Charging the Battery Pack
Do not use the Nintendo 3DS AC adapter during a lightning storm. There may be a risk of
WARNING
electric shock from lightning.
IMPORTANT: The Nintendo 3DS AC adapter, Model No. WAP-002(USA), is for use only with the Nintendo 3DS family of
systems and the Nintendo DSi and Nintendo DSi XL systems. It is not compatible with any other Nintendo system.
Do not use the AC adapter with voltage transformers, dimmer switches, or any other equipment. It is only for use in
a standard 120-volt AC wall outlet.
Insert the DC plug from the AC adapter into the AC adapter connector on the back of the Nintendo 2DS. Be sure to insert
1
it straight into the connector.
IMPORTANT: Be sure the DC connector plug is facing in the correct direction (logo faces up) before inserting
into the connector to avoid damaging either the plug or connector.
Swing the prongs out of the AC adapter and insert into a standard 120-volt AC wall outlet. The recharge LED will light,
2
indicating the system is charging. When fully charged, the recharge LED will go out. When charging is complete, remove
the AC adapter from the wall outlet and fold the prongs back into the housing.
NOTE: If you play a game while recharging, the recharge LED may not always turn off once charging has completed.
• Battery recharge time is approximately 3 1/2 hours, depending on remaining charge when you start and whether or not you
are using your system during recharging.
Power LED status
The power LED lights when the system is on. The color and status of the LED changes depending on the remaining battery charge.
(The Notification LED will also blink red when the battery charge is very low.)
NOTE: If you run out of remaining battery life while playing a game, you must replay the game from your last saved
location. If the power LED turns red, save your game and charge the system.
If you put the system into Sleep Mode while the power LED is a steady blue light, the LED will slowly brighten and darken.
Battery endurance
The battery endurance times are estimates. They will vary depending on factors such as the software being played, the amount of
data received by wireless communication, and the ambient temperature. Using the camera features may also reduce the battery
endurance time. Approximate play times for Nintendo 3DS software are 3.5–5.5 hours, and for Nintendo DS software 5–9 hours.
• If you put the system in Sleep Mode when not using it, you can reduce power consumption while still being able to send and
receive information from StreetPass and SpotPass via the wireless communication features. If the system is fully charged and put
into Sleep Mode, the system's battery endurance time in Sleep Mode is roughly 3 days.
• The power LED slowly brightens and darkens while the system is in Sleep Mode. NOTE: Depending on the software you are using,
sometimes pushing the Sleep switch will not cause the system to enter Sleep Mode. In these cases the power LED will remain
steadily lit. (For example, when listening to music with Nintendo 3DS Sound.)
