GENERAL INFORMATION
The RESET h o l e
Ivan may occasionally “lock up” due to static discharge or some other sort of
electrical disturbance. If this occurs, press the RESET button on the bottom
of the game. Use of this button will clear the computers memory.
NOTE: After using the RESET, the computer will have forgotten any game
positions that may have been in its memory.
ON AND OFF
The IVAN is never really “off” as long as batteries are installed or the adapter
is plugged into a wall outlet. It will be in a sleep mode and continue to draw
power. It is very important that you remember this if you are using only
batteries to power your computer. If the computer has a position in its
memory and you put it away for a period of time, you may find that the
batteries are drained when you go to use it again. If you do not play with your
IVAN for a period of time and do not remember whether or not you cleared
the board the last time you played with it, you should use the RESET button
to clear any data that may be stored in its memory. You may also use the
VERIFY button to remind you of the position the last time you played.
THINGS YOU SHOULD NEVER DO!
Never handle the IVAN roughly. It is a precision electronic device.
Never expose the IVAN to moisture or extreme temperatures.
Never use chemical agents to clean the unit.
Never use anything except a soft damp cloth to clean the unit.
Never mix new batteries with old batteries.
Never mix Alkaline and Carbon Zinc batteries.
