The top frame (1) contains navigational help in the form of buttons covering the individual letters of the dictionary. Clicking a letter button here will update the contents of the lower left frame.
The lower left frame (2) contains an index of headwords, arranged in alphabetical order. This frame will only show headwords with the same initial letter, for instance all entries starting with the letter A. To change index click the appropriate letter button in the top frame.
Clicking a headword in the index section will take you straight to the dictionary entry you want, as the headwords listed here are all linked to the actual dictionary entries, which are located in the lower right frame.
The lower right frame (3) contains the dictionary itself, split up into sections matching the headwords' initial letter. You can change the dictionary letter shown here by first clicking a letter button in the top frame and then clicking a headword in the lower left frame.
