Important Notes

1. During shipping or in the course of normal play, it is possible for scoring segments of this

board to become temporarily jammed, resulting in a “frozen” board. If this occurs, the built-in Self Diagnostic Function of the e-BOARD Computer will be activated automatically. Your dartboard will run a self-test routine to determine which segment is stuck. An error message will flash on the display together with the number for the “frozen” segment. Take the following steps immediately when the error message appears.

a) Find the “frozen” segment according to the display.

b) Press firmly down on the “frozen” segment until it breaks free and the loose fit is restored.

Once the “frozen” segments are loosened the error message should be gone and the board will continue to operate normally.

2. Never use metal tipped darts on this dartboard! Metal tipped darts will seriously damage the circuitry, the e-BOARD Computer and electronic operation of the dartboard.

3. Do not use excessive force when throwing darts. Throwing a dart too hard will cause

frequent tip breakage and cause excessive wear on the board.

4. Use only the provided AC adapter. Using the wrong adapter may cause electrical shock and damage to the unit!

5. Do not spill liquids on the dartboard. Do not spray cleaners that contain ammonia or other

harsh chemicals, as they may damage the dartboard. Instead, we suggest regular dusting with a damp cloth. Use a mild detergent and a damp cloth for more vigorous cleaning.

Mounting (Physical Installation)

The dartboard should be hung on a wall stud, with the center of the bull’s-eye 68" above the floor. Regulation throwing distance for soft-tip darts is 8 feet, so be sure there are about 10' of open floor space in front of the board.

Place two marks side-by-side on the selected wall stud 75 16" (40 cm) between them. Screw two screws into the reference marks until the screw heads are protruding about

Line up the slotted mounting holes on the back of the game with the screw heads then mount the game. It may be necessary to adjust the screws until the board fits snugly against the wall. After the board is mounted, the bull’s-eye should be 68" (172.72 cm) above the floor.
