1 GETTING STARTED
1.1 I
NSERTING BATTERIES
Insert three AAA or LR03 size batteries
into the compartment in the base. Make
sure the “positive” tip of each battery
matches up with a “+” sign inside the
compartment. You should hear a sound
and a list of languages should appear
on the display – with the word English
“blinking” on and off:
(If this list fails to appear, push a thin
object into the hole on the underside of
the unit marked RESET.)
1.2 S
ELECTING THE LANGUAGE
To make the computer display its
messages in English, simply press the key
marked ENTER. If you want to select
a different language instead, press the
UP or UP UP DOWN arrow key as many times
as necessary until the desired option
“blinks”. Then press ENTER.
1.3 S
TARTING AN ACTIVITY
Brain Station offers 22 activities (puzzles
and games) which fall into 4 categories.
Once you have selected the language, a
list of these categories appears.
1.3.1 S
ELECTING THE CATEGORY
Point to an item on the main menu by
pressing UP or UP UP DOWN as many times as
necessary. When the required option is
“blinking”, press ENTER.
If you choose WORDS, the computer
offers you a further choice:
Each of the word activities can be played
either as a puzzle (for which you obtain
a score) or as a game (i.e. contest). To
switch between these options, press UP
or DOWN . When the option you want is
“blinking”, press ENTER.
