For a quick, “Grab & Go” game of Lazer Tag®, simply follow these steps:

1. Press the TRIGGER to wake your TAGGER up.

2. Verify that the power-up SFX are played, and “LTAG” appears on the LCD screen.

3. Press the Trigger to start the Classic LAZER TAG “LTAG” game. All players should press their triggers together, so that everybody starts at the same time.

4. The LCD Screen will display a 10-second countdown during which time the players should take their desired positions.

5. At T-0 the TAGGER will say “GOOD LUCK” and the game will begin.

6. Aim and get tagging!

The Classic LAZER TAG game is an “individuals” game, which means that all other players are your opponents. The winner is the last player not tagged out. Each player has unlimited reloads, 10 Mega-Tags, 15 seconds of shields, and is tagged out after receiving 10 tags from other players.

After a player is tagged out, their Game Time will continue to run for another 2 minutes and the number of minutes and seconds which they lasted before being tagged out will be shown below the Game Time. Any player who has cheated by restarting their TAGGER in mid-game will have a much lower Game Time than anyone else, so players can check each others’ timers to ensure no player has done this.

A TAGGER will go to sleep if there is no activity for two minutes after being tagged out. To maintain your game timer longer than this, press OK once a minute or so until the game is over for all players, then you can compare timers.

Classic LAZER TAG is not a Hosted game, so it does not require Hosting and Joining the way the other more advanced games do. It also does not support Debriefing and Scoring at the end of the game.

To turn your TAGGER off, press 2nd F + CANCEL.

If you’d like to start another game, just press the TRIGGER.

Please be sure to read and follow all instructions carefully before using this product. Before you can begin playing with your LAZER TAG Deluxe 1 Player System you must first install batteries.

1. For Zone Games, set the Indoor/Outdoor Switch to “Outdoor” for a larger zone, or “Indoor” for a smaller zone.

2. During general use, the Indoor/Outdoor Switch should be set at “Outdoor.” If you experience stray or incidental tags when playing in an enclosed area, switch the Indoor/ Outdoor switch to “Indoor” to minimize reflective signals.

4. Tags can be registered from a distance, even if it exceeds your lock-on and verification capabilities. This means you can sometimes score a long distance tag without audio/ visual verification. Even if your TAGGER is not locking on to its target, it is often worth attempting a long distance tag in excess of 100 feet using the manual sight alone.

3. There are two sights on the left side of the Tagger™* Unit to assist in accurate launching of tags. Line up your target by using the two sights for increased accuracy in targeting.

IMPORTANT NOTE: When joining, hosting or debriefing, switch the Speaker On/Off Switch to Off [ ].

BUTTONS

The following buttons are used to enter information into your TAGGER before, during, and after the game. Each button has two functions: its Main Function and its Second Function.

2ndF: Hold this button down and quickly press then release any

of the other buttons to perform that button’s Second Function. Pressing and holding 2ndF for more than 2 seconds at any time during an actual game mutes or un-mutes the sound effects.

INC: Selects the next item in a list of options, or increases a

number value by 1. Second Function: 2ndF + INC = Increases the number value by 10.

DEC: Selects the previous item in a list of options, or decreases

a number value by 1. Second Function: 2ndF + DEC = Decreases the number value by 10.

OK: Enters the selected option or value. Second Function: Starts

or ends the game immediately (only the Host can do this).

CANCEL: Cancels the value or option just selected and backs-

up a step, or dismisses Medic-Mode requests. Second Function: 2ndF + CANCEL = Quits the game and turns the TAGGER off.

DISPLAY: Selects which set of data is to be displayed during

the game. Second Function: 2ndF + DISPLAY = Adjusts the LCD contrast.

FUNCTION: Selects the special modes for the Trigger and the

Shield. Holding this button while pulling the Trigger adds MegaTag power to the next tag that you launch. Holding this button while pulling the Shield initiates Medic Mode.

INDOOR/OUTDOOR SWITCH: Decreases the intensity of

the tag signal for use indoors so that you don’t accidentally “splatter” your teammates with reflecting tags.
