WARNING
II
After assembly and installation at its site location, this game must be plugged into a properly
grounded outlet to prevent shock hazard, and to assure proper game operation. DO NOT
use a 'cheater' plug to defeat the ground pin on the line cord. DO NOT cut off the ground
pin.
POWERING UP
With the coin door closed, plug the game in, and switch it ON, using the On-Off switch. In
normal operation, the player 1 score display initially shows 00. Then, the game goes into the
Attract Mode (playfield and backbox lamps flashing, sounds being heard, etc., if the operator
does not change the Factory Setting).
Open the coin door and press the AUTO-UPIMANUAL-DOWN switch to MANUAL-DOWN.
Press the ADVANCE button to begin the game test routine. Return to AUTO-UP and perform
the entire test to verify that
the
game is operating satisfactorily.
NOTE
The SYSTEM 11C game program has a great capability to aid the operator and service
personnel: At game Turn-On (and also at the beginning of the Test/Diagnostic Procedures),
the player score displays now signal with a message, "Press ADVANCE for Report", that the
game program has detected a possible problem with the game. Usually, this report indicates
that at least one switch has NOT been actuated during ball play for 90 balls (apx. 30 games).
However, the game program compensates the game play requirements affected by each
disabled switch to allow 'nearly normal' play. This helps keep

earning good
profits! More information is available in the Test/Diagnostic Procedures text describing the
Switch Testing.
ATTRACT
MODE*
Playfield and backbox lamps blink. The player score displays exhibit a series of messages
informing the player concerning:
A. Recent highest scores*;
B. A "custom message";
("DR. DUDE, THE DOCTOR IS IN...")*;
C. The score to achieve to obtain a
Replayaward*;
These (or similar) displays reappear occasionally, accompanied by sounds and music, until a
player initiates game play by inserting a COinor, when credits are available, pressing the
Start button.
