2 Wii Balance Board Accessory

2.1 Disconnection Processing for the Wii Remote Controller
Disconnect the Wii Remote on 4P before connecting the Wii Balance Board accessory.
Without this disconnection, the Wii Balance Board accessory cannot be connected.
2.2 Load Restrictions
To prevent users that exceed 150 kg (330 lbs) in weight from using the Wii Balance Board accessory,
display a message similar to "The applied load exceeds the allowable range." and do not continue until
it has been confirmed that the load is 150 kg (330 lbs) or less. Always check the load limit at the same
time as the user's weight after setting the zero point.
The Wii Balance Board accessory is designed for the maximum static weight of 300 kg (661 lbs). As a
result, it is conceivable that users whose weight exceeds 150 kg (330 lbs) may apply a load that
exceeds this expectation.
2.3 Operation Restrictions
To ensure safety, do not ask users to perform the following types of actions on the Wii Balance Board
accessory.
•
Jump
•
Run
•
Stand on the edge of the Wii Balance Board accessory
•
Step on with other people at the same time
•
Perform motions that can easily result in a loss of balance
2.4 Operation Method User Warnings
For example, for a game in which a user may unconsciously be inclined to jump, display a message in
advance to the effect that jumping is not permitted, treat an excessive drop in the load as a jump and
cease game progress, or take some other similar action. Take similar measures if you are concerned
that the user may perform some action, other than a jump, for which their safety cannot be ensured.
2.5 Threshold Value for Stepping On and Off After Setting the Zero Point
[Required]
After setting the zero point, use a load of 2 kg (4 lbs) or greater as the threshold value to determine
when a user has stepped onto and off of the Wii Balance Board accessory. This value does not depend
on the weight of the user.
