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.
Your New York Times
Touch SuDoku game
requires two AAA batter-
ies. To install batteries,
carefully turn it over so
that the top side is face-
down on a soft surface,
such as a towel or maga-
zine. You’ll find the battery
compartment on the unit’s
back.
Use a small Phillips
screwdriver to remove the
screw. Lift off the battery
compartment lid. Install
two AAA batteries, making
sure to match the polarity
(+ and -) with the diagram
inside the battery compart-
ment. Place the tabs of the
battery compartment in
their slots, and snap the
compartment door back on.
Replace the screw and
tighten it carefully.
