17. Display contrast adjustment If necessary, the contrast of the display can be adjusted in 16 steps. The clock must be in pause mode( showing > ||). Now press and hold the button. The option number will be shown. Keep the button pressed, and press the button repeatedly to darken the display or press the button repeatedly to make the display lighter. Release the button when done. The contrast setting is kept until the batteries are removed.
18. Detailing on time corrections If you make a time correction during an option with more time periods normally the clock will assume that the same period is active as when time correction started. So when, for example, during option 9, in period 2( Bonus), the time is corrected to 1 hour the bonus method will stay active.
Option 16: Bonus tournament, however, offers the possibility to allot a number of moves for each period. If the move numbers for each period are programmed to a non-zero number then, during time correction, the move number can be changed and the correct period calculated from that.
19. Detailing on manual setting Parameters are kept in every manual set option until you change them or the batteries are removed. If after a manual set option, the game is ended and the same manual set option is selected again, the parameters from the previous setting are conserved. See section 10 for a quick way to start the new game. If in a multiple period setting, a period is programmed with zero period time, this period and the following periods are skipped during the game. When a period is programmed with a zero value of the main thinking time no further parameters can be set for this and the following periods.
The manual set option 16: Bonus tournament is the most advanced option. Notice that when the move number for a period is programmed zero the period will end when a player runs through zero time. When for a period zero moves are programmed the eventual trailing periods will be set to zero moves automatically. These trailing period move numbers cannot be set to non-zero value.
20. Care and cleaning Your DGT NA is a durable, well-made product. If you treat it with reasonable care it should give you years of trouble-free performance. To clean the clock use only a slightly-moistened soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers.
