How to use

Connect the controller to an available USB port on the Xbox console or Windows PC.

For Windows PCs, ensure the operating system is up to date to guarantee optimal compatibility with plug-and-play controllers.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, connect the controller directly to the console or PC rather than through USB hubs when possible. Keep the cable free from sharp bends and avoid yanking to extend the connector's lifespan. If you experience input issues on PC, check system updates and game controller settings in the operating system or the game.
