2 • Usage Guidelines
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the Pokéwalker accessory, do not place it in a location where excessive
force could be applied, such as your back pants pocket. Sitting on it could result in injury to the user or
damage to the accessory.
•
Remove and dispose of the plastic tab in the battery compartment when you are ready to use the
Pokéwalker for the first time.
•
If you replace the battery or attach the clip connector, make sure that the water- resistant seal is
correctly placed and the screw is securely tightened. This will help prevent any type of moisture from
entering the battery compartment and damaging the accessory or battery. The Pokéwalker is moisture
resistant but may be damaged if immersed in liquid.
•
If the accessory gets dirty, clean it using a soft cloth slightly dampened with water only and a mild soap.
Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Be sure to remove the Pokéwalker accessory from clothing before washing.
4 • Using the Pokéwalker Accessory
Before Use
Remove and dispose of the plastic tab. This allows the battery to
touch the battery contacts and turn the power on. The Pokéwalker
accessory does not have a power switch (see NOTE below).
• If the plastic tab doesn’t completely pull out of the battery
compartment, the Pokéwalker accessory may not operate. If the
accessory does not work after pulling the plastic tab out, remove
the battery cover and battery and check to see if part of the plastic
tab is stuck in the battery compartment. If necessary, carefully
remove any part of the tab left in the battery compartment.
IMPORTANT: Before using this accessory, you must rst make a connection
between the Pokéwalker and your Pokémon HeartGold or SoulSilver Version Game
Card. Please refer to Section 5, and to the instruction booklet included with the
Game Card, for complete information on making this connection.
NOTE: The Pokéwalker does not have an ON/OFF switch and will turn on after you pull the plastic
tab out of the battery compartment. It will enter Sleep Mode automatically when there is no
button operation for 60–90 seconds (it will still be counting steps even in Sleep Mode). To cancel
Sleep Mode, press the Button for .5 seconds.
Remove the plastic tab
by pulling it straight
out of the accessory.
It will appear
like this if it is
completely
removed.

IMPORTANT: For best communication, avoid the following conditions, which can interfere with infrared
communication:
• Objects between the Nintendo DS and the Pokéwalker, or between two Pokéwalker accessories.
• Sunlight or other strong light nearby.
• Other sources of heat, light, or strong electromagnetic energy.
If necessary, remove sources of interference to improve communications.
7 • Carrying the Pokéwalker
You can carry the Pokéwalker accessory in a pocket or bag. You can also attach it with a strap (sold
separately), however it may not measure steps accurately if you carry it using this method.
NOTE: If using a strap, the Pokéwalker should be tucked in a pocket or other location where it doesn’t hang
loosely. This will help prevent inaccurate measurement of steps. IMPORTANT: Do not carry the accessory
in your back pocket. Sitting on it could result in injury to the user or damage to the accessory.
•
The optional clip connector can be used to attach it to a belt or other strap. See Section 10, Changing the
Battery / Clip Connector, for more information.
•
When using the clip connector to attach to a belt, make sure the t is not too tight or too loose. This will
help prevent damage to the clip connector or prevent the accessory from falling o.
•
Periodically check to make sure that the accessory is securely attached to avoid dropping or losing it.
When the battery power gets low, a battery icon will appear (see
illustration) and the battery should be replaced. Before changing
the battery, note the following important information:
• Save the contents of the Pokéwalker to the Game Card
with infrared communications to avoid losing any
information. The Pokéwalker only saves information
This icon will
appear when
battery power
is low
once every hour.
• To restore the correct time to the Pokéwalker accessory, make an infrared communication with
the Game Card after you have installed a new battery.
Battery Life: The battery will last about 4 months if the Pokéwalker accessory is used about 30 minutes a
day and about 10,000 steps are taken. This will vary depending on temperature, the number of steps taken,
how often you actively use the accessory, how often you make an infrared communication, and how often
you press the Button.
1
Using a small “+” style screwdriver, loosen the screw on the back of the accessory and remove the
battery cover (or clip connector if it is already attached).
2
Remove the battery by sliding in the direction of arrow (1) and pulling it out of the battery compartment
in the direction of arrow (2). Replace the battery with a new one. Replace with a new CR2032 type
battery only. Make sure the plus (+) side faces outward.
3
Check to make sure the moisture-resistant seal is properly aligned.
Replace the battery cover. If you are installing the clip connector, make sure the tab is inserted correctly
into the Pokéwalker accessory, or it may not close correctly when the screw is attached.

walked (see illustration) at a normal pace. You must then periodically
transfer this information to the Game Card. This process is described in
Section 5 and in the instruction booklet for the Game Card.
In the following cases, the accessory may not be able to
accurately record information:
•
When walking in a crowd or other situation where you stop and start repeatedly.
•
If the accessory is loose inside a bag or held or attached loosely by a hanging strap.
•
If the movement is dierent from walking, such as jogging, running, or other vigorous activity.
•
If the movement is softened by shuing, walking barefoot, or wearing slippers or sandals.
Number of
steps walked
The accessory can only store a limited amount of information as follows:
Daily number of steps walked Seven days of information
Total number of days the accessory was used and total
Unlimited
number of steps walked
When the amount of information stored for daily number of steps walked is exceeded, the oldest information
will be overwritten. It is recommended that you transfer information to the Game Card every day.
• Deleted information cannot be recovered or transferred to the Game Card
• A single Pokéwalker accessory can only record information for one individual.
9 • Carrying Items in the Pokéwalker Accessory
See the instruction booklet for the Game Card for a detailed description of the following items.
Pokémon taken from the Game Card into the Pokéwalker 1 only
Pokémon captured with the Poké Radar Up to 3
