1. HOW TO PLAY

• This machine is a multi-player racing game that allows several people to play at
the same time, up to a maximum number of eight.

• When two or three players are competing against each other, the computer car
is included and competition is between four cars.
When four or more players compete against each other, competition is amongst
those players only.
When only one player is playing, he/she competes against the computer cars.

[Game Summary]

• The object of the game is to complete the set number of laps as fast as possible
within the set time.

• The game is over after completing the set number of laps. The finishing position,
lap time, and total time are displayed at the end of the game.

• If the set time runs out (becomes "0") before the laps are completed, the game
is over.

[Starting the Game]

• Insert a coin/s. Move the shift lever up or down to select the method of shifting,
AT (auto) or MT (manual) and then depress the accelerator.

• Next, move the shift lever up or down to select the level of difficulty (beginner,
expert, expert (pro)) and then depress the accelerator. Expert (pro) is selected
by selecting expert and depressing the accelerator while at the same time
pressing the view change button. In a linked game expert (pro) class is set only
if all participating players select it.

• After making selections, wait for the empty seat entry.

• A linked game starts when all of the connected seats have been entered, or
when another player enters from another seat within twenty seconds after the
coin/s have been inserted.
If there is no entry by another person within the twenty seconds, the game starts
as a single player.

• A single player game can be started without waiting for other players by inserting
a coin/s while pressing the view change button.

and in accordance with the Installation and Commissioning manual.
The supplied guard fence is to ensure customers do not get too close to the
machine or get injured. Make sure that the fence is fitted to the machine
correctly and the rubber safety mats are in place.
Parts of this machine move during game play, so there are places where
the distance between the stationary section and moveable section changes.
There are warning stickers to keep hands and feet clear of moving parts,
however if the operator feels that a customer playing the game is in any
danger, he should warn the customer accordingly.
Ensure customers do not get hurt by leaning or climbing on the seat base or
fence. Be especially careful in the case of young children.
The warning stickers must always be kept in good condition and replaced if
worn so that the customer can read them clearly.

If there is an error or problem with this machine, operation must be
stopped immediately .

NOTES:

The Mains voltage to this machine should be within the range of
220 to 240v AC and the transformer input matched accordingly.

Be sure that the power is turned OFF when replacing parts and
connecting/disconnecting connectors.

to prevent possible electric shocks due to failure, this machine MUST
fitted with a securely connected earthed plug.
The monitor and power supply contain areas of very high voltage. Be

extremely careful when inspecting or making adjustments.
When unplugging the game from an electrical outlet, always grasp the

plug, not the mains lead.

• Always return PC Boards to your dealer for repair. Never test the PCB for
continuity with a multimeter or similar device. The PCB contains sensitive
devices which could be damaged or even destroyed by the internal voltage of
