Install the Batteries

With Touch Chess facedown, find the battery door. Open it and insert two (2) fresh, alkaline AAA batteries in the bat- tery holder. Note the arrangement of the batteries called for by the diagram in the holder. Make sure that the positive tip of each battery matches up with the + sign in the battery compartment so that polar- ity will be correct. When the batteries are properly installed, Touch Chess automat- ically turns on and starts talking letting you know she's ready for action. If Touch Chess does not start talking, use a thin pointed object and press the RESET but- ton. Replace the battery compartment panel and remove the stylus resting in its holder on the back of the unit. Now turn Touch Chess over.
