FILL IN THE GRID SO THAT EVERY ROW, EVERY COLUMN AND
EVERY 3 X 3 BOX CONTAINS THE NUMBERS 1 THROUGH 9.
1. To begin slide the switch from the

position and choose either

or
ADVANCED
mode.
2. Using the stylus, select
Level 1, 2, 3 or 4
by touching the numbers

3 or 4
on the bottom left side of the screen. 1 is easiest and 4 is the
most difficult.

The amount of fixed numbers appearing on the grid is determined by

an entry, touch the

touching a new number and then touching the box.
6. Once each of the numbers 1 through 9 has been placed correctly the number will disappear from
the bottom of the screen. If the numbers have all been placed correctly, a sound effect will
