MATCHMAKER Your SA-103 has an amazing way to look up words. There are two Matchmaker symbols: a "?" (Letter Detective) and an "V" (Fragment Finder). Your screen should look like the one below:
Let's try a different way of using the Fragment Finder. [. . . ] Another reason for this screen to appear is if you misspell a word you are trying to add to the User List. It is a good idea to double-check the spelling of the word you are trying to enter if this screen appears. Since we know that "ninja" is the correct spelling, press the letter "Y". The "U" next to the word indicates that it is a User list word only, and not a word from the SA-103's main list. The message "User list 2" (letting you know that 2 words are in the list) flashes and the screen below appears.
until the word you want to delete from the list is on the screen. The message "Word removed" appears and "farmer" is left on the screen. The screen below appears:
If you press "Y" the entire User List will be erased. If you made a mistake, and didn't really want to press the letter "C", press "N" and the User List will not be erased. The message "List is cleared" appears.

Now type in the word to be guessed and press ENTER . Now choose the number of tries your opponent will have to guess the word. E Jumble: This game takes words from your User List and jumbles them so that you have to "unjumble" them and spell the word correctly. If you haven't added any words to the User List, you can't play Jumble. After you select the game, on the screen you will see the message "Getting a word" and then a word with jumbled letters. If you are correct, you'll get the message "You win!!". If you guess wrong, you'll see "No, try again" and you'll get another chance. F Word Blaster: In this game you must guess a word that the SA-103 picks and shows you one letter at a time. Here's how to play: After you select the game, if you have entered a User List you will have the option of choosing the Main List or the User List to take words from. If you choose the Main List, you'll need to set the size of the words to be used. The next option you'll need to set is the speed of the game (1 = slowest, 10 = fastest).

Now the SA-103 will start showing you one letter of the word at a time. [. . . ] Finding the definition of a word is easy because you know what page to turn to before you even open up the book. But, most importantly, the SA-103 makes learning to use the dictionary fun!*If the envelope is missing, to order the printed dictionary you may call 1 (800) 762-5382. The page number will then appear on the screen.
