ongratulations on your purchase of Excalibur Electronics’
Bridge Tutor. You’ll have hours of fun playing against the
computer.
Your Bridge Tutor is programmed with the most commonly used
system for bidding and playing, the Standard American Yellow
Card (SAYC) system. The 300 hands included in the computer
were carefully researched to provide you with entertaining and
instructional hands to play. Commentaries on the bidding and play
of each hand can be downloaded from our website shown below
or can be sent for at our address located on page 12.
Bridge Tutor is easy to use, but be sure to use it safely. Before
starting, please read this manual thoroughly, especially noting
safety, care and battery information. Keep this manual for refer-
ence.
Installing the Batteries
Your Bridge Tutor requires three
AAA batteries, not included. To
install the batteries, carefully turn
Bridge Tutor over so that the unit is
face-down on a soft surface. Find the
battery compartment on the back of
the unit. Use a small Phillips screw-
driver to remove the screw. Lift off
the battery compartment lid. Install
the batteries, making sure to match
polarity (+ and -). Place the tab of the
battery compartment lid in its slot
and close the compartment door.
Replace the screw and tighten.
