Solve the first layer: Like the 3x3 Rubik's Cube, solve five edges flrst and then five corners
Solve the edges on the flrst layer as follows:

Nofice: While twisiing one edge to the position before algorithm in figure 3 or figure 4,
remember to return the already solved edges to avoid troubles. Orient the lower corners
on the third layer: There are totally 5 pieces, Turn them to the correct positions in spite
of their colors. (After 5+5 corners on lhe third layer ard 5 comers on top are in corrcct
position, orient tle correct colors, However, you can flip the correct colors at any time.)
