KAKURO is a fun new puzzle combining logic and simple addition. Although 

its rules are simple, completing a KAKURO puzzle can be quite a challenge. 

The object of KAKURO is to place a number from 1 to 9 in every available 

square of the game board, where the numbers in each horizontal or vertical 

row when added together must equal the sum provided in the hint squares. 

A number displayed in the top half of a hint square is the sum of the squares 

to the right.  A number displayed in the bottom half of a hint square is the sum 

of the squares below it.  Hint squares may appear anywhere within a puzzle 

and may contain two sums. Note: No sum can contain a duplicate number.  

For example, to total 8 you can enter 7 and 1, 6 and 2, or 5 and 3, but you 

cannot enter 4 and 4.

Your KAKURO requires 2 AAA batteries. Before you can get started, you must 

install the batteries. Replace the batteries as soon as the display begins to 

dim. Please have a small Phillips screwdriver and the new batteries at hand 

before following the steps below to install or replace the batteries. 

Note: Please do not use rechargeable batteries.

Warning! If the batteries wear out completely, or if you take more than a few 

seconds while changing the batteries, the clock and high scores may be reset 

and you may lose your progress in any puzzles you have begun.

     Remove the old batteries if you are replacing them.

Battery disposal: Do not dispose of batteries with normal household waste.

Please obey your local regulations when disposing of used batteries.

Note: If the keyboard fails to respond or if the screen performs erratically, 

perform a system reset. 

Warnings! Resetting the unit resets the clock and high scores, and erases your 

progress in any puzzles you have begun.
