Setup

1. Charging the Controller

Before first use, fully charge the controller. The built-in rechargeable battery lasts approximately 8 to 10 hours on a full charge.

• Connect the supplied USB charging cable to the USB-C port on the controller.
• Connect the other end of the cable to a USB power source (e.g., Nintendo Switch dock, USB wall adapter, computer USB port).
• The indicator lights on the controller will show charging status. They will typically stop blinking or turn solid when fully charged.

2. Pairing with Nintendo Switch® / Switch® Lite

The NuChamp controller uses Bluetooth for wireless connection.

1. On your Nintendo Switch console, go to the HOME Menu.
2. Select "Controllers", then "Change Grip/Order".
3. On the NuChamp controller, press and hold the Home button for a few seconds until the indicator lights begin to flash rapidly. This indicates the controller is in pairing mode.
4. Once the controller appears on the Switch screen, release the Home button. The indicator lights will become solid, confirming successful pairing.
5. If pairing fails, ensure the controller is charged and try again. You may need to restart your Switch console.

Operating Instructions

Basic Controls

The NuChamp controller functions similarly to official Nintendo Switch Pro Controllers. All standard buttons (A/B/X/Y, D-Pad, Analog Sticks, L/R, ZL/ZR, Plus/Minus, Home, Screenshot) operate as expected in compatible games.

Turbo Function

The controller features a turbo function for rapid firing of buttons.

• To activate Turbo: Press and hold the button you wish to set to turbo (e.g., A button), then press the Turbo button (usually a dedicated button or a combination, refer to specific controller markings if available). The button will now rapidly input when held down.
• To deactivate Turbo: Repeat the process: press and hold the turbo-enabled button, then press the Turbo button again.

Reassignable Pro Paddle Buttons

The controller includes reassignable paddle buttons on the back for advanced customization.

• To assign a paddle button:
  1. Press and hold the Program button (often a small button on the back or bottom of the controller) until an indicator light flashes.
  2. Press the paddle button you wish to assign (e.g., P1).
  3. Press the button you want to map to the paddle (e.g., A, B, X, Y, L, R, ZL, ZR, D-Pad directions).
  4. Press the Program button again to save the assignment. The indicator light will stop flashing.
• To clear a paddle assignment: Repeat the assignment process, but instead of pressing a button to map, press the Program button twice after selecting the paddle.

Motion Controls and Force Feedback (Vibration)

The controller supports motion controls for games that utilize them and provides force feedback (vibration) for immersive gameplay. These features are automatically enabled when connected to the Nintendo Switch.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the controller. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Storage: Store the controller in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
