This includes information such as your Mii profile information, age, gender, geographic area, game play data, online status, Nintendo 3DS System serial number and device ID, device certificate information, cookies, Friend Codes, wireless access point information, Internet Protocol (IP) address, and Media Access Control
(MAC) address. We may link your PII with Non-PII or Aggregate Information that we collect from you. Some of the ways in which we collect Non-PII are described in more detail below. Web Beacons: The Nintendo 3DS System, Nintendo 3DS Service, Software, or Content may use a common Internet technology called Web Beacons which are small graphic images placed on a Web page, on a Web-based document, or in an email message, designed to collect certain information and monitor user activity online. We may use Web Beacons to collect information such as IP address, MAC address, the URL of the page the Web user comes from, and the time the Web Beacon is activated (such as when you view the Web page, advertisement, or email con-
taining the Web Beacon). We may use the information collected through Web Beacons, for example, to determine how to improve the Nintendo 3DS System, Nintendo 3DS Service, Software, or Content by seeing which areas, features, and products are most popular; to personalize the Nintendo 3DS System, Nintendo 3DS Service, Software, or Content and make recommendations based on downloaded products; and to complete transactions you have requested. Cookies: Certain Nintendo 3DS System online applications may use cookies, which are small text files that a Web site places on your Nintendo 3DS System. These files identify your Nintendo 3DS System and record data about your visit so that when you return to a Web site, the site recognizes your Nintendo 3DS System and can personalize your visit. Cookies may be linked to your transaction history, online game play or other information. We may use information collected by cookies, as well as other tools such as log files and Web Beacons, for example, to determine how to improve the Nintendo 3DS System applications by seeing which areas, features, and products are most popular; to personalize the Nintendo 3DS System services; make recommendations based on downloaded products; and to complete transactions you have requested. Nintendo Wireless Communications: Your Nintendo 3DS System is automatically assigned an IP address by your Internet Provider when you connect to Nintendo via wireless communications. Nintendo receives a log file of your activities that may include, for example, your IP address, MAC address, cookie information, transaction data, settings and download activity. We may use these log files, for example, to monitor traffic on our Web sites, to facilitate your use of the Nintendo 3DS System, Nintendo 3DS Service, Software, or Content, and to troubleshoot technical problems. If you do not want Nintendo to collect this information, you should turn off wireless communications on your Nintendo 3DS System. Aggregate Information. We also may collect and aggregate certain information about our users game play, age, gender, search terms, clickstreams, and purchases for the purposes of advertising and improving the Nintendo 3DS System, Nintendo 3DS Service, Software, and Content. Aggregate Information is Non-PII that is combined with the Non-PII of other users.

For example, information such as your Mii name, Mii profile information, online status, Mii greeting, and other User Content or game play information may be displayed to other users when you use the online features of the Nintendo 3DS System, Nintendo 3DS Service, Software, or Content. Third Parties. We may share PII, Non-PII, and Aggregate Information with our vendors to help us perform various functions necessary to operate our business or fulfill your requests (for example, completing downloads or purchases, developing and executing marketing campaigns, etc.).

The StreetPass Communications feature allows PII, Non-PII and User Content that you have provided or that is stored on your Nintendo 3DS System to be shared automatically with other Nintendo 3DS System users via a wireless connection, the Nintendo Zone or a StreetPass Communication Point. You understand that you have no expectation of privacy in the information or User Content shared via StreetPass Communications.

Nintendo does not have access to the information these third parties may collect about your interests to deliver relevant advertising to you, and the information practices of these third parties are not covered by this Privacy Policy.

ATTENTION PARENTS OR LEGAL GUARDIANS: PROTECTING CHILDRENS PRIVACY Nintendo is committed to protecting your childs privacy. The Nintendo 3DS System is directed to a general audience, but where Nintendo has actual knowledge that a user is under the age of 13, Nintendo complies with the U.S. Childrens Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), which governs how operators of websites and online services collect, use, and disclose PII from children under the age of 13 on the Internet. You can find information about how we collect, use, and disclose PII from users, including children under 13 years of age, in the sections above titled INFORMATION COLLECTED, HOW INFORMATION IS USED, DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION, MARKETING AND ADVERTISING, and NINTENDO ZONE. You have the option of consenting to Nintendos collection and use of your childs PII without consenting to the disclosure of that information with third parties. In addition, Nintendo is prohibited from conditioning your childs participation in an activity on the childs disclosing more personal informa-
tion than is reasonably necessary to participate in such activity. You may review and have deleted your childs PII, and refuse to permit further collection or use of your childs PII, by contacting the Nintendo 3DS Privacy Policy Administrator via email at privacypolicy@noa.nintendo.com, by phone at 1-888-977-7627, or by regular mail at Nintendo of America Inc., Attn: Online Privacy Policy Administrator, 4600 150th Avenue NE, Redmond, WA 98052, U.S.A. Before responding to your request to review PII collected from your child, Nintendo may require that you follow reasonable procedures to help verify your identity as the childs parent and may deny any request that fails to follow these procedures. If you choose to have your childs PII deleted or refuse to permit further collection or use of your childs PII, your child will be able to continue using the Nintendo 3DS System, except your childs use of certain features of the Nintendo 3DS Service, Software, and Content that require the disclosure of certain PII may be limited or unavailable. Please note that third-party game publishers, application providers, and content providers may collect, use, and disclose your childs personal information through the Nintendo 3DS System when your child uses the third-partys Software or Content. Nintendo is not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties, and we recommend that you review their privacy notices before your child provides or exchanges any PII through third-party Software or Content. We strongly recommend that you supervise your childrens use of the Nintendo 3DS System, Nintendo 3DS Service, Software, and Content at all times. You can restrict your childrens use of certain features of the Nintendo 3DS System by setting up the Nintendo 3DS Parental Controls. For a detailed description of the Nintendo 3DS System wireless communication features and Parental Controls, please see the Nintendo 3DS System Opera-
tions Manual included with your Nintendo 3DS System. This Operations Manual is also available at support.nintendo.com. SECURITY We have established reasonable safeguards to help ensure the security, integrity and privacy of the PII submitted or collected from the Nintendo 3DS System, Nintendo 3DS Service, Software, or Content. We also have implemented reasonable security measures to help protect information under our control against loss, misuse or alteration. While we strive to safeguard your PII, no data storage system or transmission of data over the Internet or any other public network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Please note that information collected by third parties, including a Third Party Content Provider, may not have the same security protections as information you submit to us, and we are not responsible for protecting the security of such information. If you install unauthorized applications or content on your Nintendo 3DS System or make unauthorized modifications to the Nintendo 3DS System, your PII may be compromised. Nintendo is not responsible for any data collection, use or disclosure from any Nintendo 3DS System with unauthor-
ized applications or applications installed. OPTING-OUT OF INFORMATION COLLECTION You may use the Nintendo 3DS System without disclosing PII; however, some features and applications may not be available to you. You can opt-out of the collection of PII by turning off wireless communications on your Nintendo 3DS System. You also may be able to opt-out of some types of information collection through the Nintendo 3DS System settings and Parental Controls. DISABLING AND REMOVING INFORMATION STORED ON YOUR NINTENDO 3DS SYSTEM Certain PII about you that you disclose when communicating with third parties or using your Nintendo 3DS System may be stored on your Nintendo 3DS System.

The system can also do this while playing a game or in Sleep Mode (power is on, but the system is closed). NOTE: Data received via SpotPass is saved on the SD Memory Card. The StreetPass feature allows the Nintendo 3DS system to automatically search for and communi-
cate with other Nintendo 3DS systems and to exchange information with them as you walk by. 3D photos Notifications System updates Free software Other information The Notification LED indicates the status of the system (see page 12). To connect to a wireless LAN access point, you will need to configure the Internet settings for your Nintendo 3DS system
(see page 59). Within the service area of a Nintendo Zone or other wireless services, you can connect to the Internet without configur-
ing your Internet settings. SpotPass may not be available depending on the play environment or the software you are using. SpotPass is also not available during local communication (see page 27). If you turn wireless communication off with the wireless switch, the system will not be able to use communication features. NOTE: The Notification LED may not light for some types of data. Keeping your system charged Your system includes a charging cradle to make charging easy. When not in use, you can put the Nintendo 3DS system in Sleep Mode and keep it in the charging cradle, so it stays fully charged and can still communicate using the SpotPass feature. See page 21 for more information on battery endurance. If the system is in Sleep Mode (turned on but closed) or certain other modes, and you pass someone who has enabled StreetPass for the same software, you will exchange game data with them. (If you dont want to allow data exchange, you can disable wireless communication.) If StreetPass is successful... The Notification LED will light green if StreetPass data has been exchanged. A message will appear on your notification list
(see page 42 for more information on the Notifica-
tions application and receiving messages). StreetPass settings for Nintendo 3DS software are saved on the system. The data you transmit with StreetPass varies depending on the software using this feature. Each software program has its own StreetPass settings. Up to 12 Nintendo 3DS software titles can use StreetPass simultaneously. Some Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi software have a similar feature called tag mode. (The name for this mode may vary depending on the game you are playing.) Tag mode is only active when the system is in Sleep Mode while the software and tag mode feature are in use. When tag mode is in use, the StreetPass feature will not work for Nintendo 3DS software. If you turn the power off or disable wireless communication, the system cannot communicate. StreetPass may not be available depending on the play environment or the software you are using. StreetPass does not work if you are connected to the Internet or are using local communication (see page 27). 4 5 Table of Contents Health and Safety Information and Usage Guidelines Health and Safety Information Usage Guidelines 8 8 10 Basic Operations 12 Nintendo 3DS Components Using the Touch Screen and Stylus Using the stylus Calibrating the Touch Screen Charging the Battery Pack Battery charging procedure using the charging cradle Power On/Off and Basic Configuration Sleep Mode and turning your system off Configuring System Settings for the first time Using the keyboard Power LED status Battery endurance Viewing and Adjusting the 3D Image To view the best-quality 3D images Adjusting the depth of the 3D images Using SD Memory Cards About SD Card capacity Copying files Using Software HOME Menu Steps and Play Coins Scrolling, changing the display, and moving icons Communication modes 12 15 15 15 16 17 18 18 18 20 21 21 22 22 23 24 25 25 26 26 26 27 27 Software icons Starting a software application Suspending or exiting software Instruction manuals for software applications Screen brightness and power-saving mode Taking photos with the Nintendo 3DS camera Using Game Cards Using Downloaded Software Game Notes Friend List Registering friends Editing your friend card / Viewing friend cards Communicating with friends Friend-list settings Notifications To receive notifications To view notifications Internet Browser Nintendo 3DS Camera About shooting photos and videos Nintendo 3DS camera functions Viewing photos and videos Nintendo 3DS Sound Mii Maker StreetPass Mii Plaza Nintendo eShop Downloadable software Requirements for downloading software AR Games Face Raiders 28 29 29 30 30 31 32 34 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 42 43 44 46 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 52 52 54 55 Consumer Information Replacing the Battery Pack Troubleshooting Video and Computer Game Software Rating Information Warranty and Service Information Regulations for Equipment Use in U.S.A. and Canada Nintendo 3DS System Privacy Policy Nintendo 3DS Code of Conduct Legal Notices Specifications 91 82 84 91 92 93 94 98 99 100 Activity Log Nintendo Zone Viewer Download Play System Configuration System Settings Internet Settings Internet connection requirements Configure your Internet settings Setup using Search for Access Point Setup using Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) Setup using AOSS SpotPass Settings Nintendo DS Connections Other Information If an Error Code is displayed during setup Parental Controls Content or features that can be limited Configuring Parental Controls Suspending, changing, or removing restrictions If you forget your PIN or secret question answer Data Management Other Settings Outer Cameras System Transfer System Update Format System Memory 56 57 57 58 58 59 60 61 62 64 65 66 66 67 67 68 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 76 81 81 6 7 n o i t a m r o f n I y t e f a S d n a h t l a e H H e a l t h a n d S a f e t y I n f o r m a t i o n Health and Safety Information and Usage Guidelines Important Safety Information Read the following warnings before setup or use of the Nintendo 3DS system.

IMPORTANT: The Nintendo 3DS AC adapter, Model No. WAP-002(USA), is for use only with the Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo DSi, and Nintendo DSi XL portable video game systems. It is not compatible with any other Nintendo system. Do not use the AC adapter with voltage transformers, dimmer switches, or any other equipment. It is only for use in a standard 120-volt AC wall outlet. Battery information k c a P y r e t t a B e h t g n g r a h C i Battery recharge time is approximately 3 1/2 hours It takes about 3 1/2 hours to charge the battery pack with the power off, although this will vary depending on the remaining charge when you begin to recharge the battery. You can use the system while the battery is charging, but this will increase the recharging time. Optimal charging temperature is between 40 and 95 Fahrenheit (5-35 Celsius) Ambient temperature above or below these temperatures may permanently decrease the life of the battery pack and adversely affect the ability of the battery to charge. The battery pack can be recharged approximately 500 times Battery life will decrease over time. After 500 recharges, battery life may be only 70% of the battery life when new. If usage time gets very short, replace the battery pack Battery packs become worn with repeated charge/discharge cycles, and the amount of time they can be used when fully charged will decrease gradually over time. If you feel the usage time has dropped off noticeably, replace the battery (see page 82). 1 2 3 1 Insert the DC plug from the AC adapter into the AC adapter connector on the back of the Nintendo 3DS charging cradle. Be sure to insert it straight into the connector. 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. Place the Nintendo 3DS system on top of the charging cradle. It will click into place. NOTE: Fit the front edge of the system into the cradle first. If you place it in the cradle by fitting in the back edge or a side edge first, it sometimes cannot click into place correctly. Do not use excessive force.

If the power LED turns red, save your game and charge the system. If you put the system into Sleep Mode while the power LED is a steady blue light, the LED will slowly brighten and darken. Battery endurance The battery endurance times are estimates. They will vary depending on factors such as the software being played, the amount of data received by wireless communication, and the ambient temperature. Using the camera features may also reduce the battery endurance times shown below. Approximate play times:
Nintendo 3DS software 3-5 hours Nintendo DS software 5-8 hours Longer Battery endurance time Shorter Dim Screen brightness Bright The screen brightness setting affects the battery endurance time. The factory setting is 5 for more information on adjusting screen brightness, see page 30. NOTE: Power-saving mode will increase the battery endur-
ance by automatically adjusting the screen brightness and color based on what is being displayed at the time. For more information on power-saving mode, see page 30. If you put the system in Sleep Mode when not using it, you can reduce power consumption while still being able to send and receive information from StreetPass and SpotPass via the wireless communication features. If the system is fully charged and put into Sleep Mode, the system's battery endurance time in Sleep Mode is roughly 3 days. The power LED slowly brightens and darkens while the system is in Sleep Mode. NOTE: Depending on the software you are using, sometimes closing the system will not cause the system to enter Sleep Mode. In these cases the power LED will remain steadily lit. (For example, when listening to music with Nintendo 3DS Sound.) 20 21 Viewing and Adjusting the 3D Image The upper 3D screen allows you to view stereoscopic 3D images. You can adjust the apparent depth of these images with the 3D depth slider. The Nintendo 3DS system uses binocu-
lar parallax (the fact that your left and right eyes are located a short distance apart, causing them to see different images) to produce 3D images with a feeling of depth. Image for right eye Image for left eye 3D image If you view the 3D screen from the correct distance, it displays an image for your left eye in such a way that only your left eye can see it, and an image for your right eye in such a way that only your right eye can see it. Binocular parallax then allows you to see 3D depth in the image. s n o i t a r e p O c i s a B e g a m I j D 3 e h t g n i t s u d A d n a g n w e i V i Viewing the 3D screen from a diagonal or tilted position, or viewing it with the system held vertically, will not produce a 3D effect. Viewing it this way could cause you to see double images overlapped or cause the screen to appear black. To view the best-quality 3D images 1 View the screen from directly in front. 2 Hold the screen 10 to 14 inches
(2535 centimeters) from your eyes. Adjust the distance for the easiest viewing of 3D images. 1014 25cm35cm 22 Adjusting the depth of the 3D images You can use the 3D depth slider to adjust the apparent depth when viewing 3D images. If it is difficult to view the image with the 3D slider moved up to the maximum (with the depth set as deep as it will go), try moving the slider to the minimum and then increasing it in small steps until you find a level where it is easy for you to view the 3D images. Once your eyes are accustomed to 3D images, you may be able to achieve the best-quality image by moving the 3D slider up. 3D depth slider 3D LED Lights up when 3D images are supported by the software you are using. B a s i c O p e r a t i o n s Greater depth 3D depth adjustment Less depth Move the 3D depth slider down to its lowest position to switch to 2D (flat) display. If the 3D LED is not lit, moving the 3D slider toward 3D will not produce a 3D image. Some software switches between 2D and 3D imagery. With this software, moving the 3D slider does not change the intensity of the 3D effect. It may be difficult to see the 3D effect in locations with strong direct light, such as sunlight. A note about viewing 3D images IMPORTANT: The ability to view 3D images may vary from person to person, depending on physical condition, content of images, and the environment you are viewing them in. A small percentage of people may not be able to see 3D images at all. If you see double images or have difficulty seeing the 3D effect, turn the 3D effect off with the 3D depth slider and refrain from using it. The 3D feature can also be turned off with Parental Controls in System Settings - see page 58 for more information. Be sure to read the Health and Safety information regarding 3D images at the beginning of this manual
(see page 8). NOTE: You can use Parental Controls to restrict the display of 3D images (see page 68). i V i e w n g a n d A d u s t i n g t h e 3 D j I m a g e 23 Using SD Memory Cards The Nintendo 3DS uses SD Memory Cards up to 2GB in size and SDHC Memory Cards of 4GB and larger. The Nintendo 3DS system comes with an SD Memory Card inserted into the SD Card slot. With SD Memory Cards
(SD Cards), you will be able to save photos you have taken with the system or play music saved to the SD Card. (The data that can be saved to an SD Card varies depending on the software.) Software that you have downloaded, other than DSiWare (see page 52), is saved to the SD Card. NOTE: Downloaded software that has been saved on several cards cannot be re-saved onto a single card. s n o i t a r e p O c i s a B Using miniSD Cards or microSD Cards (sold separately) These require an SD Card adapter (sold separately). IMPORTANT: Inserting or removing a miniSD Card or microSD Card while the card adapter is still inserted in the system could cause the system to be damaged or mal-
function, or cause loss of data. Always insert and remove the entire card adapter. Removing an SD Card Make sure the power is off. IMPORTANT: To prevent damage to the system or the SD Card, do not remove or insert the SD card while the system is on, unless instructed to do so by the software you are using. Doing so may destroy data. 1 2 Open the SD Card slot cover and press on the end of the card until it clicks and partially ejects from the slot. Grasp the SD Card and remove from the card slot. s d r a C y r o m e M D S g n i s U Inserting an SD Card 1 Open the SD Card slot cover. IMPORTANT: Do not pull or twist the slot cover forcefully. Doing so could stretch or deform it, which could prevent the cover from closing correctly. 2 Insert the SD Card. Insert the SD Card into the SD Card slot until it clicks into place, making sure the label side faces down. Close the SD Card slot cover. Label faces down SD Card write-protection switch In the down position, the SD Card write-protection switch will prevent you from saving or erasing data on the card.

Write-protection switch 24 B a s i c O p e r a t i o n s U s i n g S D M e m o r y C a r d s About SD Card capacity If you begin to run out of room on an SD Card, first try deleting undesired photos, sound files, or software using the Data Management feature in System Settings (see page 72). If you still need more room, you can purchase a higher-capacity SD Card and move all of the files onto the new SD Card. Use a PC that has an SD Card slot or a commercially available SD Card reader/writer to transfer files. PC Nintendo 3DS folder High-capacity SD Card IMPORTANT: Downloadable software and its save data are saved in the Nintendo 3DS folder. (Photo data is not included.) Please do not alter, move, or erase files or change the names of the files in the Nintendo 3DS folder. Copying files Please make sure to copy each of the pertinent folders within the Nintendo 3DS folder. If you copy software to a new SD Card, play it, and save your progress, the same software on the old SD Card may become unusable. You cannot use multiple copies of the software. If you copy software to a new SD Card, use the new SD Card and do not use the original data. Precautions about copying files You cannot recombine downloadable software whose folders have been saved to multiple SD Cards. If you copy data to a new card and then overwrite that data by re-copying it, that data will become unusable. If you individually copy the files in the Nintendo 3DS folder, the Nintendo 3DS system will not recognize them. You must copy each folder in the Nintendo 3DS folder without altering the contents. 25 Using Software HOME Menu The HOME Menu will display after you turn the system on.

Make sure the Game Card is for your region (see the Game Card package for this information). An error message appeared when playing Nintendo DS or Nintendo DSi software:
An error has occurred. Press and hold the POWER Button to turn the system off. Please refer to the Operations Manual for details Turn off your system, then on again. Try repeating the same action that caused the error message to occur. If the same error occurs again, please visit support.nintendo.com for assistance and additional troubleshooting and repair options, or call 1-800-255-3700. I cant see the 3D effect in images taken with the outer cameras. Make sure the image was taken with the outer cameras, not the inner camera. Make sure the lenses for the outer cameras are clean and free of dirt or dust. Clean with a soft, dry cloth if necessary. Make sure there isnt a strong light such as direct sunlight shining on the camera lenses. IMPORTANT: If your Nintendo 3DS system has been subjected to a physical shock or high temperatures, this could change the alignment of the outer cameras and affect the 3D image quality. If you think your system may be affected by this, see page 74 for more information on realigning the cameras. When I take pictures with the Nintendo 3DS, the colors dont seem correct. Check the camera mode settings for the cameras (see page 47). If you adjusted the settings for the cameras, try taking additional photos to see if the problem was corrected. The screen brightness or image colors change, or bright colors appear pale. If power-saving mode is on, these may be adjusted automatically to save battery power. For normal appearance, turn the power-saving mode off (see page 30). Some pixels on either the upper or lower screen are always dark or lit. Due to the characteristics of liquid crystal displays, a small number of pixels may not illuminate, or may always stay lit. This is normal and not considered a defect unless the number of pixels that dont function normally increase over time. The brightness or color between the upper and lower screens seems different. The specifications of the upper and lower screens are different so the appearance of images may be different. This is normal and is not considered a defect. T r o u b l e s h o o t i n g C o n s u m e r I n f o r m a t i o n 85 The system registers control input when you arent operating the controls, or the controls dont seem to operate correctly. If you use excessive force to operate the Circle Pad, or you use the Circle Pad continuously for a long period of time, in very rare cases the Circle Pad may start registering incorrect input and need to be calibrated. Use the calibration procedure in System Settings to recalibrate the Circle Pad (see page 73). NOTE: You can also go directly to the Circle Pad calibration procedure by following this procedure. First turn the power off. Then hold down the L Button, R Button, and Y Button and turn the system on as shown below. While holding, press The screen image does not match my movement, or moves when Im not moving the system (for software that requires the system to be moved during game play). The Nintendo 3DS systems built-in motion sensor may need to be recalibrated. This can be caused by sudden drastic temperature changes or by a strong impact to the system. To recalibrate the motion sensor, follow these steps:
The Touch Screen doesnt seem to operate or respond correctly to stylus input. The Touch Screen may need to be recalibrated. Use the calibration procedure in System Settings to recalibrate the Touch Screen (see page 73). NOTE: You can also go directly to the Touch Screen calibration procedure by following this procedure. First turn the power off. Then hold down the L Button, R Button, and X Button and turn the system on as shown below. While holding, press If you have attached a screen protector (sold separately) incorrectly to the Touch Screen, try removing it and using the Touch Screen again. If it operates correctly, either try reattaching the screen protector, carefully following the instructions included with it, or avoid using one. (Please use screen protectors officially licensed by Nintendo.) Not aligned correctly Dirt or air bubbles present g n i t o o h s e l b u o r T n o i t a m r o f n I r e m u s n o C 86 While the HOME Menu is displayed, press for three seconds. and hold and When the Motion Sensor Calibration screen ap-
pears, lay the system on a flat horizontal surface such as a tabletop and tap either Calibrate or Revert to Default Settings. NOTE: If you use the Calibrate option, the system will calibrate the motion sensor based on the system being located on a flat horizontal surface, rather than returning to the factory default settings. There is no sound from the speakers. Check to make sure there are no headphones plugged into the system, as the speakers do not operate when headphones are plugged into the audio jack. Try adjusting the volume control to make sure the volume is not turned off. There is no sound from the headphones. Try adjusting the volume control to make sure the volume is not turned off. Make sure the headphones are fully inserted all the way into the audio jack. The microphone doesnt seem to work or recognize sounds (including headset microphones). Make sure the software you are using includes microphone features. Confirm that the microphone is operating correctly by performing a microphone test in System Settings (see page 73). Some voices may be difficult for the system to recognize. Try having a different person speak the same word or phrase to verify if this is the problem. The microphone seems to respond on its own, or there is feedback from the speak-
ers (including headset microphones). The microphone may be responding either to ambient noise in the environment or to noise coming from the speakers. Try to remove the source of the noise or move to another location. You can also try lowering the speaker volume, as shown below, or use headphones. NOTE: If the speakers are emitting odd or high-pitched noises, this may be caused by feedback from the microphone. Lower-
ing the volume should solve this problem. T r o u b l e s h o o t i n g C o n s u m e r I n f o r m a t i o n 87 Check the 3D LED. Not all software includes 3D images, and the 3D LED will light up if 3D images can be viewed. 3D images cant be seen or are difficult to see. Make sure you are not using Nintendo DS or Nintendo DSi software, which do not support 3D image display. Make sure that this feature is not restricted by Parental Controls. If this is the case, you can either enter a PIN to temporar-
ily turn off Parental Controls, or you can reconfigure Parental Controls. See Parental Controls in System Settings for more information (page 58). Be aware that 3D images can only be displayed on the upper screen. Make sure the 3D depth slider is not set all the way to the bottom of its range (in the off position). Make sure you are holding the Nintendo 3DS in the proper position to best view 3D images (see page 22). If your left and right eyes have different visual abilities, this can make 3D images difficult to see. If you use corrective eye wear, they may help you to see 3D images. Avoid conditions where direct sunlight or other strong light is reflecting off the screen. NOTE: The ability to view 3D images varies from individual to individual. In rare cases, some individuals may be unable to see 3D images or may only be able to see double images. If this is the case, the 3D screen should be set to display 2D images only by sliding the 3D depth slider all the way to the bottom of its range. WARNING: The 3D feature is only for children 7 and older. The cameras dont recognize my face. In certain software titles, the cameras are used to recognize facial features. Observe the following guidelines to improve the recognition process. g n i t o o h s e l b u o r T n o i t a m r o f n I r e m u s n o C Take photos in a well-lit area Face the screen directly Move your bangs so the cameras can recognize your eyebrows Remove your glasses if you use them The SD Card functions dont seem to work. Check to make sure the SD Card is installed correctly (see page 24). Try checking the operation of the SD Card on a PC that has an SD Card reader. I cant view photos saved to an SD Card. The Nintendo 3DS system can only view photos taken by the Nintendo 3DS Camera software. Photos taken by digital cameras or cell phones cannot be viewed. Music files saved on an SD Card wont play in Nintendo 3DS Sound. Check to make sure the files are in a format compatible with Nintendo 3DS Sound. The files must be in the following format:
AAC files with .m4a, .mp4, and .3gp extensions, or MP3 files with .mp3 extensions. Bit rate of 16kbps - 320kbps and sampling frequency of 32kHz - 48kHz. NOTE: The Nintendo 3DS cannot play copy-protected music files. Music files saved on an SD Card wont display in Nintendo 3DS Sound. Make sure the SD Card is correctly inserted into the SD Card slot (see page 24). Make sure the files are in a format compatible with Nintendo 3DS Sound (see the troubleshooting step above for compatible file formats). Make sure the files are not saved in the Private folder inside the Nintendo 3DS folder on the SD Card (this folder is visible when viewing the SD Card contents on a PC). The contents of this folder are not visible in Nintendo 3DS Sound. The SD Card must not have more than 3,000 music files on it. The SD Card must not have more than 1,000 file folders on it. An individual folder must not have more than 100 music files in it. NOTE: If you have more than one folder with the same name, the music files in each folder will be combined and displayed as one folder. An individual folder must not have more than seven subfolders (eight levels including the main folder). The Download Play feature doesnt work. Make sure this feature is not restricted by Parental Controls, either with Software Ratings restrictions or with Download Play restrictions. If this is the case, you can either enter a PIN to temporarily turn off Parental Controls, or you can reconfigure Parental Controls. See Parental Controls in System Settings for more information (page 58). The system is not counting step numbers accurately. If your system is open, it cannot count steps. Steps are only counted when both the power is on and the system is closed. If you carry your Nintendo 3DS system in a bag that is not closely connected to your body, or you dangle it by a strap or case as you walk, it cannot accurately count your steps. The step numbers will be counted more accurately if you carry your system in a bag connected to your waist (such as a hip pouch). If you play a Nintendo DS or Nintendo DSi software title for long periods of time without exiting, the system can only save up to seven days of information. Intermittently save your progress and exit the software to accurately count steps when using this type of software. See page 26 for more information on the step-counting feature. T r o u b l e s h o o t i n g C o n s u m e r I n f o r m a t i o n The surrounding environment, the color of your hair and beard, or facial and hair decorations can interfere with facial recognition. In rare cases, differences in facial features may make the facial recognition process fail. 88 89 The system suddenly enters Sleep Mode. Check for and remove the following possible external causes:
A strong external magnetic force, such as from an audio speaker, can cause the system to go into Sleep Mode. The Nintendo 3DS system may go into Sleep Mode if it is stacked up with other systems in the Nintendo DS product line. Wireless communication doesnt work or works inconsistently. Check the signal strength icon. If it appears as wireless access point. External causes, such as cell phones, computers, microwaves, or even physical barriers, can interfere with wireless communi-
cations. Check for these conditions and either remove them or move to a different location.

I forgot my PIN and answer to the secret question for Parental Controls The system doesnt recognize AR cards If an AR Card cannot be recognized, please check the following:
Make sure to aim the outer cameras at the AR Card from an appropriate distance and at an appropriate angle. If you are too close, the AR Card may not be recognized. Make sure the entire AR Card is visible on the screen. If part of the card is hidden, it may not be recognized. Make sure the AR Cards are well lit when using them, however avoid bright light that may create reflections on the card surface. Make sure the outer cameras are clean and free of any dust or other foreign material. Make sure the AR cards are place on a flat surface when using them. If an AR Card is bent or folded, it may not be recognized. NOTE: If you lose an AR Card, or if it becomes unreadable, you can download AR Card images from support.nintendo.com/ARcards and then print the images in color and use them as replacement cards. g n i t o o h s e l b u o r T n o i t a m r o f n I r e m u s n o C 90 Video and Computer Game Software Rating Information The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) ratings are designed to provide information about video and computer game content so you can make informed purchasing decisions. ESRB ratings have two parts: rating symbols suggest age appropriateness for the game, and content descriptors indicate elements in a game that may have triggered a particular rating and/or may be of interest or concern. To take full advantage of the ESRB rating system, its important to check both the rating symbol (found on the front of the game box) and the content descriptor (found on the back of the game box).

guard your PII, no data storage system or transmission of data over the Internet or any other public network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Please note that information collected by a Third Party Content Provider may not have the same security protections as information you submit to us, and we are not responsible for protecting the security of such information. If you install unauthorized applications or content on your Nintendo 3DS System or make unauthorized modifications to the Nintendo 3DS System, your PII may be compromised. Nintendo is not responsible for any data collection, use or disclosure from any Nintendo 3DS System with unauthor-
