Charging the Game Boy micro Battery Pack

Do not use the Game Boy micro AC Adapter during a lightning storm. There may be
a risk of electric shock from lightning.

Before you use the Game Boy micro for the first time, or after you have not used it for a
long time, you must charge the battery. (If the Game Boy micro will not be used for long
periods of time, the battery should be recharged at least once every six months.)

When fully charged, the battery will last from six to ten hours depending on the type of
game activity. It takes approximately 2-1/2 hours to recharge the battery. (The actual time
varies depending on how much battery life you have left.) You can play games while
recharging the battery, but the recharge time will be longer.

The battery can be recharged approximately 500 times, but performance may decrease
after repeated recharges, depending on usage conditions such as temperature. (Optimal
charging temperature is between 50 and 95 degrees Fahrenheit.) Battery life may also
decrease over time. After 500 recharges, battery life may be only 70% of the battery life
when new.

Charging the Game Boy micro Battery Pack (Cont.)

The START and SELECT Power Indicator LEDs indicates the charge status of the
battery pack:

• When you turn the power ON, the LEDs may blink blue for about 3 seconds.

This indicates adequate charge in the battery pack.

• When you turn the power ON, the LED may blink red for about 3 seconds.

This indicates that the battery pack should be recharged.

• During game play, the LED may light red and stay on. This indicates that the battery

pack should be recharged.

Save your game progress and recharge the battery pack

as soon as possible.

• During the recharge process, the LED will light blue and stay on until the battery pack is

fully charged.

IMPORTANT: The Game Boy micro AC Adapter is only for use with the Game Boy
micro handheld video game system. It is not compatible with the original Game Boy,
Game Boy pocket, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, Game Boy Advance SP or
the Nintendo DS.

Charging the Game Boy micro Battery Pack (Cont.)

1. Insert the DC Connector Plug from the AC Adapter into the External Extension

Connector on the top of the Game Boy micro.

IMPORTANT: Be sure the DC Connector Plug is facing in the correct direction before
inserting into the connector to avoid damaging either the plug or connector. (The
Nintendo logo should face up.)

2. Swing the prongs out of the AC Adapter and insert into a standard 120-volt AC wall

outlet. The START and SELECT Power Indicator LEDs will light blue until the battery is
fully charged.

IMPORTANT: Be sure that the prongs are fully inserted into the outlet. The AC
Adapter is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mounted position.
When disconnecting any plugs from the Game Boy micro or the wall outlet, carefully
pull by the plug itself rather than by the cord

3. When fully charged, remove the AC Adapter from the wall outlet and fold the prongs

back into the housing. Remove the DC Connector Plug from the External Extension
Connector.
