Failure to properly set up, use, and care for the Xbox 360 video

game and entertainment system can increase the risk of serious

injury or death, or damage to the Xbox 360 video game and

entertainment system. Read this manual and the manuals of any

accessories for important safety and health information. Keep all

manuals for future reference. For replacement manuals, go to

www.xbox.com/support.

and

, respectively.

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 Xbox LIVE

®

, 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 unauthorized 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 authorized

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

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 spin.

4

Press the connect button on the controller and wait for the

controller lights to spin.

After the lights on the controller and console spin and flash once,

the controller is 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.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Warning

As with many other electrical devices, failure to take the

following precautions can result in serious injury or death from

electric shock or fire or damage to the Xbox 360 console.

Select an appropriate power source for your Xbox 360 console:

• Use only the power supply unit and AC power cord that

came with your console or that you received from an

authorized repair center. If you are not sure if you have the

correct power supply unit, compare the model number on

the power supply unit with the model number specified on

your console. If you need a replacement power supply unit

or AC power cord, you can find Xbox Customer Support

contact information at


• Confirm that your electrical outlet provides the type of power

indicated on the power supply unit (in terms of voltage [V]
