CHEETAH

Sweet Talker

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Enclosed with your "Sweet Talker" you will find a demonstration tape which will explain precisely how to program it.
In order to prevent damage to your "Sweet talker" or computer please ensure that your computer is switched off before plugging or unplugging the unit. Then simply plug it into the user port at the rear of the computer - it will take its power from the existing power supply.
Other accessories, including the "Cheetah" 32K Ram Pack can be used via the card edge connector at the rear of the "Sweet Talker".
Now simply load "Chatbox" and make yourself a friend.
