• Use the arrow keys to select the icon of the piece to which you want the lifted piece to change into.

• Put the lifted piece on the required square.

• The piece has now changed to the selected piece.

Setting up from an empty board

Another way to set up a position is to start with an empty board. Go to the menu "Set pieces".

Using the arrow keys, select the icon of the piece you want to put on the board. Then place the actual

piece on the board on the intended square. If you want to place more pieces of the same type you can

now place all pieces of this type.

After this you can use the arrow keys to select other pieces and repeat the above steps.

Take care to correctly select the icon when placing pieces. If you accidentally placed a wrong piece, you

can solve it by re-selecting the correct icon.

When you finished setting up the position, select the "Ok/menu" button and make the selections in the

next menu screen as indicated above under "Setting up from the starting position".

The information shown on the display can be adjusted to your preferences. Use

the arrow keys to scroll through the menu and press the "Ok/menu" button to turn

options on or off. Exit the menu by pressing the "Play/Pause" button. If you wish to

return to the previous menu display press the "Back" button.

The chessboard can be switched on or off on the display. The chessboard shows all

your moves. If you want to withdraw a move, you will see the position of the chess

piece on the chessboard.

The clock can be turned on or off on the display. The clock is displayed as soon as

"Game time" is set in the main menu.

The score can be switched on or off on the display. The score shows the strength of

your position or that of the Centaur, but also how strong a possible move is.

Hint can be switched on or off on the display. Centaur can give you hints and suggest

a good move. If this option is activated, a hint will be shown on the display with every

move. If you disable this feature, you can still request hints when you press the "Hint /

Alternative move" button.

Centaur indicates the moves of the game. This list can be displayed in small or large

font.
