CHECK and DRAW/MATE lights. If the computer is in checkmate, the lights are
constantly illuminated, if you are in checkmate, the lights flash on and off.
If stalemate occurs, the DRAW/MATE light will illuminate which indicates a
draw.
If the same position is repeated 3 times, or if 50 moves are made without taking
any pieces or promoting any pawns, the DRAW/MATE light will illuminate but
you can continue playing if you so wish.
VIII. OFF / SAVE
When you finish a game, you can press NEW GAME to start another one or turn
the computer off by pressing OFF / SAVE. In this case the computer is not really
switched off. It will save the positions of the chessmen in the current game while
using a minimum of power. In other words, you can interrupt the game in the
middle, turn off the computer and then switch it back on again later to continue
the game. You can also press NEW GAME when you switch the computer back
on again if you want to start a new game.
IX. SOUND
If you prefer to play in silence, press SOUND/COLOUR. The computer’s sound
effects will be silenced. To reactivate the sound, press SOUND/COLOUR again.
The sound will be reactivated the next time you press NEW GAME.
