Basics
The lower LCD screen, or Touch Screen, is touch sensitive. For games that include this game control feature,
operate the screen by using the included stylus. Lightly touch or slide the stylus across the Touch Screen as
shown below.
IMPORTANT STYLUS AND SCREEN GUIDELINES:
• Use the stylus ONLY on the Touch Screen (lower screen).
• Use only enough pressure to operate the game. Excessive pressure may damage
the Touch Screen.
• Do not use the stylus if it is broken.
• Use only a Nintendo licensed stylus on the Touch Screen.
• Replace the smaller stylus in the stylus holder when not in use.
• If you use a screen protector on your Nintendo DSi XL, use only a Nintendo licensed
screen protector.
IMPORTANT: If the Touch Screen becomes dirty or contaminated with foreign material, do not
continue to use your Nintendo DSi XL. It may not work properly and can become more
damaged. Follow the cleaning procedures below. If it still does not work after cleaning, visit
support.nintendo.com for information on repair service.
You can adjust the Touch Screen if it doesn’t seem to respond properly or if the Touch Screen is not
responding to the same place you’re touching it.
• If the Touch Screen is not responding properly, first try removing any screen protectors (sold separately)
that you may have added to your Nintendo DSi XL.
1. Select System Settings from the Nintendo DSi Menu.
2. Select screen number 3 by tapping the #3 box at the top of the screen or by tapping the arrow on
the right side of the screen until you see the screen with the Touch Screen option.
3. Select the Touch Screen option and follow the on-screen instructions.
If you’re still unable to operate the Touch Screen properly...
Try starting up your Nintendo DSi XL at the Touch Screen Calibration screen by following the
procedure below.
1. While holding down the L Button, R Button
and START...
2. Press POWER. (Hold down the L, R, and START Buttons
until the Calibration screen appears.)
3. Follow the on-screen instructions and then turn the power off. Turn the system on again to
check the operation of the Touch Screen.
If the screens on your Nintendo DSi XL have visible smudges, fingerprints, or other foreign material on them,
you can clean them by using a soft clean cloth such as a lens or eyeglass cleaning cloth.
1. Slightly dampen the cloth with water ONLY and wipe off the screens to loosen any dirt or foreign
material.
2. Using a dry cloth, wipe the screens to dry them and finish the cleaning process. If needed, repeat the
process.
