 About Screen Illustrations

Some screen illustrations in this
User’s Guide may differ from what
you see on the actual screen. This
does not mean that your BOOK-
MAN is malfunctioning.

On the top row of your BOOKMAN the
red, green, yellow, and blue colour keys
change functions according to the book
card you select.

If you are using the built-in book, the
colour keys function as labeled on the
BOOKMAN keyboard. If you select a
book card, the colour keys function as
labeled on that book card.

Remember, when you select a book
card, the colour keys function as labeled
on that book card, not the keyboard.
