Use the 4-way navigation key or number keys for moving the blinking "pointer" around. Move this pointer over the piece you want to move, and press the select (or center) key. (If you selected the wrong piece by mistake, press 0 to deselect.) Now select the square to move to. After you make your move, the switches on the side of the board will turn, indicating who's the next player to move. When ChessBuddy is thinking, its move switch will blink. To get back to the menu, you can always press the menu button under the display. Enjoy!

Captures:

Below the board, you can view a list of captured pieces: it gets updated automatically throughout the game. The number below each type of piece indicates how many pieces of this type have been captured.
