screen would look like this:

SOLVE WORD?

Y/N

By asking you this question,

your unit is safeguarding against

giving you a clue you do not

want. If we confirm that we want

the clue by tapping “Y” with our

stylus,  the  following  screen

would be displayed: 

Because 

we 

want 

the

“DOWN” word solved, we could

touch  the  box  to  the  left  of

“ D OW N,”  but  we  could  also

select “BOTH” to confirm our

choice  of  “POLES.”  In  a

moment, you’d be returned to the

puzzle screen, and both words

would be filled in. (You’d see that

you were right about “POLES,”

and  that  the  “DOWN”  answe r

was “POTTERS.”)

By progressing in this way,

with or without getting help from

the solve functions, you can work

through the entire puzzle.

Deleting or erasing

This function is just like eras-

ing an answer you’ve made in a

paper-and-pencil crossword. Place

the cursor on the letter you want

to delete, and touch the 

DELETE

key with the stylus. Three options

will appear on screen: “

DELETE

LETTER

,” “

DELETE WORD

,”

and “

DELETE PUZZLE

.”

When you choose to delete a

wo r d,  your  unit  will  display

ACROSS or DOWN, giving you

a chance to select which you want

to erase.

Using the spell function

You can touch and hold the

CLUE

key to check the spelling of

all words in the puzzle. All of the

incorrect letters will be replaced

by a spell-check icon, alerting

you that you’ve made a mistake,

without giving you the answer.

When you release the 

CLUE
