1. Use AUTO-UP and press ADVANCE. The Id 00 display initially appears. Press ADVANCE
until the Player 3 display indicates Ad 01. If the factory setting has not changed, the Player
1 and 2 Score displays indicate AUTO REPLAY, and the Player 4 display shows 10%,
indicating a 10% replay percentage. (The game program adjusts itself automatically, as
discussed in the following text concerning the 'details' about Adjustment Item 01.)

settings for the Game Adjustment Items have been made. The preceding Game Adjustment
Table consolidates the Factory Settings into one grouping.
(The same procedure can be used for Audit Iterns. To zero Au 01 - 04 (concerning the coin
chutes and the total coins), the operator can proceed to item 68, Clear Coins, and press the
Credit button to obtain the YES option. The operator then presses the ADVANCE button
and notes the "DONE" display, which verifies th at the entry values for items 01 through 04 of
the Audit Items are now reset to zero.)
For example, the operator may desire to change the degree of game play difficulty from the
Factory Setting (equivalent to the Install Mediu m [Ad 64] difficulty, along with a number of
other automatically installed settings, as shown in the right column of the Game Adjustment
Table) to another difficulty more suitable for the players at a particular game site. Four other
'automatic' play difficulty settings (Ad

are available, each of which, if selected,
installs all the adjustments listed for that difficulty in the Game Adjustment Setting Comparison
Table, which precedes the 'details' text.
