Wii Remote Configurations
• The Wii Remote can be used by itself, or in different configurations when connected up to other
Wii accessories. These configurations can be used right or left handed.
• The configuration will depend on the game you are playing. Review the instruction booklet of the game
you are playing for specific controller requirements.

■ Holding the Wii Remote
Depending on the game, the way you hold and operate the Wii Remote will vary. You may need to hold the
Wii Remote in either one or two hands. Read the instruction booklet for the game you are playing for
information about what kind of gameplay control is required for that game. But whatever the game, always
keep hold of the Wii Remote during game play and always wear the Wii Remote Wrist Strap.
1. Open the lever on the strap lock and place your hand through the Wii Remote Wrist Strap. Hold the
Wii Remote firmly in your hand.
2. Silde 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 Wii Remote Wrist Strap in place. Close
the lever to hold the strap lock in place.
ALLOW ADEQUATE ROOM AROUND YOU DURING GAME PLAY
• You will probably move around while using the Wii Remote, so be careful that the areas that you might move
into are kept clear. Make sure that furniture, objects and other people are out of the play area so that you
do not accidentally bump into them while playing. Also, be careful of any objects above you (e.g. lamps)
that you could collide with if you jump or raise your hands above your head. Of course, such movements
are not necessary as the Wii Remote reacts to minor motion. Remember to take extra care if you have low
ceilings.
• Stand at least 1 metre away from the television when using the Wii Remote.
Open the lever on the strap lock and place your hand through the Wii Remote Wrist Strap. Hold the Wii Remote
firmly in your hand.
• If your hands become sweaty or wet for any other reason, stop playing and dry your hands before continuing.
• The Wii Remote responds to minor movements, so excessive or forceful actions are not necessary.
We therefore recommend that you do not use excessive, rapid, violent or swinging motions as these might
cause you to accidentally let go of the Wii Remote and may break the wrist strap. This could result in
injury to people nearby or cause damage to other objects or the Wii Remote, should you lose your grip.
