Intro
The Multi Function Shield is a nice shield with some components to so some experiments with your Arduino. On the shield are two jumpers. It is always the question in what position do you need to put the jumpers. The answer will be in this post.
Before using this shield I added some isolation tape at the bottom as is am not happy with some pins of 7 segment displays close to the metal USB connector. On http://arduinolearning.com/code/multi-function-shield-examples.php i found some easy experiments to start. (using 4 leds, button1, button2, pot1 and the 7 segment display)

Schematic diagram
On http://www.baaqii.com/promanage/manual/A1010.zip i found a zip file with a schematic diagram and about 28 lessons / experiments (in Chinese!).
In the schematic diagram
you can see the jumpers:
J1 is used for a 10 k pull up resistor to pin 2 of U5 (to connect a DS1820 temperature sensor [not included with the shield]) (Arduino Pin A4 ?) {Location C4 in the picture}
J2 is needed if you want to use the switches S1 S2 and S3 (connected to A1 A2 and A3 of the Arduino. {Location C1 in picture}
A SFH506-38 IR receiver (Pin D2) {Location C3 in picture} is also not included with this shield and can be connected to U4
I expect the 7 pin header {Location B/C1 in picture} with the Chinese characters is the header 7 pin header marked on the shield with "APC220 Bluetooth Voice Recognition Module". (Pin D0 and D1 ?)
Pin D5 D6 D9 and A5 are accessible by 4 3 pin header connectors next to +5V and GND
D3 is connected to the Buzzer using a transistor! {Location D3 in picture}
The 4 * 7segement displays are connected using two MC74HC595AD shift registers
D4 7segment Latch
D7 7segment CLK
D8 7segment Data
D10 Led4 {Location A2 in picture}
D11 Led3
D12 Led2
D13 Led1
A0 Pot1 (potentiometer) {Location B/C1 in picture}
A1 Button1 {Location C/D1 in picture}
A2 Button2
A3 Button3
