Monitor Adjustment Procedure

The vertical/horizontal controls and bright- ness/contrast controls are located on the control board (see Figure 2).

Pressing the button labeled Menu on the control board will show an on-screen dis- play of the monitor settings. Use the Left and Right buttons to move through the menu. Touch Menu to select the option you want to change. Use the Left and Right buttons to change the option. Then press Menu again to deselect the option. Auto will automati- cally adjust the size and brightness. Touch the Exit button to exit. Adjust the monitor controls until the screens look as suggested in the following steps:

1.Set the game to the Checkerz game screen.

2.Adjust the vertical and horizontal size and vertical and horizontal position to make sure that the game screen fills the monitor screen and that the game screen is centered.

3.Adjust the brightness and contrast con- trols until the top sets of checkers are a rich red and the bottom set are a dark gray. The feet on the “Checkerz” character should be white. (Adjusting the brightness and contrast can also correct a lack of sharpness.)

Cleaning the Cabinet

•The cabinet should be cleaned with a dry cloth and mild detergent. Always apply the cleaner to the cloth and not directly on the game. Liquids could enter the cabinet and damage electron- ics inside.

Cleaning the Touchscreen Monitor

•The touchscreen glass should be cleaned with a damp cloth and isopro- pyl alcohol or a non-ammoniacleanser. Do not use any abrasive or vinegar- based cleansers, as they will damage the touchscreen glass. Always apply the cleaner to the cloth and not directly to the glass. Liquids could enter the cabinet and damage electronics inside.

NOTE: DO NOT USE ANY ABRASIVE SOLVENTS, ACID OR VINEGAR-BASED CLEANSERS ON THE TOUCHSCREEN OR SIDE DECALS. SUCH CLEANSERS COULD HARM THE TOUCHSCREEN AND ERASE THE DECALS. BE CARE- FUL NOT TO USE COMMERCIAL CLEANERS CONTAINING ANY OF

THESE SUBSTANCES.

Cleaning the Fans and Vents

•The fans and vents should be cleaned of any dust and grime on a regular basis to ensure proper ventilation of the game.

•To ensure proper operation of the game, it is important that all fans are operating correctly and that the airflow is unobstructed. Make sure nothing is placed next to the fan vents that would inhibit the flow of air. Also, if any fans are not operating, it is important that the game be sent in for service.

Watchdog Timer

This game has been equipped with a fea- ture that allows it to automatically reboot if it encounters a problem. When the watchdog timer is enabled, it will reboot the machine within 2 minutes after a failure, allowing the game to automatically reset itself if a prob- lem arises without needing a technician present.
