Before allowing children to use the Xbox 360 video game system: 1 Determine how each child can use the Xbox 360 console (playing games, connecting to the Xbox service, chatting or video messaging with other players online, replacing batteries, making electrical, AV cable, and network connections) and whether they should be supervised during these activities. 2 If you allow children to use the Xbox 360 console without supervision, be sure to explain all relevant safety and health information and instructions. The Xbox 360 console will not play copied or "pirated" games or other unauthorised media. Attempting to defeat the Xbox 360 anti-piracy protection system may cause your Xbox 360 console to stop working permanently. It will also void your Limited Warranty, and may make your Xbox 360 console ineligible for authorised repair, even for a fee. You must accept the terms and conditions of the Limited Warranty and this manual to use your Xbox 360 console. If you do not accept these terms and conditions, do not set up or use your Xbox 360 video game system and return it to Microsoft or your retailer for a refund. Cables Arrange all cables and cords so that people and pets are not likely to trip over or accidentally pull on them as they move around or walk through the area. When the console and sensor are not in use, you may need to disconnect all cables and cords from the front and rear of the console to keep them out of the reach of children and pets. Do not allow children to play with cables and cords. Prevent the Console from Falling If the Xbox 360 console falls and hits someone, especially a small child, it could cause serious injury. To reduce the risk of such injuries and damage to the Xbox 360 console, set up the Xbox 360 console according to these instructions. Place the console on a surface that: • Is flat and level. • Is stable and not likely to tip over. • Allows all four feet of the console to be in contact with the surface. • Is not likely to allow the console to slip or slide off. • Is clean and free of dust and debris. If the surface or console feet become dirty or dusty, clean them with a dry cloth. If the console is positioned vertically, put it on a surface where it is not likely to fall if it tips over. Prevent the Console from Overheating Do not block any ventilation openings on the console or power supply. Do not place the console or power supply on a bed, sofa, or other soft surface that may block ventilation openings. Do not place the console or power supply in a confined space, such as a bookcase, rack, or stereo cabinet, unless the space is well ventilated. Do not place the console or power supply near any heat sources, such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or amplifiers. Avoid Smoke and Dust Do not use the console in smoky or dusty locations. Smoke and dust can damage the console, particularly the DVD drive. Position Your Xbox 360 You can position your console horizontally or vertically, whichever you prefer. However, if you change your console's orientation, make sure it is turned off with no disc in the tray. However you position your console, make sure to not block any ventilation openings or the IR receiver. Disc Use Make sure the disc is held in place by the tabs on the disc tray so that it doesn't fall out. To avoid jamming the disc drive and damaging discs or the console: • Remove discs before moving the console or tilting it between the horizontal and vertical positions. • Never use cracked discs. They can shatter inside the console and jam or break internal parts. • When the console is vertical, do not use discs that are smaller than standard DVDs and CDs. Connect Additional Controllers To connect additional wireless controllers to your console, or to connect your controller to a different console, follow these steps. To connect a wireless controller to your console: 1 Press and hold down the Xbox Guide button until the controller turns on. 2 Make sure the console is turned on. If not, touch the power button and allow the console to completely start up. When the Xbox Dashboard or inserted disc runs, the console is ready. 3 Press the connect button on the console and wait for the console lights to flash. 4 Press the connect button on the controller and wait for the controller lights to spin. The lights on the console and controller will remain on once the devices are connected. Headset Damage To prevent damage to any headset, avoid sitting or stepping on the headset, its cable, or the cable connector. Important Stationary images in video games can "burn" into some TV screens, creating a permanent shadow. Consult your TV owner's manual of manufacturer before playing games. Do not connect the console through a VCR. Video signals fed through VCRs may be affected by copyright protection systems and the picture will be distorted on the TV.
