The legendary King Arthur brandished
a magic sword, Excalibur, from which
we take our company name. With this
unique weapon in his hands, he could
not be vanquished.
Although Excalibur Electronics can't
claim the magical secrets of Merlin,
King Arthur 's court wizard, sometimes
our patented technology may make it
seem as if we could.
We make you think.

Installing Batteries

Your New York Times SuDoku Plug & Play requires four
AAA batteries, not included. To install batteries, carefully
turn the unit over so that it is face-down on a soft surface.
Find the battery compartment on the back of the unit.
Use a small Phillips screwdriver to remove the screw.
Lift off the battery compartment lid. Install the batteries,
making sure to match polarity (+ and -) with the diagram
inside the battery compartment. Place the tab of the battery
compartment lid in its slot and close the compartment door.
Replace the screw and tighten it carefully.
