Enlcosed within the packaging of this game is a foldout map. Usethis map for determining and plotting your course heading.

Coordinates:Using a straight edge, plot your course on the foldout map. When itis necessary for the submarine to change from a direct course, makenote of the latitude and longitude of the 'waypoint' (the point atwhich you'll change direction). These are your coordinates.

The initial overall course to be followed will be given to you usinglandmarks. Using the foldout map and the landmarks as a guide,chart your 'way points' on the map and then enter them into thecomputerized charts table located in the control room. You may alsorecieve information via radio, of other specific way points forrendezvous purposes. Type: LOOK MAP to get a close up view. Theflashing point on the map represents your vessel at it's currentlocation.

To begin entering way points Type: PLOT COURSE.

Ranging Sonar - Ranging sonar indicates obstacles within a 100 yard radiusaround the sub.

Depth Gauge - Displays current depth.

Water Temperature Gauge - Displays the current water temp. in degreescelsius.

Time Clock - Displays the time.

Speed Indicator - Displays the speed in Knots.

RPM Indicator - Displays engine RPMs.

Stern Plane Indicator - Indicates the angle of inclination of the SternPlane.

Dive Lever - Use this to change the ballast so that you can surface or dive.Use the up/down arrow keys or drag it with the mouse.

Engine Lever - Use this to change the running speed of your sub. Change itwith the +/- keys, or drag it with the mouse.

Silent Running On/Off - Use the shift-F4 key to turn this on or off. Whenitis on it will help mask the noise of you sub.

Sonar On/Off - Use shift-F4 to turn the sonar on and off.
