Please use the wrist strap to prevent losing your grip on the remote and causing

damage to the remote or surrounding objects, or injury to other people.

WEAR THE WRIST STRAP WHEN USING THE Wii REMOTE PLUS.

• Make sure all players use the wrist strap and that the strap lock is correctly tightened.

• When sharing the Wii Remote Plus between multiple players, make sure each

person uses the wrist strap properly.

• Wearing the wrist strap will prevent you from accidentally dropping or throwing the

remote during gameplay, which could damage the remote or surrounding objects,

or cause injury to other people.

DO NOT LET GO OF THE REMOTE DURING GAME PLAY.

• Read the Instruction booklet for the game you are playing and follow all game

control instructions for correct use of the Wii Remote Plus or accessory controllers.

• Hold the remote securely and avoid excessive motion, as it may cause you to let go

of the remote and may break the wrist strap.

• If your hands become moist, stop and dry your hands.

ALLOW ADEQUATE ROOM AROUND YOU DURING GAME PLAY.

Synchronizing Your Wii Remote Plus with

the Wii mini Console

NOTE: Make sure you have placed batteries in the Wii Remote Plus.

This procedure allows the Wii Remote or Wii Remote Plus to communicate with

the console.

The Wii Remote Plus included with your Wii system has been synchronized

with the console at the factory.

There are two different modes of synchronizing (syncing) a Wii Remote or Wii Remote

Plus with your console:

STANDARD MODE – The Standard Mode procedure is used when adding additional

remotes to your system or if you want to re-synchronize your original remote.

Once synchronized, the remote will stay synced to the console unless you overwrite

this setting by syncing the remote to a different console.

NOTE: With Standard Mode Synchronization, you can synchronize up to 10 Wii

Remote or Wii Remote Plus controllers with your Wii mini console. The data of

the remote that was sychronized ﬁrst is deleted if you synchronize more than 10.

ONE TIME MODE – This mode allows you to temporarily use your remote on a console

other than your own or to use a friends remote on your console. It does not delete

the Standard Mode setting stored in the remote. In this mode, the remote will

only communicate with the console while the power is on. When the power is turned

off the remote will lose its sync with the console.

• Only a Wii Remote or Wii Remote Plus in Standard Mode can turn the console

power ON or OFF.

the connection is complete. See diagram at right for a description of what the

blinking indicates.

During the syncing

process, the number of

LEDs that blink will show

the battery life of the

remote that is being

synchronized.

Be sure to install the Nunchuk as described. Use the connector hook on the Nunchuk plug with the wrist strap cord to prevent the Nunchuk plug from becoming

separated from the External Extension connector on the remote and striking objects or people.

Connecting the Nunchuk

1. Feed the cord on the wrist strap

through the connector hook.

2. Insert the Nunchuk plug into the

External Extension Connector on

the bottom of the remote until it

“clicks” into place.

3. Open the lever on the strap lock and place your hand through the wrist strap. Hold

the remote ﬁrmly in your hand. Slide the strap lock up so that the strap will not fall

off your wrist. Do not over tighten the strap lock so that it’s uncomfortable. It

should just be tight enough to hold the wrist strap in place. Close the lever to

hold the strap lock in place.

Troubleshooting (Before seeking assistance, review the following problems and solutions.)

No picture on TV screen

• Make sure you have completed all steps, in the order that they appear, on the Quick

Setup sheet included with your system.

• Make sure that all components of your setup are plugged into power outlets and that

all components are turned ON.

• Make sure that cable connections are correctly installed and that all plugs are

securely plugged into the appropriate connectors.

• Make sure that the INPUT settings are correct for your particular setup. (Review page

15 on Input Select information.)

No sound is heard or sound quality is poor

• Make sure the TV volume is not turned off or muted.

• Make sure that all audio connections are correctly installed and that all plugs are

securely plugged into the appropriate connectors.

• Make sure the Wii AV Cable is plugged into the “input” connectors on the

TV or VCR, not the “output” connectors.

• Make sure that the INPUT settings are correct for your particular setup. (Review

page 15 on Input Select information.)

• The sound in some games doesn’t begin until the game begins.

• If you have a mono TV or VCR and have left one of the audio cables unconnected

you may not get all game sounds. Use a “Y” Adapter to get both left and right

sound channels.

• If your TV/VCR have both mono and stereo options, make sure they match your setup.

• Check the instruction booklet for the game you are playing to see if there are volume

controls or mono/stereo options that can be set from within the game.

Can’t get past the Language Select screen

• Synchronize your Wii Remote Plus controllers using the procedure on pages 19–22.

• Review the Sensor Bar setup instructions on pages 11–14 to ensure proper placement

and installation.

The console Power LED does not come on, or goes off

during game play

• Make sure the AC Adapter is plugged into both the wall outlet and the back of

the console.

• If the light is still off, disconnect the AC Adapter plug from the wall outlet, wait 2

minutes and plug it back into the outlet. Turn the console power ON.

System unable to read the Wii Game Disc or disc will

not operate in console

NOTE: Game Discs will not start automatically. You must start disc games from the Disc

Channel on the Channel Menu screen.

• Make sure the Game Disc is inserted correctly. The label side of the disc must

face upwards.

• Check to be sure that the Game Disc is clean and in good condition. If dirty, wipe

with a soft cloth, from the center to the outside. Do not wipe with a circular motion.

• Remove the Game Disc, and turn the power OFF and then ON. Reinsert the disc and

try playing the game again.

• Check that the Game Disc will work on your version of the Wii. This system will only

work with Game Discs made for use in the USA, Canada, Mexico and Latin America.

Troubleshooting

Wii Remote Plus lights blink, but don’t stay lit

(remote does not sync)

• Review the Sensor Bar setup instructions in this manual to ensure proper placement.

• Make sure batteries are not depleted.

• Try resetting the Wii Remote Plus - remove the batteries, wait one minute,

then replace the batteries. Wait a few seconds, and then try synchronizing

the remote again.

• If you are unable to re-sync the remote, try the following procedure:

1. Turn off the power of the Wii mini console.

2. Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet for a few seconds, then plug it back

in again.

3. Turn on the power of the Wii mini console.

4. Synchronize your Wii Remote Plus controllers using the procedure on

pages 19–22.

Wii Remote Plus or controller accessory buttons stick

Clean sticking buttons using the following procedure:

1. For the Wii Remote Plus, remove batteries and disconnect any accessories

before cleaning.

2. Use an unused toothbrush and hot tap water. Do not use boiling water,

soap or detergent.

3. Dip the toothbrush in hot water and shake off excess amount. Lightly scrub

sticking buttons, working the bristles around sides of buttons and into cracks.

4. Dry controller with soft cloth or towel and let air dry for at least 2 hours.

5. Test buttons and repeat procedure if necessary. Do not submerge in,

or pour any type of liquid onto a controller or accessory.

Wii Remote Plus doesn’t properly respond to player

motion

(erratic hand cursor, can’t swing bat, can’t bowl, etc.)

• If the lights on your remote blink, but do not stay lit, see the rst troubleshooting

step on this page, at left.

• Review the Sensor Bar setup instructions in this manual to ensure proper

placement.

• Make sure no objects are blocking the signals between the Sensor Bar, the Wii

mini console, and the Wii Remote Plus.

• Make sure batteries are not depleted.

• Check and adjust the Sensor Bar sensitivity if necessary. (See the e-manual.)

The following conditions can interfere with the operation of the remote:

1. Using the remote too close or too far from the Sensor Bar. The optimal distance is

between 3 and 10 feet.

2. Bright light sources, including sunlight, behind or near the TV, shining towards

the remote or reﬂecting off the TV screen.

3. Highly reﬂective surfaces near the sensor bar.

4. Sources of infrared light in the gameplay area such as electric, propane or

kerosene heaters, ﬂames from ﬁreplaces or candles, and stoves or other sources of

heat.

5. Radio frequency interference may cause the Wii Remote Plus to work erratically.

Check for and move or turn off wireless devices such as cordless phones,

wireless computer keyboards or mice or other similar devices.

If you think any of these conditions are affecting the operation of the remote, try

removing or reducing the source of interference.

When playing a game that includes Wii MotionPlus

features, the Wii Remote Plus operates erratically

or unexpectedly.

• The Wii Remote Plus may need to be recalibrated due to the following:

1. Changing batteries in the Wii Remote Plus during gameplay.

2. Moving Wii MotionPlus from a cold environment into a warm environment.

To recalibrate the Wii Remote Plus, place it on a ﬂat horizontal surface with the buttons

facing down. Wait for a few seconds and check the operation. Also, review the instruc-

tion manual for the game you are playing for more information.

NOTE: This procedure must be done during gameplay.

If your Wii system still does not operate correctly after trying

the troubleshooting steps, DO NOT return the console to

the store. Visit support.nintendo.com for assistance and
