio plug into the left audio-in (White) jack.  Then
set the VCR to the appropriate video input mode (see your VCR's
operating manual for details).

Please Note:  If your VCR is stereo, you can use a 1 into 2 audio
cable (available at your local electronics store) to allow you to split
the audio signal into red and white audio-in jacks. 

ADULT SUPERVISION IS RECOMMENDED WHEN
CONNECTING CABLES TO A TV AND VCR.

HOW IT ALL WORKS

The Boxing Gloves send out infrared signals.  The Console senses
these signals and the way you throw a punch.  To get the best
results from your Play TV Boxing, refer to the back of the package
for game 
set up. 

HELPFUL HINTS

Be sure the Console is placed flat on the floor with the receiver
pointing to the player without any obstructions in between. 

The use of TV and Video remote controls may interfere with game
play.

CAUTION

• When throwing a punch, never let go of the Boxing

Gloves.  Doing so may damage the game, damage
whatever they hit, or injure whomever they hit.

• Be sure the area around you is clear when throwing a

punch. 

• Always keep a safe distance between you and the

Console and the television set.

• Do not hit people, or any objects with the Boxing

Gloves.

• Do not use the Boxing Gloves for anything other than

game play.

• Do not play on a slick surface.

TRAINING EXERCISES

Each training exercise will use the following Punch Icons:

HEAVY BAG

This develops your memory as well
as your use of all movements. I’ll
show you a series of moves on the
Heavy Bag by highlighting the Punch
Icons. You have to repeat the exact
series without doing the wrong move.
We’ll keep this exercise going until
you do make a wrong move. Your
score will be determined by how
many correct moves you made all
together. Gain one point for each successful sequence.

PADS

This one works on your moves plus your speed and reaction time.

I'm going to hold up a Punch Pad, and you have to hit it using
whatever move the Punch Icon tells you to.  You have to make your
move quick before I lower my hand, so you better think fast.  As
time goes by, I'm going to hold up the pads faster and faster, but
don't hit too hard.  My hands ain't what they used to be.  Your score
will be determined by how many correct moves you make before
time runs out. One point for each successful punch.

COMBO

This Training Exercise works on your speed and use of different
punches and blocks.

You get one round to knock down all the targets as quickly as
possible, in numeric order.  Remember time is of the essence here,
and you must knock down the targets using the different punches
and blocks from that Punch Icon layout I showed you.  If you miss
one, all of the targets will reset, and you'll have to start again. Your
score is based on the amount of sequences you complete in the
time limit. Seven points for each successful sequence.

MEDICINE BALL

This classic exercise works your timing as well as your moves.
