The recharge LED will light up when charging begins, and turn off when charging is finished. When charging has finished, remove the
AC adapter plug from the electrical outlet and remove the DC connector plug from the system.
Note:
•
If you play a game while the system is recharging, the recharge LED may not always turn off once charging has completed.
This is not a malfunction.
•
To detach the system from the AC adapter, hold the system and the DC connector plug, not the cable, while you remove it.
About charging
•
The system takes approximately 3 hours 30 minutes to fully recharge when off. Charging time may vary if the system is being used while charging,
or depending on the level of charge remaining in the battery.
•
Charge the system in an environment of 5 – 35°C. Attempting to charge the battery while the ambient temperature is outside this range may degrade
the battery and prevent it from charging. If the ambient temperature is low, the battery may not charge completely.
•
Battery life decreases slightly over time as the battery is continually used and recharged. After 500 recharges, battery life may be reduced to 70% of
the battery life at the time of purchase.
•
Make sure to charge the battery at least once every six months. Lithium-ion batteries can slowly lose their charge over time if they have not been
used for a while. If the system is not used for an extended period of time, the battery may become overdischarged and may be impossible to charge
when connecting the AC adapter.
•
If you feel the usage time has noticeably reduced, it may be time to replace the battery. Please contact Nintendo Customer Service for more
information.
