The Inline Release

Your controller cord has an inline
release. This is a safety feature
designed to reduce the chance
of the Xbox 360 or computer
falling when the cord is pulled. If
the console or computer falls
and hits someone, especially a
small child, it could cause
serious injury. To reduce the risk
of injuries or damage to the
console or computer, it is
important to use the controller
and the inline release properly.
Use the controller connector, not
the inline release, to routinely
connect and disconnect the
controller. If an inline release
disconnects, simply reconnect it
by aligning the grooved
8
indentations and pressing the two
parts completely together. The
controller will not work unless
the inline release is connected
properly.
Never tape, glue, or otherwise
prevent an inline release from
pulling apart.
The inline release reduces, but
does not eliminate, the risk of
the computer or console being
pulled off its surface. To further
reduce the risk:
• Do not allow anyone to pull on
the controller or controller cord
in a way that causes the
computer or console to move.
• Do not allow controller cords to
become crossed or tangled with
one another.
