Nintendo 2DS Operation Manual page 10

CAREFUL USAGE
•
The AC adapter used with the Nintendo 2DS system should be regularly examined for damage to the cord, plug enclosure and
other parts.
•
The Nintendo 2DS system is not intended for children under 3 years old.
•
The AC adapter is for indoor use only.
Do not repeatedly turn the power on and off
Doing so can lead to malfunction and loss of data on SD cards and in the system memory.
First, always turn the power of your Nintendo 2DS system off before loading or removing a Game Card /
SD card. Insert the Game Card / SD card completely without forcing either the Game Card / SD card or the
Nintendo 2DS system
Failure to do so can affect save data and cause damage to the system or accessories.
Only use compatible accessories
The use of the following devices can lead to malfunction or incorrect functionality:
•
Accessories which are incompatible with the software being used.
•
Devices and accessories that are not compatible.
•
Broken or damaged accessories.
Do not move the Circle Pad violently from side to side
This may damage the controller and could affect game play.
Do not damage the Touch Screen
Doing so can lead to malfunction.
•
Use either the included stylus (FTR-004) or the item specified by the software for on-screen commands. Do not use pens,
metal objects or any other instrument (including fingernails) that could leave scratches on the screen.
•
Do not apply unnecessary pressure to, scrape objects across or stab at the Touch Screen.
•
Do not use the Touch Screen with sand, lint, crumbs or other abrasive materials on it as these could leave scratches. If the
Touch Screen is dirty, use a soft cloth to wipe it clean.
•
The upper screen is not touch sensitive. Do not attempt to use the stylus on it.
Do not expose the cameras to direct sunlight for an extended period of time, and do not directly photograph
the Sun or other intense light sources
Doing so could lead to malfunction of the cameras or discolouration of the photographed images.
•
Images taken by the cameras may be brighter or darker or have slightly different colours than the actual objects photographed.
There may also be permanent light or dark spots on the images. Neither of these cases indicates a defective product.
•
If the lenses get dirty, wipe them gently with a dry, soft cloth or cotton swab to clean them. Be very careful not to press on the
camera lenses when cleaning, as this may cause damage.
18
Do not place the system directly in front of air-conditioning units or
in areas which experience sudden changes in temperature and / or are
subject to condensation
Condensation in the system can lead to malfunction.
Taking the Nintendo 2DS system from a cold environment to a warm one
To avoid condensation in the system, place it into a plastic bag and remove the air
from the bag. Leave the system for approximately 60 minutes, until it warms up to
the temperature of its surroundings, before using it.
If condensation has formed on the system
Turn the system off and leave it for approximately 60 minutes in a warm environment,
until all water droplets have dried, before using it again.
Do not blow into the connectors of the system or Game Cards
Doing so can cause vapour to enter, which may damage the Game Card and / or Nintendo 2DS system.
Do not allow the system to come into contact with paint thinner, alcohol or any other solvent
Doing so can damage the plastic and result in the coating coming off. Be careful not to handle the system after using products like
nail varnish remover. To clean the system, dampen a cloth with warm water, carefully wring out all excess water and then wipe the
system clean. After cleaning, wipe the system down again with a soft, dry cloth. The Nintendo 2DS should be disconnected from the
AC adapter before cleaning.
When disposing of the battery or system, follow appropriate local guidelines and regulations
For information on battery disposal, contact your local solid waste authority (page 77).
•
If you wish to dispose of your system, please delete all your data first. If you do not have a Nintendo Network ID linked to the system,
delete your Nintendo eShop account and then format the system memory. If you have a Nintendo Network ID linked to your system,
however, you will only need to format the system memory. Also, please delete all data on the SD card separately using a computer.
•
If you would like to continue to use another system in the Nintendo 3DS family, you can transfer all your data to the new system
using System Transfer (page 66) instead of deleting it.
