Microsoft RKH-00041 User Manual

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 or Xbox Customer Support. 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 www.xbox.com/support.

•  Confirm that your electrical outlet provides the type of

power indicated on the power supply unit (in terms of 

voltage [V] and frequency [Hz]). If you are not sure of the 

type of power supplied to your home, consult a qualified

electrician.

•  Do not use non-standard power sources, such as 

generators or inverters, even if the voltage and 

frequency appear acceptable. use only aC power 

provided by a standard wall outlet.

•  Do not overload your wall outlet, extension cord, power 

strip, or other electrical receptacle. Confirm that they are

rated to handle the total current (in amps [a]) drawn by 

the Xbox 360 console (indicated on the power supply 

unit) and any other devices that are on the same circuit.

•  Do not connect any other devices between the power 

supply unit and the Xbox 360 console or between the 

power cord and the power supply unit.

to avoid damaging the power cords and power supply:
•  protect the power cords from being walked on.
•  protect cords from being pinched or sharply bent, 

particularly where they connect to the power outlet, the 

power supply unit, and the console.

•  Do not jerk, knot, sharply bend, or otherwise abuse the 

power cords.

•  Do not expose the power cords to sources of heat.
•  Do not wrap power cords around the power supply unit.
•  Keep children and pets away from the power cords. Do 

not allow them to bite or chew on them.

•  when disconnecting the power cords, pull on the plug—

do not pull on the cord.

•  Do not let the power supply unit hang from either power 

cord.

If a power cord or power supply unit becomes damaged in 

any way, stop using it immediately. Visit  

www.xbox.com/support for Xbox Customer Support contact 

information.
unplug your Xbox 360 console during lightning storms or 

when unused for long periods of time.

your controller comes already wirelessly connected 

to your console, right out of the box. 

the wireless controller uses either disposable aa 

or Lr6 batteries (included) or the Xbox 360 play 

and Charge Kit (sold separately). If you plan to use 

disposable batteries, you should familiarize yourself 

with the “Disposable Battery Safety” section that 

follows. 
To insert batteries: 
1  press the tab on the top of the aa battery pack 

and pull down to detach it from the controller. 

2  Insert two new aa (Lr6) batteries with their 

positive (+) and negative (–) ends as shown 

on the underside of the battery pack. For best 

performance, aa rechargeable batteries are not 

recommended.

3  Slide the aa battery pack back into place on the 

controller and push it in to lock.

To avoid pinching your fingers when inserting, push

cover.
