The yellow centre
Put the four yellow centre pieces opposite the white ones.
- You start with (input)The white centre
- Result you will get after finishing this stepThe yellow centre
How to do it
- Turn the cube over so white is at the bottom. The opposite face, now on top, is yellow: bring the 4 yellow pieces there.
- Yellow can only be on the sides now: turn the whole cube (y) to bring that face to the front, turn until the yellow piece is top right, turn until a not-yet-yellow spot is front left, then follow the picture. The formula leaves the white face alone.
- Repeat until the top has all 4 yellow pieces.
One piece at a time, until all 4 are in

This step: look only for
- Piece
- Centre pieces
- Colours
- Yellow
- Where
- The sides
- How many
- 4, one at a time
Leave every other piece alone for now: the pictures show them in grey. Found one? Compare it with the cases below.
Which case do you have?
Before you compare and all through the formula: keep the front (the face marked FACING YOU in the pictures) turned towards you. A picture marked BACK, AWAY FROM YOU looks from behind: do not turn the cube, just tilt it to see the back.
