Solve the Centers

Solve the 4 Centers on each side of the Cube

Goal

Solving the centers requires you to get aquainted with the color layout. The color layout is found by observing the Corner pieces or by knowing that the Rubik's Cube follows a certain color layout.

To solve the Centers, swap two Center pieces at a time from adjacent faces until all six colors are grouped. After solving one color, remember to follow the color layout above when choosing the next color and face.

Step 1

To swap the two Center pieces that are on adjacent faces, hold the Cube so that the pieces are on the UP and RIGHT faces.

Step 2

If needed, turn U until the desired Center piece of the UP face is in the highlighted position and turn R until the Center piece of the RIGHT face is in the highlighted position.

Step 3

Follow this sequence to swap the pieces.

Step 4

Continue swapping Center pieces until al 6 faces (24 Center pieces) are solved in the correct color layout.

Congratulations

If your Cube looks like this, you have solved the Centers!
