• Tabletop Mode: Undock the console, flip out the kickstand, and use the detached Joy-Cons to play with others on the console's screen.
• Handheld Mode: Attach the Joy-Cons to the console and play on the go, enjoying the game directly on the console's screen.

4. Maintenance

4.1 Care and Cleaning

• Console and Screen: Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to clean the console and screen. Avoid abrasive materials or chemical cleaners.
• Joy-Cons and Dock: Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Ensure all components are dry before use.
• Storage: Store the console and accessories in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

4.2 Battery Information

The Nintendo Switch console contains a built-in rechargeable battery. The Joy-Con controllers also have internal rechargeable batteries. The product package includes 3 AAA batteries, which are typically for accessories like the Joy-Con wrist straps or other peripherals, not the main console or Joy-Cons themselves.

• Charging: Charge the console by placing it in the dock or connecting the AC adapter directly to the console. Joy-Cons charge when attached to the console while it is charging or docked.
• Battery Life: Battery life varies depending on usage and game.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Nintendo Switch, try the following common solutions:

• Console Not Turning On: Ensure the AC adapter is properly connected to the dock and a power outlet, or directly to the console. Try holding the POWER Button for 12 seconds to force a shutdown, then press it again to restart.
• No Display on TV:
  • Verify the HDMI cable is securely connected to both the dock and the TV.
  • Check that your TV is set to the correct HDMI input.
  • Ensure the console is correctly seated in the dock.
  • Try a different HDMI cable or TV input.
• Joy-Cons Not Responding:
  • Ensure Joy-Cons are charged. Attach them to the console or a charging grip.
  • If detached, press any button on the Joy-Con to wake it up.
  • If issues persist, try re-pairing the Joy-Cons from the HOME Menu under "Controllers" > "Change Grip/Order."
• Game Download Issues:
  • Check your internet connection.
