When you install a temporary upgrade, place it face up next to your player mat on the opposite side from where you keep your uninstalled, face-down upgrade cards. You can have a maximum of 3 temporary upgrades next to your player mat at a time. When you may use a temporary upgrade is based on what it does:

• Movement Upgrades may be used either immediately before or after your robot executes its Programming Card Activation.

• All other temporary upgrades may be used at any time. Once used and the effect is resolved, discard the temporary upgrade to the upgrade discard pile. As such, these upgrades are good for one use only.
