Please note the following, in regard to Level and Teach Modes:

If NEW GAME is pressed during a game, the computer will exit Teach Mode and switch back to the standard 32-piece game, with the current level still in effect.

If you press LEVEL and then decide not to change the current playing level or Teach Mode, simply press LEVEL again—and the current status will remain as it is.

You may select a new level at any time during your turn. If you do so, however, note that the clock will be reset.

If you press more than 2 Piece Symbol Keys during a Teach Mode selection, only the last 2 symbol selections will be valid when you exit Level Mode.

If you accidentally press a Piece Symbol Key in Level Mode, you will lose your current game after exiting Level Mode. To continue with the current game, press the square corresponding to the current level of play before exiting Level Mode. Note, however, that the clock will have been reset.
