10.1 The ACL button
King Arthur may occasionally “freeze up” or refuse to function
properly because of static electric discharge. If this happens, press the
ALL CLEAR
(
ACL
) button.
To do this, turn King Arthur upside-down so the battery compart-
ment is on the upper right. The
ALL CLEAR
button is recessed. You'll
see a "dimple" toward the bottom right. It has a small hole in it.
Gently push a ballpoint pen or a straightened paper clip into the hole
and then release. You'll again hear King Arthur's ready tones.
SPECIAL NOTE: After you push the ACL button, King Arthur will have forgot-
ten any game positions that may have been in his memory.
10.2 Special Care
u
Avoid rough handling such as bumping or dropping.
u
Avoid moisture and extreme temperatures. Store away from windows
and other direct sources of heat and cold, such as heating, air vents or
direct sunlight. For best results, use between the temperatures of 39º
and 100º Fahrenheit (4º and 38º Celsius).
u
Clean using only a slightly damp cloth. Do not use cleaners with
chemical agents.
