WILD CARD – When a Wild card is played, the

player may choose any color to continue the play,

including the one currently being played, if so

desired. A Wild card can be played at any time

– even if the player has another playable card in

the hand. After you play a Wild card, use SCROLL

RIGHT and SCROLL LEFT to toggle between

the different colors, and press ENTER when the

desired color is visible. If a Wild card is turned up

at the beginning of play, the person to the left of

the dealer determines the color, which continues

play.

WILD DRAW FOUR CARD – This is the best card

to have. The person who plays it chooses the

color that continues play. Also, the next player

has to draw 4 cards from the DRAW pile and miss

his/her turn. Unfortunately, the card can only

be played when the player holding it does not

have a card in his/her hand to match the color on

the DISCARD pile. If the player holds matching

numbers or Action Cards, however, the Wild Draw

Four card may be played. After you play a Wild

Draw Four card, use SCROLL RIGHT and SCROLL

LEFT to toggle between the different colors, and

press ENTER when the desired color is visible. If

this card is turned up at the beginning of play, it is

returned to the deck and another card replaces it.

LET’S BEGIN!

When you first purchase your game, it will be in

demo mode. To exit demo mode, press the RESET

button located on the back of the housing.

Press either UNO® or ENTER/PLAY to turn ON the

game.

Use the SCROLL LEFT/SCROLL RIGHT buttons to

choose a 2, 3, or 4 player game, and press ENTER

to confirm your selection.

Use the SCROLL LEFT/SCROLL RIGHT buttons

to select a level of difficulty, and press ENTER to

confirm your selection.

Once the game begins, you will know when it is

your turn when your player indicator (the circle

with the number 1) is quickly displaying all of the

different game colors.

When it is your turn, you can use the SCROLL

LEFT/SCROLL RIGHT buttons to scroll through

your cards. When you have highlighted (placed in

the center position) the card that you want to play

(See HOW TO PLAY and FUNCTIONS OF ACTION

CARDS), press ENTER/PLAY to move that card to

the DISCARD pile.

If you do not have a playable card, press DRAW/

HIGH SCORE to draw a card from the DRAW pile.

If the card is playable, press ENTER/PLAY to move

the card to the DISCARD pile. If the card is not

playable, it is your opponent’s turn.

In addition to being visually represented, the exact

number of cards in each player’s hand will be

displayed in his/her player indicator (circle with the

number 1, 2, 3, or 4).

When it is your turn, your current score will be

displayed in black in the center right-hand side of

the screen. When it is an opponent’s turn, this area

will display his/her score in red. At the end of each

round of play, the scores will be updated. Rounds

of play will continue until either you or an opponent

reaches 500 points and becomes the winner.

Keep playing and sharpening your skills, and in no

time you’ll be saying “UNO”!

SLEEP MODE

In order to conserve battery power, your game will

go to sleep if there is no activity (buttons pressed)

for one minute. Don’t worry! If you press either

UNO® or ENTER/PLAY, the unit will wake up, and

your game will be exactly where you left it!
