Replacing the Battery Pack

Battery packs become worn with repeated charge/discharge cycles, and the amount of time they can be used when fully charged

will decrease gradually over time. If you feel the usage time has dropped off noticeably replace the battery pack.

• To minimize the risk of damage to your system, do not use any battery other than the Nintendo 3DS rechargeable

battery pack, Model No. CTR-003. A replacement battery may be ordered through Nintendo's website at

store.nintendo.com (USA/Canada only) or by calling Customer Service at 1-800-255-3700.

• A parent or guardian should replace the battery pack if a child is using the system.

• Turn the power off and make sure the AC adapter is unplugged from the Nintendo 2DS system.

Loosen the two Phillips-head (+) screws on the battery cover

with a screwdriver.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the screw or threads,

use a screwdriver that is appropriate for the screw (#00).

Gently pry on the small slot and remove the battery cover as shown below.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to your system, do not use excessive force when opening the cover.

Remove the old battery pack as shown.

Wait at least 10 seconds after removing the old

battery pack before inserting the new battery pack

to make sure the Power LED resets correctly.

Check to make sure it is oriented correctly, as shown

in the illustration.

Replace the battery cover using enough pressure so that it snaps into place. Tighten the two screws, being careful not to

overtighten.

IMPORTANT: Always be sure to replace the battery cover and tighten the screws before resuming use.

NOTE: After replacing the battery, make sure to go to System Settings and reset the time and date.
