Before allowing children to use the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system:
1Determine how each child can use the

SELECT A LOCATION FOR YOUR CONSOLE
Prevent the Console from Falling
If the Xbox 360 console falls and hits someone, especially a small child, it could cause serious injury. To reduce the risk of such injuries and damage to the Xbox 360 console, set up the Xbox 360 console according to these instructions. Place the console on a surface that:
•Is flat and level.
•Is stable and not likely to tip over.
•Allows all four feet of the console to be in contact with the surface.
•Is not likely to allow the console to slip or slide off.
•Is clean and free of dust and debris.
If the surface or console feet become dirty or dusty, clean them with a dry cloth. If the console is positioned vertically, put it on a surface where it is not likely to fall if it tips over.
Arrange all cables and cords so that people and pets are not likely to trip over or accidentally pull on them as they move around or walk through the area. When the console is not in use, you may need to disconnect all cables and cords from the front and rear of the console to keep them out of the reach of children and pets. Do not allow children to play with cables and cords.
Prevent the Console from Overheating
Do not block any ventilation openings on the console or power supply. Do not place the console or power supply on a bed, sofa, or other soft surface that may block ventilation openings. Do not place the console or power supply in a confined space, such as a bookcase, rack, or stereo cabinet, unless the space is well ventilated.
Do not place the console or power supply near any heat sources, such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or amplifiers.
Avoid Smoke and Dust
Do not use the console in smoky or dusty locations. Smoke and dust can damage the console, particularly the DVD drive.

IMPORTANT
Stationary images in video games can “burn” into some TV screens, creating a permanent shadow. Consult your TV owner’s manual or manufacturer before playing games.
Connect the Component HD AV Cable
Use your component HD AV cable to connect your console to your TV.
To connect to your standard TV:
1Connect the HD AV cable connector to the
AV port on the console.
2Set the switch on the AV port connector to TV.
3Connect the yellow colour-banded composite signal video connector on the
HD AV cable to the yellow input on your TV. Leave the red, green, and blue colourbanded video connectors unconnected.
4Connect the solid colour left and right (white and red) audio connectors on the HD
AV cable to the audio inputs on your TV or stereo receiver.
For monaural (mono) TVs, which have only one audio input, connect either the right or left audio connector to the audio input.
If your TV has a SCART port, connect the colour-coded connectors to the corresponding jacks on the SCART adapter and connect the SCART adapter to the TV.
5Select the appropriate video input on your TV (see No Picture under “Troubleshooting” for further information).
NOTE
Your Xbox 360 Component HD AV Cable has two distinct sets of connectors on the TV end grouped by audio and video. Do not confuse the red connector from the audio group with the red connector from the video group.
To connect to your high definition TV:
1Connect the HD AV cable connector to the
AV port on the console.
2Set the switch on the AV port connector to
TV or HDTV. The HDTV position should be selected if the TV supports high definition resolutions such as 480p, 720p, 1080i, or
1080p.
3Connect the red, green, and blue colourbanded video connectors on the HD AV cable to the corresponding colour inputs (Y,
Cb/Pb, Cr/Pr) on your TV. Leave the yellow colour-banded composite video connector unconnected.
4Connect the solid colour left and right (white and red) audio connectors on the HD AV cable to the audio inputs on your TV or stereo receiver.
5Select the appropriate video input on your TV (see No Picture under “Troubleshooting” for more information).
After you’ve set up your console, you can configure additional console audio settings and test your connection from the System area of the Xbox Dashboard. But before doing so, proceed through the steps in the following pages for connecting to power, connecting your controller, and other initial settings.
Connect to a Digital Audio System with the Component Cable
If your system (typically, a receiver or amplifier) supports digital audio input, you can connect to digital audio rather than to the standard left and right audio. Digital audio should produce higher-quality sound.
To connect to digital audio:
1Connect your video input as described in the preceding sections.
2Connect your digital audio cable (not included) to the digital audio output on your AV cable and to the digital audio input on your receiver.

3Connect the HDMI AV cable connector to the HDMI AV port (not the standard AV port) on the console.
4Connect the other end of the HDMI AV cable to the HDMI input on your TV.
5Turn on your console. From the System area, select the appropriate high definition video setting for your TV.
Connect to a Stereo Audio System with the HDMI Cable

To connect to stereo audio:
1Connect the HDMI AV cable as described in
“Connect the HDMI AV Cable.”
2Connect the audio adapter cable connector to the AV port (not the HDMI AV port) on your console. Leave the HDMI AV cable connected to your TV for video.
3Connect a standard stereo audio extension cable (sold separately) to the solid colour
Connect to a Digital Audio System with the HDMI Cable
If your system (typically, a receiver or amplifier) has digital audio input, you can connect to digital audio rather than to the standard left and right audio inputs. Digital audio input should produce higher-quality sound than standard left and right stereo audio.
Other AV Input
You can also connect to additional TV input types by using the Xbox 360 SCART Cable or the Xbox 360 VGA HD AV Cable (both sold separately). For more information, go to www.xbox.com/setup.
left and right (white and red) audio connectors on the audio adapter cable.

Electrical Safety
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 video game and entertainment system.
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 authorised repair centre. 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, contact Xbox Customer 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. Only use 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 Xbox 360 power supply unit and the Xbox 360 console or between the power cord and the Xbox
360 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 hang from either power cord.
If a power cord or power supply becomes damaged in any way, stop using it immediately and contact Xbox Customer Support for a replacement.
Unplug your Xbox 360 console during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
Always connect the power cords according to the following instructions:
1Fully insert the power supply cord into the Xbox 360 console.
2Plug the AC power cord into the power supply until it stops.
3Plug the other end of the AC power cord into the wall outlet.
