The move the computer shows you is that which it would make in your place.

Each time it’s your turn and you think about the move you are going to make,

the computer has already thought about what its response will be. If you make the

move it is expecting, it will usually make its next move immediately.

In order to follow the thoughts of the computer as it analyses a position:

1. Press HINT while the computer is thinking and light 8 is flashing.

2. The computer will illuminate the coordinates of the square it is thinking

of moving from at that moment. Press that square (or press HINT again).

3. The computer will then illuminate the coordinates of the square it is

thinking of moving to. Press this square (or, again, press HINT). The

computer will then continue thinking.

You now know what move the computer is probably going to make which allows

you to make the most of the wait by starting to think about your response.

XVI. ‘TRAINING’ MODE

The computer has a TRAINING mode, which allows you to improve your game

by indicating whether the move you are going to make is good. A good move

is one that, in the computer’s opinion, will improve your position, or is the best

‘playable’ move if it is impossible for you to improve your position.

To enter TRAINING mode, press the TRAINING button once. The GOOD

MOVE light will illuminate to tell you that TRAINING mode is on. To exit

TRAINING mode, press the TRAINING button again. TRAINING mode

is deactivated when you press NEW GAME; therefore, don’t forget to press

TRAINING again if you want your moves to be evaluated during the next game.

When TRAINING mode is on and the computer considers your move to be

good, it will illuminate the GOOD MOVE light after having indicated the square

it is about to move from.
