Using the Nunchuk
Setup and Use of the Nunchuk (RVL-004)
CAUTION: To help prevent losing your grip on the Wii Remote and Nunchuk and reduce the risk of causing
damage to the Wii Remote, the Nunchuk and surrounding objects, or injury to other people, should you
accidentally let go of the Wii Remote or Nunchuk during game play, it is important that you always keep a
firm grip on the Nunchuk and the Wii Remote. Wear the Wii Remote Wrist Strap at all times, and never let the
Nunchuk swing loose. Please ensure there is sufficient distance from other people and objects when using
the Wii Remote and Nunchuk to avoid colliding with other persons or things.
Be sure to install the Nunchuk as described. Use the Connector Hook on the Nunchuk plug with the Wii
Remote Wrist Strap cord to prevent the Nunchuk plug from becoming separated from the External
Extension Connector on the Wii Remote and striking objects or people.
Not suitable for children under 36 months of age. The cord of the Nunchuk can coil around the neck.

! WARNING
1. Feed the cord on the Wii Remote Wrist
Strap through the Connector Hook.
2. Insert the Nunchuk plug into the
External Extension Connector on
the bottom of the Wii Remote until
it “clicks” into place.
3. Open the lever on the strap lock and
place your hand through the Wii Remote
Wrist Strap and hold the Wii Remote
firmly in your hand. Slide the strap lock
up so that the wrist 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. (Review
