wireless Controller doesn't work
Press the Xbox Guide button to turn on the
wireless controller, then connect it to your
console (see "Connect Additional Controllers").
If lights spin longer than 15 seconds when
connecting:
• Move the controller closer to the console.
• Make sure the batteries are fresh.
• Keep the console and controller at least
three feet away from large metal objects,
such as file cabinets and refrigerators.
• Metallic decorations or stickers on the
console or controller can interfere with
wireless controller performance. Remove
decorations and try connecting again.
• Make sure the front of the console is
positioned in the direction of the
controller and away from nearby walls.
• Cordless phones (2.4 GHz), wireless LANs,
wireless video transmitters, microwave
ovens, some mobile/cell phones, and
Bluetooth headsets can interfere with the
operation of the controller. Turn these off
or unplug them and retry connecting.
• If nothing else works, turn off your
console, remove and reinsert the batteries
into the controller, then reconnect the
controller to the console.
