BATTERY INSTALLATION

Your game system requires 10 batteries —4 type AA in the housing and
3 type AAA in each of the handsets.

Help protect our environment! Senario encourages the use of
rechargeable batteries. Keep one set charged and one in the game so
you’ll always have fresh batteries available!

To Install or Replace Batteries

• Remove the battery cover.

• Remove exhausted batteries and dispose of properly.

• Replace with new batteries. Be sure the positive (+) and negative (-)

ends of the batteries are facing the correct direction.

• Replace the battery cover.

Battery Warnings

• Remove batteries when your game will not be used for a long
time.

• Battery installation should be supervised by an adult.

• Do not mix old and new batteries.

• Do not mix alkaline batteries with standard (carbon-zinc) or

rechargeable batteries.

• Do not mix different brands of batteries.

• Only use batteries of the type recommended in this manual.

• Be sure to insert batteries with correct polarity.

• Remove exhausted batteries from the product.

• Be careful not to short circuit the supply terminals.

• Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries.

Note: When the batteries begin to lose their charge, the Power LED will
dim, and the game will turn itself off. If the game images start to break
up or look jagged, the batteries are probably getting low and need to
be replaced.

CONTROLS & CONNECTIONS

Your game connects to the TV set with a pair of standard RCA plugs.
Most TV sets, video monitors, and VCRs have easily accessible RCA
jacks. These are usually labeled “video” and “audio” or are color coded
to indicate the video connection (yellow) and audio connections (red
and/or white).

The RCA plugs on the game console must be connected to the proper
“input” RCA jacks. Be sure to insert the yellow video jack into the
yellow video socket. The remaining audio plug can be inserted into
either the white or red audio socket on your TV, video monitor, or
VCR.

Note: If your TV, video monitor, or VCR does not have RCA jacks,
you’ll need to purchase a separate A/V adaptor (not included).

USING YOUR GAME SYSTEM

Turning On Your Game

• Make sure your game is turned off before connecting it to your TV
set.

• Turn your TV on and tune it to the A/V channel. This channel is
often called “input”, “auxiliary”, “line”, or even “game”. You might

have to change channels using the original TV, video monitor, or
VCR remote control (as opposed to a universal remote) to access
it. Look for a button on the remote marked “input” or “auxiliary”.

If you are having trouble switching to the INPUT mode, contact the
TV manufacturer or retailer for assistance.

• Slide the game’s power switch to the “ON” position.

• The title screen will appear on your TV set.

Turning Off Your Game

After you have fi nished playing, slide the power switch to the “OFF”
position.

Disconnect the game from the television and switch the channel back to
view regular TV programs.
