Important Wireless Communication Guidelines:
Please be aware of the following concerning wireless link play:
• Do not operate the Nintendo DS within 9 inches of a pacemaker while using the wireless feature.
• Observe and follow all regulations and rules regarding use of wireless devices in locations such
as hospitals, airports, and on board aircraft. Operation in those locations may interfere with or
cause malfunctions of equipment, with resulting injuries to persons or damage to property.
During wireless game play, an icon will appear on either the upper or lower displays showing
the signal strength of the wireless signal. The icon has four
modes depending on the signal strength, as shown below.
• Begin with the distance between systems at about
30 feet or less and move closer or farther apart as
desired, keeping the signal strength at two or more bars
for best results.
• Keep the maximum distance between systems at 65 feet or less.
• The systems should face each other as directly as possible.
• Avoid having people or other obstructions between the DS systems.
• Avoid interference from other devices. If communication seems to be affected by other devices
(wireless LAN, microwave ovens, cordless devices, computers), move to another location or turn
off the interfering device.
