Nintendo DS Lite manual System Setup, Nintendo DS Menu Screen

System Setup

The first time the Nintendo DS is turned on, you will be asked to select the screen language. Use the +Control Pad or stylus to select a language, then touch "Yes" or press the A Button.

Follow the on-screen instructions to input your nickname, screen color, date, time, and month and day of birth (not the year). Press the B Button to step backward through this process if you would like to change the settings. You will be able to change these settings later from the Settings Menu on pages 19-23. For help using the on-screen keyboard, see page 18. At the end of this process, the DS will save your settings and turn off.

Turn the power on to go to the Nintendo DS Menu Screen shown below.
