the lights corresponding to the pawn captured en passant. Press this square

and remove the pawn from the chessboard.

CASTLING
In order to castle you need first of all to move the King as usual. Once you have

pressed the squares you want to move the King from and to, the computer will

remind you to move the Castle.

To castle short (castling with the King’s Castle) on the White side:

1. Press square E1 and pick up the King.

2. Place the King on G1 and press the square.

3. The computer will remind you to move the Castle by illuminating the

lights corresponding to H1. Press the H1 Square and pick up the Castle.

4. The computer will illuminate the coordinates of F1. Place the Castle on F1

and press this square.

To castle long (castling with the Queen’s Castle) on the White side:

1. Press square E1 and pick up the King.

2. Place the King on C1 and press the square.

3. The computer will remind you to move the Castle by illuminating the

corresponding square. Press A1 and pick up the Castle.

4. The computer will illuminate the coordinates of D1. Place the Castle on

D1 and press the square.

PROMOTING PAWNS
The computer automatically promotes pawns.

1. Press the square of the pawn you want to promote and pick up the piece.

2. Look for a Queen of the right colour among the captured chessmen (if

there is no Queen of the right colour available, you can use a Castle and

place it on the board upside down). Press the square you want the Queen

on and place the piece on this square.

The computer assumes that you will always choose a Queen when you promote

your pawns. If you want to promote your pawn to a Castle, a Bishop or a Knight,

you can do so by changing their positions (see paragraph XIX). The computer itself

will always promote its pawn to a Queen.
