Aggressive Levels (G1 through
G8)
If you set the computer to the aggres¬
sive levels, it will avoid exchanging
pieces so it can present more potential
attacks to an opponent (to keep the
game complicated). It will also check
and attack an opponent's pieces in an
aggressive manner. This results in
stronger play.
To select any of these levels, press
LEVEL, press square G 1 - G8, then press
LEVEL again.

ENTERING MOVES
Playing chess against the computer is
like playing with a human opponent-you
make your move, and the computer re¬
sponds with its move. The only differ¬
ence is that you must physically move
both your and the computer’s pieces. To
make a move, press down gently on the
centerofthe FROM, then theTOsquares.
The FROM square is the current location
of the piece you plan to move; the TO
square is where you are moving the
piece to.
Note: On the LCD display, ^ - indi¬
cates it is white’s turn to move, while
'3i- - indicates that it is black’s turn to
move.

Note: Once you press a piece (either
yours or the computer’s) down on a
FROM square, you must complete the
move by pressing a TO square before
you can press the COLOR, DISPLAY
MOVE, SETUP, or EVALUATION keys. If
you try to use any of these keys before
you complete the move, the computer
sounds an error beep.
Follow these steps to enter moves.
1. When it is your turn to move,press
down the piece you want to move on
the FROM square. The display
shows the piece you pressed and
the FROM square, and the rank/file
board lights show the FROM square.
2. Press the piece gently down on the
TO square where you want to move
the piece, £ displays with a number.
The number changes while the com¬
puter plans its move.
Notes:
• The computer might respond
instantly, so you might not see
jt and a number.
• During the computer’s turn, the
number displayed next to jj^ might
change. This is because the com¬
puter has changed its mind about
its line of play and is searching
down another line.
